ETS 1540 - Industrial Applications 3 hours Lecture, 3 credits Lower-Division College Credit Prerequisites: Completion of Engineering Technology Program core requirements or permission of the Program Director AA Elective: No This course explores industrial use of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) in presentations, labs, and research. Multi-function 14 PLCs and their applications are studied in class and at real-world industrial sites. Supply Chain/Logistics and materials flow are explored, as well as the use of high-tech manufacturing and processing for robotic lines, conveyors, switches, and PLCs in various settings. This includes a survey of the use of ladder logic, video feed, and infrared (IR) control in product movement and identification. Industry representatives provide hands-on experiences within the local workforce (where allowable), and computer simulations and labs provide instruction in PLC and robotic placement and use in industrial settings.
