Design a robotic system
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: June 2024
This unit applies to the design of a robotic system across all forms of manufacturing and engineering. Design activities may also include reverse engineering, design rectification, integration of off the shelf components, or modifications of an existing design. It is suitable for robotic system designers or maintenance technologists, and those pursuing qualifications and careers in engineering design involving robotics and automation.
Prior experience in the application of computing technology, mathematics, scientific principles and techniques, including kinematics and kinetics, electrical and fluid power principles and techniques, programming of computers and controllers, robotic systems evaluation and mechanical construction techniques is required.
This unit of competency covers the design of an engineering application employing a robot and integrating it with other equipment and systems. It includes the use and integration of actuators, sensors, end effectors, including tactile effectors, dynamic analysis of strength and stability, programming and protocols for communications and networking, as appropriate.
