Vision and Smart Sensors In this course, learners will utilize 2D cameras, lighting systems and smart sensors in machine applications to provide imaging-based automatic inspection and analysis for such applications as automatic inspection, process control and robot guidance. Learner will use vision systems to: sort good and bad parts; identify, position and orient objects images for robot guidance and orientation using edge detection; blob detection; pattern recognition; image acquisition; and bar code and QR code recognition. Learners will integrate smart sensors into PLC machine applications. Upon completion of this course, learners will apply camera and smart sensors into a machine process application. MFGMNT-135 Credits: 4 Digital Electronics This is an introductory course in digital logic devices and circuits. Students learn the basic logic functions, sequential and synchronous logic circuitry, general applications, and troubleshooting techniques through hands-on lab work. Students will learn interfacing techniques to integrate with manufacturing equipment. The computer will be used to generate circuit simulations and technical reports. MFGMNT-140 Credits: 3 PLC Systems Basics This course is a study of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) used in advanced manufacturing systems. The history and principles of operation and the installation, programming and maintenance of the programmable logic controllers (PLC) are covered in lecture. Basic programming instructions are covered in lecture and lab, and downloaded and simulated on PLC workstations. MFGMNT-190 Credits: 2 Design Problems This course introduces the students to sensors and controls in advanced manufacturing systems. The students will work with advanced manufacturing Controllers and PLCs to control a manufacturing system. Data collection and system controls will be implemented and installed to manipulate a manufacturing system or simulation. The final system will be properly documented with operation manuals and service manuals to indicate troubleshooting procedures. MFGMNT-332 Credits: 2 Rigging and Lifting This system teaches how to safely move loads of different shapes and sizes using a variety of methods. As well as additional types of rigging skills including equipment movement, wire mesh slings, synthetic slings, knots, load turning and cranes. This course includes additional hoists, slings, loads and student learning materials for theory and lab. This course also covers the operation, function and maintenance of wire mesh slings and fiber ropes, load movement, and rigging knots. Proper rigging techniques are vital for efficient movement of loads and workers safety.

Mechanical Drives 2 Mechanical Drives 2 covers heavy duty V-belt drives including conventional, multiple, wedge and variable speed V-belt drives. This course describes V-belt selection and maintenance by covering V-belt size specification, component identification and troubleshooting. Learners will develop fundamental knowledge of synchronous belt drives, lubrication concepts, precision shaft alignment and coupling. Also covered are heavy-duty chain drives which describes silent chain drives, multiple strand systems, chain selection, chain lubrication, chain maintenance and troubleshooting.
