ENGI-3001Mechatronic Components and Functions
In this foundational course, students will be introduced to the mechanical, fluid power, and motion control principles essential for mechatronic systems. Students will select industrial components, model parts and assemblies in CAD, construct pneumatic and hydraulic circuits, and configure AC and servo drives. Students will gain experience diagnosing faults, integrating multidisciplinary subsystems into functional work cells, and producing clear technical documentation to support engineering decisions. Through hands-on lab activities, students will develop safe, ethical, and inclusive professional practices while strengthening teamwork and communication skills needed in the automation industry.
