MECH 2750 - Robotic Applications Capstone

4 sem hrs credit

(3 hours lecture-2 hours lab)

This course will allow students to work as a team to create a robotic assembly work cell. Students will have to create a mechatronic system utilizing a robot to assemble a product. Included will be design of an end effector, a mechatronic assembly, and integration into the system. Student will adhere to national safety standards. Prerequisite: Prerequisite/Corequisite: MECH 2710 , MECH 2720 , MECH 2730 , and MECH 2740  

In rare and unusual circumstances, a course prerequisite can be overridden with the permission of the Department Lead for the discipline.

Transfer (UT) or Non-Transfer Course (UN): UN

Upon completion of this course, students will demonstrate the ability to…

• work as a team to develop a mechatronic system to assemble a product using a robot integrated into the system.
• understand what factors make up decision making for a continuous-improvement activity including project cost and payback.
• demonstrate and design safety features for proper robotic usage
• use an industry process FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) to analyze overall product quality and process capability of a system.
• read, analyze and utilize the technical documents such as data sheet, timing diagrams, operator manuals, schematics for continual improvement activities.
• ability to use Deming’s process of kaizen and basic time study methods on a Mechatronic system.
• ability use previous class knowledge in a Mechatronics system team project.
• document the process and design.
• present and communicate the application.
