FMT 1520 Industrial Mechanics
This course introduces students to the mechanical body of knowledge needed to perform maintenance on facilities equipment. Emphasis is placed on precision measurement instruments, basic concepts of industrial chain and belt drive systems, bearings and lubrication systems, shaft alignment procedures, maintenance and trouble shooting of valves, gears, and pumps. Students will be required to calculate sprocket and pulley sizes to acquire desired machine shaft speeds, use both reverse dial/rim and rim/face shaft alignment procedures, perform vibration analysis, and maintain and trouble shoot valves, gears, and pumps. (3 lect., 2 lab.)
