Attention to detail
Good understanding of drawings and standards
Understand measuring equipment and how they are used
Understand the fundamentals of tolerances, geometrical tolerances, machining symbols, and welding symbols on drawings and know how to model and do assemblies in Inventor
Duties
Existing components must be reverse engineered to almost perfect accuracy for modelling and interference checking purposes.
Existing components must be modelled from measurements and in the case of missing components, new components must be created to fit the rest of the existing components.
After components are modelled, assemblies are created to fit existing &/or new components together and check if all components fit as should.
Components that require modification and new components must be detailed out in detail for manufacturing.
The draftsman has a responsibility to check their own drawings and make sure the drawing is according to Company Standard and has all relevant sizes and notes.
