This course provides a fundamental understanding of industrial and manufacturing robot programming concepts and techniques, including best practices for safely working around robots. Robots in virtually all industrial environments, from manufacturing and metal fabrication to transportation and electronics, require the same basic inputs – where they’re starting, where they’re going, and specifically how to get there safely and accurately. This course provides insights into how robots are taught, how points are saved, how calibration works, and how programs are structured.​
