Mechanical engineering technicians carry out technical support functions in mechanical engineering research, design, manufacture, operations and maintenance.
Mechanical engineering technicians may work under the direction of mechanical engineers, technologists and associates in all stages of planning, design, maintenance and production.
Mechanical engineering technicians may perform the following tasks:
- develop drawings in the design process for new machinery or equipment, often with the aid of Computer-Aided Design or drafting (CAD)
- design precision equipment, machine tools and production machinery
- assemble and install new or altered mechanical equipment, parts, machine tools and controls, and help to construct, maintain and repair engineering machinery
- perform workshop and field tests using standard instruments and methods, and assist in developing quality control tests for products and parts
- study material handling methods and suggest changes to reduce handling costs.
Mechanical Engineering Associate
Mechanical engineering associates assist mechanical engineers and engineering technologists in the design, manufacture, construction, operation and maintenance of machines, manufacturing equipment, mechanical installations and mechanical facilities.
Mechanical engineering associates usually have a range of duties that lie between the technician and technologist levels.
Mechanical engineering associates may perform the following tasks:
- collect and analyse data, carry out complex calculations and prepare diagrams
- organise and supervise the manufacture, operation and maintenance of plant and equipment such as machinery, engines, airconditioning and other mechanical equipment
- perform or direct field or laboratory testing and analysis of results
- estimate material costs and quantities and machinery requirements
- produce designs, detailed drawings and documentation, manually or on computer, under the direction of mechanical engineers and technologists
- make sure that designs and finished work comply with the specifications, regulations and contract
- select tools and equipment
- organise and supervise inspection and maintenance of machinery and plant.
