Robotics Programmer

Many Manufacturing Processes Require the Skills of a Robotics Programmer

The influences of technology are clearly evident in many aspects of daily life that at one time were considered merely to be the folly of science fiction authors and screen writers.  Perhaps with the notable exception of time travel, several figments of sci-fi imaginations have come to fruition – advancements in space travel, undersea exploration, and nuclear power generation are all examples of human inventiveness which, not so long ago, were deemed inconceivable or unfathomable.

This same type of ingenuity is also quite prevalent within the manufacturing sector; one of the many innovations in this field has been the introduction of robots/robotic systems that are capable of performing duties that humans cannot or choose not to complete for a variety of physical, functional, or safety reasons.  While the responsibility for designing such devices/systems resides with robotics engineers, it is the job of robotics technicians or programmers to actually bring them to life and put them to work, so to speak.

Within the job description of a robotics programmer, one might find many or most of the following duties:

As a result of effectively implementing the above and perhaps additional responsibilities, a robotics programmer can streamline/improve the manufacturing/production processes with respect to:

In terms of employment opportunities for a robotics programmer, some of the industries or sectors that now commonly utilize robotics technology include:

Educational requirements to enter the field of robotics programming typically consist of a two-year program to obtain an associate’s degree in electrical engineering technology or mechanical engineering technology.  Studies should place an emphasis on such subject matter as computer programming and integration, motion programming, and conveyor systems.
