Description

ELT 275 Robotics and Control Systems
2 Credits (1 Lecture 1 Lab 0 Shop)
3 Hrs/Wk (1 Hr. Lecture 2 Hrs. Lab) *15 wks
This course in robotics focuses on advanced applications of robotics and automation in industry. Students will write V+ programs to control a SCARA (Selective Compliance Assembly Robotic Arm) industrial robot. They will also use digital and analog programmable logic controllers in conjunction with robot I/O to form com plete workcells. Man Machine Interface (MMI) will be used to integrate automation. This course includes an examination of Servo motors and feedback devices, End-Of-Arm tooling, and pneumatic systems using directional valves. Prerequisites: ELT 221 and 271.
