Manufacturing Engineering Technology - Welding and Robotics is a three-year Ontario College Advanced Diploma delivered full-time at the Cambridge - Fountain Street campus, starting each September. The program covers welding automation and robotics systems, including GMAW (MIG) and spot-welding applications, CAD/CAM applications with CNC thermal cutting, and off-line robotic simulation programming, building on welding technology with broader knowledge of manufacturing methods and industrial automation. Students develop skills in designing, modifying, installing, testing, maintaining, repairing, and troubleshooting equipment and systems that combine electronics, programmable automation controllers, computers, hydraulics, and pneumatics. The program shares a common first two years with the Welding Engineering Technology - Inspection program. The Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) conditionally recognizes the program as meeting the academic requirements for Certified Engineering Technologist (CET) certification, and graduates cover the Level 1 learning outcomes of Ontario's Welder (456A) and Metal Fabricator - Fitter (437A) apprenticeship programs. An optional co-op stream of four consecutive four-month work terms is available.
