Description
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to undertake a range of mechatronic-related analyses that can relate to the design of mechatronic devices or automated plant or be used for other purposes. This includes fitness for purpose evaluations, installation and commissioning, system changes or improvements or other mechatronic engineering-related tasks and includes application of mechanical, fluid, electrical and controller design and analytical techniques. It is suitable for people working at a technician level in a mechatronic engineering work environment and applies to people working individually or as part of a team.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
