An industrial robot will do exactly what it was taught, at full speed, including the wrong thing. Learning to work around one safely and to teach it properly is the entry point to every robotics job on a modern floor, and it is well within reach for a maintenance tech, a production technician, or an IT professional moving toward automation.
The course runs in two sections. On the robot, you will follow robot safety rules; identify robot types, components, and end-effectors; perform normal startup and shutdown, as well as emergency shutdown and recovery; identify the work envelope; and carry out a robot safety inspection. Using the teach pendant, you will read menus and status indicators, jog in joint mode and in Cartesian coordinates, adjust jog speed, set and test joint travel limits, identify robot position in each of the five frames, and define a frame using the three-point method. You will load programs over Ethernet or from a memory card, test digital inputs and outputs, run programs in single-step and continuous mode, teach and adjust points in the correct frame, recover from faults, and interpret alarm history — all working in the HandlingTool software package.
The second section moves to RoboGuide, where you will build a HandlingPro virtual work cell containing a FANUC robot with end-of-arm tooling, one or more fixtures, and a teach pendant program that moves parts from one fixture to another. Instruction combines lectures, chapter reviews, and demonstrations with lab exercises, and a pre-test and post-test measure mastery of the objectives.
This course prepares you to test for the Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA) C-215 Robot System Operations 1 certification and FANUC Certified Robot with RoboGuide certification.
