Certificate III in Engineering Mechanical Trade Career Outcomes
This mechanical skills training qualification leads to employment opportunities in a wide range of manufacturing and engineering-related industries and Engineering Tradesperson - Mechanical posts in other sectors.
Fitter Machinist
A fitter machinist is a skilled professional who makes machine parts and, in some situations, assembles the machine itself. Because metal fabrication is such an essential part of the fitter machinist work, applicants must have basic to intermediate math and scientific skills and fundamental communication skills. Additionally, the technician must interpret blueprints and other technical drawings accurately.
Fitter and Turner
The day-to-day tasks will include studying technical drawings to determine the most suitable materials for machines and fitting the fabricated parts to assemble the equipment. The job also calls for the capacity to fabricate metal parts using precision-measuring instruments. They can also be called to diagnose faults and operational maintenance and repairs of machines.
Mechanical Fitter
Mechanical fitters assemble production machines and other equipment by fitting and assembling metal components. They maintain and repair automated plant machinery and equipment to operational standards using various tools and engineering procedures. They evaluate and diagnose mechanical components or equipment which are damaged or worn out. Mechanical fitters also use precision measuring equipment to ensure that parts are accurate and fit correctly.
