Automation & Material Handling Level 2
In the Automation and Material Handling CELL, students discover the impact of automation on modern manufacturing and learn to implement robotic systems, using three types of robots, conveyance systems and feeders.
Students learn traditional programming logic and code using the robotic arm. Then, they advance to writing ladder logic programs that allow the programmable logic controller (PLC) to manage the automation process.
Level 2 Topic Coverage
