  • Locate & identify the main components of the robot, including the controller, manipulator arm, teach pendant, standard operator panel, dress-out, cables, connections, and end-of-arm-tooling or vacuum components. (Walk through with the Instructor—Amtec t
  • Identify & practice all safety considerations related to operating the robotic cell.
  • Demonstrate the proper power-up and shut-down sequence of the robotic cell.
• Hydraulics
  • Apply safe working practices when working with hydraulic systems.
  • Identify the schematic symbols for the components of an industrial hydraulic system.
  • Match the function of the components of an industrial hydraulic system with proper description of their function and their symbol.
  • Calculate head pressure.
• Industrial Electronics
  • Match the following list of electronic components to their proper description of operation and/or construction and to their correct schematic symbol: - Diode - Zener Diode - Light Emitting Diode (LED)
  • Given a schematic, construct an AC electrical circuit that uses a diode and resistor, and then use an oscilloscope to show how the diode will rectify on only one alternation of a sine wave.
  • Given a schematic, construct an AC electrical circuit that uses two diodes and a resistor, and then use an oscilloscope to show how the two diodes can pass current on both alternations of a sine wave.
  • Construct a circuit to couple an AC source voltage (switched on and off) to a DC signal (switching on and off) using an optical isolator IC.
