The acronym CIM stands for:
Complicated Item Manufacturing
Computer Integrated Manufacturing
Computer Informed Machining
Custom Item Manufacturing
Workers in a factory manage individual work stations where they perform one or two tasks. The products being produced travel through the factory from one workstation to the next. This scenario describes:
An assembly line
CNC
Automation
CIM
Using a computer to model parts or processes, or to create technical drawings.
CAM (computer aided machining)
CAD (computer aided design)
CNC (computer numeric control)
CIM (computer integrated manufacturing)
Using computers to design cutting instructions for machine tools
CAM (computer aided machining)
CAD (computer aided design)
CNC (computer numeric control)
CIM (computer integrated manufacturing)
An automated system that can retrieve items both vertically and horizontally.

The Manufacturing Enterprise Wheel...
is customer-centered
involves people and teamwork
relies on shared knowledge and key processes
utilizes resources and responsibilities
has infrastructure as the outer layer
How is Kaizen applied to the manufacturing process?
It allows for improving employees by weeding out the bad.
It allows for continuous improvement with employee input.
It allows for continuous improvement of factory machines.
It allows a company to shift product focus as-needed.
What is the idea behind JIT procedures?
Manufacturers purchase parts in-bulk to prevent shortage.
Manufacturers release products on the last day of a job.
Goods and labor are on-hand in case they're needed later on.
Manufacturers buy parts as-needed, which saves on storage.
What is lean manufacturing?
The systematic elimination of waste.
A management method to improve business processes.
The reduction of workers a company employs to save on labor.
Define value to pursue perfection.
Six Sigma ( 6σ )...
indicates measure of quality for near perfection
produces fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities
identifies and corrects cause of defects
utilizes the five "whys" to uncover root causes
is the practice of arranging manufacturing resources into a group

What is Automation?
the use of technology to ease human labor or extend the mental or physical capabilities of humans.
a system for the automatic relocation and retrieval of items or documents to or from storage.
load carriers that travel along the floor of a facility without an onboard operator or driver.
the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots.
What is Robotics?
the use of technology to ease human labor or extend the mental or physical capabilities of humans.

In this project, how many times will the [Drive] block be repeated?
It will be repeated forever.
It will repeat 100 times.
It will repeat 90 times.
It will repeat once.
How can the following example be simplified by using a [Repeat] block?
By placing the drive forward and turn blocks in a [Repeat] block that repeats four times.
By placing the drive forward block in a [Repeat] block that repeats four times.
By placing the turn block in a [Repeat] block that repeats four times.
By changing all of the parameters of the drive forward blocks to 400mm instead of 200 mm.
What does this block do?
runs code when the program is started.
turn the robot right.
moves the robot forward.
stops the robot from moving.
How can you troubleshoot a 'program not downloading' issue in Vex V5 Code?
Check USB cable connection, ensure V5 Brain is turned on, and verify correct port selection
Check the weather forecast
Restart the computer
Replace the V5 Brain with a different model
What behavior will the VR robot perform if the condition of the Left Bumper Sensor being pressed is TRUE?
The VR robot will continue to drive forward forever.
The VR robot will drive in reverse for 50mm and then turn left for 90 degrees.
The VR robot will stop moving.
The VR robot will drive forward for 50mm and then turn right for 90 degrees.
What part of the block do you
select to change the direction of the drive forward block?
1

4
What do the grey blocks do in the V5 Coding System?
They tell the robot what to do.
They are comment blocks which make the code easier to read and understand what those blocks do.
They detect errors in your code.
The are event blocks, which cause the next set of blocks to execute when a specific event happens.
Why would a [If then] block be used in a project?
To execute a set of commands only if a certain condition is true.
To repeat a set of commands a specific number of times.
To ask the user a question.
To execute commands in a random order.
Based on the picture, which part is being shown?
Bump Sensor
Potentiometer
Limit Switch
Line Tracker
What should you do in the VEX Code V5 software each time you add devices to your build?
Nothing, they are automatically detected
Code the device
Add the device, then code it
Add the device
