| rolling-stock-engineering-drafter | Occupational skill for the role 'rolling stock engineering drafter' (also: rolling stock draughtsperson, rolling stock engineering draughtsperson, rolling stock engineering drafting specialist, rolling stock engineering drafting adviser, rolling stock engineering drafting expert, rolling stock engineering draftsperson). Use when the user asks for typical rolling stock engineering drafter work such as: Develop detailed design drawings and specifications for mechanical equipment, dies, tools, and controls, using computer-assisted drafting (CAD) equipment.; Coordinate with and consult other workers to design, lay out, or detail components and systems and to resolve design or other problems.; Review and analyze specifications, sketches, drawings, ideas, and related data to assess factors affecting component designs and the procedures and instructions to be followed. |
Rolling Stock Engineering Drafter
Rolling stock engineering drafters convert the rolling stock engineers’ designs into technical drawings usually using software. Their drawings detail dimensions, fastening and assembling methods and other specifications used in the manufacture of rail vehicles such as locomotives, multiple units, carriages and wagons.
Core workflow
- Develop detailed design drawings and specifications for mechanical equipment, dies, tools, and controls, using computer-assisted drafting (CAD) equipment.
- Coordinate with and consult other workers to design, lay out, or detail components and systems and to resolve design or other problems.
- Review and analyze specifications, sketches, drawings, ideas, and related data to assess factors affecting component designs and the procedures and instructions to be followed.
- Compute mathematical formulas to develop and design detailed specifications for components or machinery, using computer-assisted equipment.
- Position instructions and comments onto drawings.
- Modify and revise designs to correct operating deficiencies or to reduce production problems.
- Design scale or full-size blueprints of specialty items, such as furniture and automobile body or chassis components.
- Check dimensions of materials to be used and assign numbers to the materials.
