ELECT 018 Robotics / Automation /Mechatronics Systems

Units: 4
Prerequisites: ELECT 017 Robotics / Automation Introduction, and ELECT 011 AC and DC Network Analysis or ELEC 030 Fundamentals of Electricity, each with a grade of “C” or better.
This course is designed to offer instruction in introductory industrial robotics and automation. Manufacturing and materials processing has moved into the age of automation. This technology combines electronics, computers, mechanics, pneumatics, and hydraulics into an interrelated system. Mechatronics is the technical name for this topic of study and requires knowledge of each of the technologies incorporated. This course of study will enhance students` understanding in each of the areas, enabling them to make usable applications controlled through a programmable device. Transferability of units will be determined by the receiving authority. (CSU)
