Precision instrument assembler - Which skills are essential?

The equipment and instruments used for the monitoring and controlling of processes, such as valves, regulators, circuit breakers, and relays.

Precision or fine mechanics is a subdiscipline in engineering that focuses on the design and development of smaller precision machines.

Read and interpret drawings listing all the parts and subassemblies of a certain product. The drawing identifies the different components and materials and provides instructions on how to assemble a product.

Monitor quality standards in manufacturing and finishing process.

Measure the size of a processed part when checking and marking it to check if it is up to standard by use of two and three dimensional precision measuring equipment such as a caliper, a micrometer, and a measuring gauge.

Wear relevant and necessary protective gear, such as protective goggles or other eye protection, hard hats, safety gloves.

Examine the precision instruments and assess whether the instrument meets the quality standards and production specifications. Correct and adjust the reliability by measuring output and comparing results with the data of a reference device or a set of standardised results.

Pack different kinds of goods such as finished manufactured products or goods in use. Pack goods by hand in boxes, bags and other types of containers.

Read and comprehend standard blueprints, machine, and process drawings.

Elements that indicate or influence instrument performance. A first indication of the performance of the instrument is the accuracy or precision of the instrument, such as its response time, resolution, and range. A second indication of performance is the technical performance of the instrument, such as its power level, the electromagnetic interference, and transient voltages. A third indication of performance are environmental factors that can influence instrument performance, such as humidity, operating temperatures, or dust.

The national and international requirements, specifications and guidelines to ensure that products, services and processes are of good quality and fit for purpose.

Align tolerances while inserting and placing different parts to avoid tolerance discrepancy and misfits in assembly.

Maintain required company records and forms in order to report any defective materials or questionable conditions of manufacturing machinery and equipment.

Check the instrumentation equipment for accuracy and performance using pneumatic, electronic, and electrical test and measuring equipment and hand tools.

Build systems and instruments which measure, control, and monitor processes. Fit the instrument parts such as power supplies, control units, lenses, springs, circuit boards, sensors, transmitters, and controllers.

Instruments used for precision measuring or manufacture, such as micrometers, calipers, gauges, scales, and microscopes.

The science and engineering discipline that attempts to control process variables of production and manufacturing. It also focuses on the design of systems with desired behaviours. These systems use sensors to measure the output performance of the device that is being controlled.

Must be able to read and understand blueprints, drawings and plans and maintain simple written records.

Adhere to standards of hygiene and safety established by respective authorities.

Precision instrument assembler - Which skills are useful but not essential?

The national and international quality and safety standards and regulations with regards to the use and manufacture of electronic equipment and its components, such as semiconductors and printed circuit boards.

Use various techniques to ensure the product quality is respecting the quality standards and specifications. Oversee defects, packaging and sendbacks of products to different production departments.

Identify, report and repair equipment damage and malfunctions; communicate with field representatives and manufacturers to obtain repair and replacement components.

Engineering discipline related to the fields of electrical engineering, electronics engineering, software engineering, optical engineering, and mechanical engineering that deals with the development of apparatus with very low tolerances.

The national and international regulations with regards to the use and manufacture of electrical equipment on the workfloor. These regulations provide rules and guidelines on topics such as general risk management, electrical equipment manufacture, electrical equipment testing, electrical equipment installation, warning labels, and certificates.

The engineering processes that combine electrical and mechanical engineering in the application of electromechanics in devices that need electricity to create mechanical movement or devices that create electricity by mechanical movement.

Operate measurement instruments to measure parts of manufactured objects. Take into consideration specifications of manufacturers to perform the measuring.

Remove defective materials from the production line.

Align and lay out components in order to put them together correctly according to blueprints and technical plans.

The branch of science concerned with the study of the chemical and physical properties of metallic elements, intermetallic elements, and alloys.

Operate power driven pumps. Use hand tools or power tools. Use vehicle repair tools or safety equipment.

Use spanners to adjust machinery and equipment.

Utilize tools that are powered by hand, such as screwdrivers, hammers, pliers, drills and knives to manipulate materials and help create and assemble various products.

Remove defective parts and replace them with functioning components.

Ensure operative processes are finished at a previously agreed-upon time.

Assemble and fit together the different components of the measuring equipment, such as circuit boards, control units, sensors, transmitters, and cameras, to create precision instruments that are able to measure, transmit, indicate, record, and control.

The functioning of electronic circuit boards, processors, chips, and computer hardware and software, including programming and applications. Apply this knowledge to ensure electronic equipment runs smoothly.

Check and repair electronic equipment. Detect malfunction, locate faults and take measures to prevent damage.

Fasten components together according to blueprints and technical plans in order to create subassemblies or finished products.

Maintain records of the progress of the work including time, defects, malfunctions, etc.

Regulate and monitor the manufacturing equipment settings and process parameters, such as its temperature and power level. Review the manufacturing process and equipment and suggest improvements.

Ensure that the assembled products are conform to the specifications given.

Use soldering equipment, such as a soldering gun, a soldering torch or a gas-powered iron, to melt and join together pieces of metal or steel.

Set of technologies that make a process, system, or apparatus operate automatically through the use of control systems.
