A Level engineering help???
I have to use MS word to write a report on how an engineering orthographic drawing would be used by a shop floor machinist. It contains GD&T, surface finishes and Secondar operations.
This is what i have written so far
Engineering drawing for technician’s assessment.
Before making a component, a machinist must use the necessary equipment and must study the drawings that are handed down by an engineering technician. First of all the machinist must select the machines and equipment that he needs to use and create the component in the drawing. On this drawing there are a number of signs and values that a machinist must examine before they can accurately create the component needed. The box at the bottom right of the diagram has a sufficient number of information for the machinist to read. One of the most important values is for dimension; this is seen as a value along the sides of the component. Before a machinist can start work on a component he needs to have the sufficient length and diameter of the material he is using. Another important thing he needs to check is the surface roughness and finishing. This is important as it has to meet customer expectations. The roughness of the component must be at a certain value for a certain component. Some suppliers need components with a rough surface while other components need to have a smooth finish. This is why it is important for a machinist to look at the value on the drawing for surface roughness. The sign for surface roughness is portrayed as a triangle on a diagonal line. General tolerance is a major part of a machinist’s job, it tells the manufacturing staff and machines what degree of accuracy and precision is needed on each area of the part. All dimensions have a tolerance so the machinist has to select a tolerance for each dimension.
What can i add or change in this??
I really need help to make sure i am doing it properly.
I would really appreciate any help, thanks very much.
