Learning outcomes of the course unit
  • Participants of the course learn the basics of industrial robotics on the one hand and the adjacent components in an automation environment on the other hand. Moreover, are the students able to check the application criteria of industrial robotics and know under which conditions this must and may be done in a reasonable way. Students understand how to integrate industrial robots into higher-level processes and plants and are able to make economic assessments and calculations in relation to robot systems.
