Preview Questions Automation Engineer | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: What is the best approach to troubleshoot intermittent faults in a sensor-integrated automation system?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Implementing data logging to capture sensor readings and environmental factors during operation

Ignoring the faults as they occur intermittently

Resetting the system without reviewing error logs

Disabling the sensor temporarily and observing the system's behavior

Question 2: In troubleshooting a control system, what does an oscilloscope typically measure?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Temperature fluctuations within the system

Signal delays between controllers and actuators

Voltage output at specific points in the system

Current consumption across the system

Question 3: What method should be used to optimize robotic arms for highly accurate and repeatable movements in an assembly process?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Program robots with precise motion paths, fine-tune force feedback, and calibrate regularly

Ignore precision and focus solely on speed in high-volume environments

Use manual adjustments instead of programming to achieve better results

Increase the robot's speed to improve throughput at the expense of precision

Question 4: How can an automation system design improve the accuracy and precision of manufacturing processes?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By using high-precision sensors, closed-loop control systems, and regular system calibration

By ignoring system calibration and relying on default settings

By simplifying control algorithms and reducing sensor usage

By focusing on production speed rather than accuracy

Question 5: How do force sensors improve robotic manipulation during integration?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By detecting obstacles in the robot's path

By allowing the robot to adjust its force output based on feedback

By increasing the robot's speed during operation

By enabling the robot to handle more complex tasks

Question 6: How should an Automation Engineer ensure that process improvements align with safety and compliance standards in a manufacturing environment?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By ignoring safety standards as long as efficiency improves

By continuously reviewing safety standards, integrating safety protocols into the process improvements, and involving safety teams in the process

By implementing process improvements without any regard for safety or compliance

By assuming the current safety protocols are adequate without evaluating improvements
