School of Technology

The modern workshop is full of computer-controlled machines and equipment. Knowing the operation of these automated machines is essential to be able to work in manufacturing design and development tasks.

You know the principals of NC technology, you can prepare NC part program manual way, you can operate NC machine tool. You know the principals of robotics and can prepare simple robot program. You know basics of computer aided NC part programming and you can prepare NC part program computer aided for simple work piece.

Engineering practice:
You are able to apply technical standards and established guidelines for design practices in your field in the manufacture of typical parts of mechanical engineering.

Investigation and information retrieval:
You can work in a workshop environment by designing and manufacturing simple machine parts yourself using NC technology.

NC-technology, operating and programming NC machine tool, basics of robotics and programming, working with workshop automation.

You have the technical basic abilities with which you can e.g. understand technical documentation and technical publications and you can apply them in your own work. In addition, the you have basic abilities of production technology. You have basic knowledge of NC machine tools and manual programming NC machine tools.

The overall assessment consists of 50% of the exam and 50% of the training and laboratory work.
To get a numerical grade, you need to take a supervised exam.
The exams are arranged three times in accordance with the degree rules.

Adequate (1): You are able to identify mainly the basics of production automation
concepts and technology, but you have significant flaws in their identification and selection tasks.

Satisfactory (2): You are familiar with the basics and concepts of production automation, but you have shortcomings in their identification and choice

Good (3): You master the key issues of the course:
-you know the basic equipment of machine workshop production automation
- you are familiar with the concepts of production automation and their principles
- you are able to program machine workshop production automation equipment.
- you will have a functioning NC program for lathes and machining centers from the technical drawing onwards.

Very good (4): You know the key issues and know how to apply them critically in solving your application tasks.

Excellent (5): You know the key issues and are able to apply them critically and innovatively in solving your application tasks. You can draw simple synthesis and conclusions.
