Mechanical Engineering Workshop

The objective is to impart safe working practice in the use of hand and machine tools (such as pillar drills, table saws, grinders and lathes) in a typical engineering workshop environment. The student will learn the correct use of welding and brazing equipment for the joining of metals (mild steel, stainless steel, brass and aluminium) and also in the fabrication of components. The dismantling and reassembly of automotive power plant for road and marine applications will be undertaken.
