Robotics Technicians

• Maintain service records of robotic equipment or automated production systems.

• Fabricate housings, jigs, fittings, or fixtures, using metalworking machines.
• Install, program, or repair programmable controllers, robot controllers, end-of-arm tools, or conveyors.
• Modify computer-controlled robot movements.
• Align, fit, or assemble components, using hand tools, power tools, fixtures, templates, or microscopes.
• Attach wires between controllers.
• Evaluate the efficiency and reliability of industrial robotic systems, reprogramming or calibrating to achieve maximum quantity and quality.
• Develop robotic path motions to maximize efficiency, safety, and quality.
• Build or assemble robotic devices or systems.
• Program complex robotic systems, such as vision systems.
• Perform preventive or corrective maintenance on robotic systems or components.
• Train customers or other personnel to install, use, or maintain robots.
• Troubleshoot robotic systems, using knowledge of microprocessors, programmable controllers, electronics, circuit analysis, mechanics, sensor or feedback systems, hydraulics, or pneumatics.
• Install new robotic systems in stationary positions or on tracks.
• Document robotics test procedures and results.
• Test performance of robotic assemblies, using instruments such as oscilloscopes, electronic voltmeters, or bridges.
• Make repairs to robots or peripheral equipment, such as replacement of defective circuit boards, sensors, controllers, encoders, or servomotors.
• Train robots, using artificial intelligence software or interactive training techniques, to perform simple or complex tasks, such as designing and carrying out a series of iterative tests of chemical samples.
• Assist engineers in the design, configuration, or application of robotic systems.
• Inspect installation sites.
