This micro-credential covers the basics of
mechanical components and electrical drives in a complex mechatronic system.
Students will learn the basic functions and physical properties of mechanical
components and electrical drives (AC and DC). They will also learn about the
flow of energy through mechanical systems and examine materials, lubrication
requirements, and surface properties to increase efficiency and to reduce wear
and tear. By utilizing technical documentation and analyzing the interworkings
of the complete system, students will learn and apply troubleshooting
strategies to identify, localize, and correct malfunctions. Preventive
maintenance of mechanical elements and electrical drives as well as safety
issues within the system will be discussed.
