What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Associate's Degree)

  • Faulty circuit boards, sensors, and encoders — diagnose and replace with reduced oversight during routine corrective maintenance on an automated production line.
  • Programmable logic controllers and robot controllers — install and configure following established procedures in a mid-volume manufacturing environment.
  • Robotic system faults — troubleshoot using knowledge of electronics, mechanics, and sensor feedback systems to restore uptime on familiar equipment.
  • End-of-arm tools and conveyor components — adjust, repair, and test independently to meet production specifications in an assembly or warehousing facility.
  • Computer-controlled robot movement programs — modify parameters within approved bounds to accommodate product changeovers on the shop floor.
  • Preventive and corrective maintenance schedules — execute and adapt for multiple robotic cells, documenting outcomes in a digital maintenance database.
  • Hydraulic and pneumatic subsystems — inspect and service using engineering schematics to resolve recurring performance issues in an industrial robot application.
  • Maintenance and repair reports — draft clearly and submit on time, providing accurate technical detail for engineering review in a regulated production setting.
  • Industrial control software and development environment tools — use routinely to upload, test, and verify robot programs after component replacement.
  • Alignment fixtures and microscopes — apply to fit precision components within tolerance during robotic sub-assembly repairs in a technical workshop.
