Mechanical engineering is one of the important job, you can see it anywhere. So what is mechanical engineering? What do mechanical engineers do?  In this post, I will explain to you about it.

I. what is mechanical engineering?

 As wikipedia: Mechanical engineering is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering branches.
For easily understand, mechanical engineering is the industry of creating machines and industrial equipment. If you are a student or a high school student interested in the mechanical sector, you undoubtedly want to have a clear image of what a mechanical engineer after graduation do. This is the article for you! This article can give an overview of what you want to know.

II. What do mechanical engineers do?

  Mechanical engineering, like many other businesses, is a fairly vast field. You graduate after two, three, or four years of college at a general level. When you start to work, though, you will eventually specialize in one sort of employment. Many factors can influence. You will be a veteran in this field for a long time. With the knowledge that I have gained, I will list several mechanical engineering engineer positions as follows:

  • Create machinery, equipment, and goods. This work necessitates understanding of materials, material strength, actuators, tolerance selection, calculations, simulations, and so on.
  • Design and deconstruct the technological process of manufacturing designed machine parts. The task that comes following machine design, focused on the creation of jigs, cutting tools, processing techniques, and so on. Use of the available machine system in a reasonable manner to process suitable details.
  • Machine repair and upkeep. You must be familiar with the machinery you handle, from the electrical system through the working mechanism, cooling, lubrication, and wear-resistant elements. Sometimes the elements that need to be corrected are drastically different from the original. 
  • Estimate the budget and scope of the machine construction project.
  • Prepare reports and complete product documentation.
  • Learn and create novel machine-building theories and methodologies..

Where does mechanical engineering apply? I think everything need mechanical except software. You can see it anywhere as: Acoustics, Aerospace, Automation, Automotive, Autonomous Systems, Biotechnology, Composites, Computer Aided Design , Control Systems, Cyber security, Design, Energy, Ergonomics, Human health, Manufacturing and additive manufacturing, Mechanics, Nanotechnology, Production planning, Robotics, Structural analysis.

Final thoughts on mechanical engineering job

 Each of the aforementioned categories of labor is split into smaller jobs. Perhaps you should learn more about it. Someone specializes in working with a system such as hydraulics, pneumatic, complicated cam systems, and CNC machines; there are also individuals who specialize in mounds, welding, boilers, water conduit, and toxic suction. Similarly to manufacturing details, it requires someone who specializes in knives, jigs, conditioners, heat treatment, plating, and so on.

III. The popular mechanical engineering.

Mechanical engineering is very broad.  From mechanical engineering, auto mechanics, shipbuilding mechanics, … I will introduce some popular mechanical industries,  that have a direct impact on our lives.

1. Welding mechanic

Welding mechanic or welder is one of the necessary occupations in the construction and manufacturing. Welder’s job is fixed some components as iron, steel, aluminum, stainless steel,… to one part.  Some parts you can see directly as iron ladders, iron doors, trolleys, etc. It was created by welding mechanic.

Welding mechanic is not easy work, sometimes it is very dangerous when you often have to climb, weld details, iron joints on high, on buildings, in constructions. During the welding, metal was fixed in high temperature, it will create light and smoke. It is not good for your health. You have to control and protect your eyes.

2. Car engine

In the world, the rich people is increasing, the price of a car is reduce. So it is not difficult to buy a new car. On the road, the number of cars on the road is increasing over the years. I can talk to you the auto mechanic profession will also grow in the future.

3. Mechanical engineer.

mechanical engineer

Mechanical Engineer will research, design, operate, maintain, repair, etc., the machines and equipment in their factories and workshops. The job requirements of a mechanical engineer follow as below:

+ Design and manufacture machines in your factory.
+ Extract materials from technical drawings.
+ Make a detailed list of  materials.
+ And other jobs depending on the requirements of each company.

IV. Some questions relate mechanical engineer.

+ Is mechanical engineering toxic? -> As you read, the mechanical has many jobs. Some jobs are toxic and some jobs are not toxic.

+ Is the mechanical dangerous or risky? Mechanical engineering has many dangers.

+ Does mechanical engineering have a high money? Some member will have many money but some member is poor. It is follow you.

+ What personality is suitable for mechanical engineering? Every one can do mechanical. But if you want to earn more money with it, you have to have creative thinking, observation, rational,… If you are person who dreams, flutters, is emotional, artist , is right-brained … then you do not choose this profession.
