ELECTRO-MECHANICAL
TECHNOLOGY
Electro-Mechanical Technology (or mechatronics) is one
of the most in-demand and highly sought-after careers in
the manufacturing industry. The combination of electrical
engineering, electronic engineering, mechanical engineering
and skills based in computer-aided drafting, and machine
technology create a unique blend of knowledge desirable to
industry. These technicians are trained in a variety of skill areas,
allowing companies to utilize their knowledge for a vast array
of technical and mechanical issues. When necessary, industry
will call on more advanced specialists, however, for the everyday
issues that arise which could cost the company revenue when they
occur. Having a multi-skilled technician on staff that can address
issues immediately allows companies to continue production
at a minimal loss. Electromechanical technicians have become
essential positions in the manufacturing industry.
PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:
A graduate of this program will be able to do the following:
* Disassemble machinery or equipment to remove parts and
make repairs.
* Repair or replace broken or malfunctioning components of
machinery or equipment.
* Repair or maintain the operating condition of industrial
production or processing machinery or equipment.
* Examine parts for defects, such as breakage or excessive wear.
* Reassemble equipment after completion of inspections,
testing, or repairs.
* Observe and test the operation of machinery or equipment to
verify the adequacy of repairs.
* Clean, lubricate, or adjust parts, equipment, or machinery.
* Analyze test results, machine error messages, or information
obtained from operators to diagnose equipment problems.
* Record repairs and maintenance performed.
