ELT235 — Integrated Manufacturing Systems
ELT 235 - Integrated Manufacturing Systems ELT 235 - Integrated Manufacturing Systems Description: Concepts and technologies of integrated manufacturing systems including robotics, instrumentation, computer numerical control (CNC), programmable logic controllers (PLCs), supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, industrial communication protocols, and human-machine interfaces (HMIs). Emphasis is placed on system design, interoperability, and real-world applications. Hands-on experience with integrated manufacturing systems. Describe common communication protocols used with robots and other manufacturing equipment. Set up a variety of HMIs. Integrate manufacturing systems including a robot to perform a manufacturing task. Select appropriate equipment for an integrated manufacturing work cell given an example task. Identify tasks suitable for collaborative robots and traditional industrial robots.
