Due to the additional skill sets required for manufacturing electric vehicles, the team members participated in the courses to enhance their knowledge and understanding of mechatronics and pneumatics\u2014a branch of engineering that makes use of gas or pressurized air in the manufacturing process.<\/p>\n<p>Associate Professor Erkan Kaplanoglu was the instructor for all three sections of two weeklong courses, including \u201cIntroduction to Mechatronics,\u201d \u201cIntroduction to Pneumatics\u201d and \u201cIntroduction to Electropneumatics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough this supplemental education, they better understand the role those components play within the bigger system,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is important to have this level of understanding in order to effectively troubleshoot equipment issues, should they arise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The courses were a mix of lectures and hands-on instruction, enabling the VW participants to directly apply what they learned in real-world scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn a day-to-day basis, these employees complete tasks such as changing a switch or checking a sensor,\u201d Kaplanoglu said.<\/p>\n<p>VW equipment operator Spencer Charlesworth said the courses will help him in his work as the local factory transitions to making electric vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe class was extremely helpful in getting a better understanding of pneumatics as a whole.
