Maintenance

This unit enables learners to understand the procedures involved with the safe mechanical and electrical maintenance on industrial automation systems; maintenance support activities for industrial automation systems and the procedures involved with diagnosing faults-on industrial automation and robots.


Fault Finding and Diagnosis for Automation and Robotics:

This element enables learners to carry out fault-finding techniques and understand the procedures involved with diagnosing faults-on industrial automation and robots.

ROBENG.U2.E4.PC1
The student can explain how to devise a generic, logical process for identifying faults.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC2
The student can explain fault diagnosis methods.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC3
The student can describe how to select suitable data-capture methods to aid in fault diagnosis and rectification, where the automation system itself does not provide such a function.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC4
The student can describe how progressive failure of equipment may lead to increased energy usage.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC5
The student can identify specific fault-finding techniques applicable to particular manufacturers / models of equipment.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC6
The student can interpret machine error logs to aid fault-diagnosis.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC7
The student can identify correctly a series of fault conditions using a particular make/ model of robot.
ROBENG.U2.E4.PC8
The student can put the robot into a safe condition for maintenance, undertaking the corrective action(s) and restorative techniques.
