Course Overview
The module will focus on the applications of robotic automation technology and IoT system on smart manufacturing processes.
The fundamentals of robotics and mechanism design will be introduced to enable you to implement robotic automation solutions on factory floor. You will learn to setup a robotic workcell, carry out offline robot programming and integrate sensors to enhance the capability of the workcell. Internet of things (IoT) will be introduced to enable data acquisition and monitoring of the manufacturing processes.
