2 hours Lecture, 2 hours Lab, 3 credits
Lower-Division College Credit
Prerequisite(s): ETS 1542C and completion of the Engineering Technology core requirements; or permission of the Program Director
AA Elective: No
This course explores industrial use of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) multi-function Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and their applications are studied. The supply chain, logistics, and the flow of materials are explored, as well as the use of high-tech manufacturing and processing for robotic lines, conveyors, switches, and PLCs in various settings. The course includes a survey of the video feed, and infrared (IR) control in product movement and identification. Computer simulations and labs provide instruction in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and robotic placement and use in industrial settings.
