AUTOMATED ROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY
MAINTAIN – REPAIR – INSTALL
Automated Robotics, commonly called automation technicians or industrial maintenance technicians, play a vital role in todays workforce. As more machines become automated it takes a well-rounded individual in key areas to maintain these machines.
As an automated robotic student, you will learn:
- Basic Electrical Theory/Wiring
- Mechanical Drives Systems (belts, pulleys, gears, bearings, chains, etc.)
- Hydraulic Systems
- Pneumatic Systems
- Motor Control Systems
- Manufacturing
- Machining, Welding
- Programmable Logic Controller
- Variable Frequency Drives
- Safety in Industry
- Tools
- Adapting to the Workforce
Having this diverse skillset enables you to adapt to the needs of the company by being able to install, operate, test, repair and maintain industrial equipment.
This equipment can be found anywhere from a manufacturing facility to oil and gas related fields.
While you’re learning the unique skillsets this class offers, you have the potential to earn industry recognized certificates in the following areas.
- Electric Motor Control Systems
- Electrical Systems Installations
- Electrical Systems 1
- Mechanical Power Systems 1
- Pneumatic Systems 1
- “NC3” Snap-On Meter 596F
Most of our certifications are through Smart Automation Certification Alliance “SACA”. SACA is nationally recognized by several cooperation’s including Rockwell Automation, Schlumberger, Ashley Furniture, Hershey, Kohler, Boeing, and Fanuc
Our Snap-On Meter certification showcases your ability to prove that you can use a digital multimeter safely and effectively. NC3 is the National Coalition of Certification Centers and is a value driven organization.
CAN I FINISH THE PROGRAM EARLY?
Yes, this program is designed to be self-directed, adults with the aptitude for and work ethic can complete the curriculum early and start on-the-job training (OJT).
Is this a good job for me?
Ask yourself these questions:
- Do you like a challenge?
- Do you like to troubleshoot?
- Are you interested in gaining a diverse skillset?
- Do you like to work with your hands?
- Are you interested in a potentially high-paying career?
If you said yes to at least two of the questions, then this is the class for you.
Leaving this program with a diverse skillset, puts you a step ahead in job placement. You can complete this program and start your career in industry!

Automated Robotics had an opportunity to visit Plains All American Pipeline in Cushing. They learned how automation plays a vital role in transferring oil all across the country. They were able to see first hand the process of oil transfer from the control room to pumps and valves with a touch of a button.
#centraltechedu #centraltechrobotics
Also known as industrial maintenance, Automated Robotics students learn to install, operate, test, maintain, and repair industrial machinery. As they develop troubleshooting skills for robotics, programmable controllers, and automated systems, they engage in hands-on lab experience to practice skills learned in the classroom.
