TECN 133MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

Catalog

The Mechanical Systems course focuses on the study of industrial mechanics and working in a manufacturing environment. The course emphasizes the installation, calibration and alignment of belt drives, chain drives and gear drives. Technical calculations critical to the design, installation, and maintenance of mechanical systems are a key focus. Maintenance techniques, strategies, and applications are also emphasized. The course includes the practical application of basic precision measurement tools such as calipers, micrometers, and dial indicators, alongside techniques in lubrication, basic vibration analysis, and essential industrial safety practices. An introduction to key manufacturing operational principles, covering areas such as process efficiency, quality control systems, statistical methods, measurement techniques, and engineering design interpretation is also included. Laboratory required. (A special fee will be assessed.)(TAG, CTAG)
