# Calculation Engineer
|
|
|
|
Calculation engineers draw conclusions about real systems, such as on strength, stability and durability, by performing experiments on virtual models. They test production processes as well.
|
|
|
|
## Core workflow
|
|
|
|
1. Analyze statistical data and product specifications to determine standards and establish quality and reliability objectives of finished product.
|
|
2. Develop manufacturing methods, labor utilization standards, and cost analysis systems to promote efficient staff and facility utilization.
|
|
3. Recommend methods for improving utilization of personnel, material, and utilities.
|
|
4. Plan and establish sequence of operations to fabricate and assemble parts or products and to promote efficient utilization.
|
|
5. Apply statistical methods and perform mathematical calculations to determine manufacturing processes, staff requirements, and production standards.
|
|
6. Draft and design layout of equipment, materials, and workspace to illustrate maximum efficiency using drafting tools and computer.
|
|
7. Review production schedules, engineering specifications, orders, and related information to obtain knowledge of manufacturing methods, procedures, and activities.
|
|
8. Communicate with management and user personnel to develop production and design standards.
