What is the difference between a mechanical equipment engineer and a mechanical design engineer? Which is more promising? What will you do in the future?

There is no essential difference between mechanical equipment engineers and mechanical design engineers. They are all mechanical engineers. The premise is that everyone should have basic mechanical knowledge and necessary ability.

Mechanical equipment engineer, mainly working in grass-roots (if factories and mines), equipment management department (such as equipment department), large equipment warehouse. The task is to be responsible for the installation, debugging, maintenance, procurement planning and equipment management of mechanical equipment. It has a wide range of activities.

Mechanical design engineers mostly work in design departments, such as design institutes, design departments, design departments, scientific research institutes and other units. Mainly responsible for mechanical design or scientific research and development. Strong technology, but also tired, the work product is "drawings", and the drawing foundation is good. The effective surface is very narrow.

A, mechanical equipment engineer title

Mechanical engineers usually refer to professionals engaged in the mechanical industry. We often say that mechanical engineers refer to professional titles, that is, intermediate engineers. In addition, there is the mechanical engineer qualification certification of the Mechanical Engineering Society and the registered mechanical engineer of survey and design.

Second, the mechanical design engineer

1. 1 Definition of mechanical design

Mechanical design is a process of innovation, design (or transformation) of mechanical products by using the theory, methods and means of mechanical design according to the needs of users, with the aim of providing the market with a high-quality and low-cost technical system facing the ecological environment.

Mechanical design mainly includes: product planning, new product development, product design, trial production and testing of new products, market (user) information management, etc.

1.2 mechanical design engineer

Technical personnel engaged in research and design of mechanical products (equipment), technology development, popularization and application of new technologies and other related technical work in various fields of national economy.

1.3 Competency level of mechanical design engineer.

Mechanical design engineers should have modern scientific ideas and methods, and show good rationality (not dogmatic and mechanical) and strong judgment and originality in design work;

Be able to use modern design theories and methods independently to analyze and solve practical problems in product design. In the research and development of new products, put forward key suggestions or measures and put forward solutions to key tasks;

While making achievements in various disciplines and fields of mechanical design, it has the ability to acquire and apply knowledge similar to and related to design work (such as modern mechanical manufacturing technology and production mode, material engineering, industrial modeling and packaging, product quality management, advanced design organization and management, etc.). ).
