Saca Exam |131 Complete Questions and Answers
Can you give three examples of advanced manufacturing tools and techniques? - -Tools-
Welding and machine with lasers, Nanotechnology, Additive manufacturing.
Techniques- Artificial intelligence, Digital twin, Machine learning.
-Can you name three impacts of computers on Advanced Manufacturing besides
automation? - -CAD (Computer aided design); CAM (Computer aided manufacture);
(Computer integrated manufacture); robotics, material handling devices.Led to an
increased accuracy and flexibility of manufacturing process.Computer technology has
enabled automation to become more effective in applications other than mass production.
-Can you name three benefits of factory automation? - -Advantages commonly attributed
to automation include higher production rates and increased productivity, more efficient
use of materials, better product quality, improved safety, shorter workweeks for labor, and
reduced factory lead times.
-Can you describe how a CNC machine works? - -is a metal fabrication method where
written code controls the machinery in the manufacturing process.
-Do you know the difference between an additive and a subtractive manufacturing
process? - -Additive manufacturing processes build objects by adding material layer by
layer, while subtractive manufacturing removes material to create parts.
-Can you name two types of robots? - -autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), automated
guided vehicles (AGVs)
-Do you know the function of a PLC? - -A PLC's functions are divided into three main
categories: inputs, outputs and the CPU. PLCs capture data from the plant floor by
monitoring inputs that machines and devices are connected to. The input data is then
processed by the CPU, which applies logic to the data, based on the input state. The CPU
then executes the user-created program logic and outputs data or commands to the
machines and devices it is connected to.
There are two main types of inputs: data inputs from devices and machines, and data
inputs that are human-facilitated. The input data from sensors and machines are sent to the
PLC. Inputs can include on/off states for things like mechanical switches, buttons, and
encoders. High/low states for things like temperatures, pressure sensors, and liquid-level
detectors, or opened/closed states for things like pumps and values.
-Besides alarm screens and error messages, do you know what else an HMI is used for? - -
monitor and display important production data such as run rates, Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs), inputs and outputs.
, -Can you name some Software and New Emerging Technologies in Advanced
Manufacturing? - -Artificial intelligence (AI), the internet of things (IoT), 3D printing and
virtual reality (VR)
-Do you know the four industrial revolutions and the cause and benefits of each? - -
-Can you name some components and applications of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)? -
-smart sensors, machines, tools, software platforms, cloud servers and applications. Smart
sensors are deployed at every stages of manufacturing floor for specific applications.
-Do you know the importance of safety policies? - -Prevent workplace injuries and
illnesses.
-Do you know the results of unsafe behavior? - -These behaviors increase the risk of
premature death, disability, and increased incidence of chronic diseases
-Can you name four federal and state safety agencies? - -VP, Secretary of Agriculture,
Commerce, Defense, Education, Energy, HHS, Homeland Security, HUD, Labor, State,
Transportation, Treasury, Veterans Affairs & Attorney General.
-Can you state the safety responsibilities within a company? - -Contribute to a safe
workplace by following safe work procedures, reporting unsafe conditions or incidents,
and being prepared to respond to a workplace injury or emergency.
-What are the clothing safety guidelines for machine operators? - -Do not wear loose
clothing, loose neckwear or exposed jewelry while operating machinery. Do not work
alone. The buddy system is mandatory! • Pull back and secure long hair. Do not wear thin
fabric shoes, sandals, open-toed shoes, and high-heeled shoes.
-What happens if someone doesn't follow machine operation safety guidelines? - -May
cause injuries or death and also get you fired.
-Can you name three types of machine guards and state what to do if one is missing? - -
Fixed.
Interlocked.
Adjustable.
Machines requiring a guard shall not be used if the guard is missing or defective. The
missing or defective guard should be reported to the supervisor immediately and replaced
before the machine is operated.
-Do you know how machine interlocks and emergency stop controls effect an operation? -
-
-Do you know how to perform an electrical lockout/tagout? - -STEP 1: Notify affected
employees. ...
STEP 2: Identify procedure and hazards. ...
