# Aerospace Engineering Drafter
|
|
|
|
Aerospace engineering drafters convert the aerospace engineers' designs into technical drawings usually using computer-aided design programs. Their drawings detail dimensions, fastening and assembling methods and other specifications used in the manufacture of aircrafts and spacecrafts.
|
|
|
|
## Core workflow
|
|
|
|
1. Inspect, diagnose, maintain, and operate test setups and equipment to detect malfunctions.
|
|
2. Record and interpret test data on parts, assemblies, and mechanisms.
|
|
3. Confer with engineering personnel regarding details and implications of test procedures and results.
|
|
4. Adjust, repair, or replace faulty components of test setups and equipment.
|
|
5. Identify required data, data acquisition plans, and test parameters, setting up equipment to conform to these specifications.
|
|
6. Operate and calibrate computer systems and devices to comply with test requirements and to perform data acquisition and analysis.
|
|
7. Test aircraft systems under simulated operational conditions, performing systems readiness tests and pre- and post-operational checkouts, to establish design or fabrication parameters.
|
|
8. Fabricate and install parts and systems to be tested in test equipment, using hand tools, power tools, and test instruments.
