Mechanical Engineers in Aerospace Industry: Assembly of Non-Electrical Devices

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Mechanical engineers play a crucial role in the assembly of non-electrical devices in the aerospace industry, particularly in the construction of space rocket engines. However, the assembly process is primarily conducted by mechanics rather than engineers. Additionally, modern aerospace components, including engines, are increasingly classified as "electro-mechanical," indicating a blend of mechanical and electrical engineering principles.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of aerospace engineering principles
  • Familiarity with mechanical engineering roles and responsibilities
  • Knowledge of electro-mechanical systems
  • Insight into assembly processes in manufacturing
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the role of mechanics in aerospace assembly
  • Explore the integration of mechanical and electrical systems in aerospace engineering
  • Study the assembly techniques used for space rocket engines
  • Investigate the educational pathways for mechanical engineers in the aerospace sector
USEFUL FOR

Aerospace engineers, mechanical engineers, manufacturing professionals, and students interested in the assembly processes of aerospace components.

I was wondering what kind of engineers do the actual assembly of the space rocket engines and other non-electrical devices in the aerospace industry, mechanical engineers right?

I doubt the engineers do any assembling, I would guess it's the Mechanics.

Also, the engine is not a non-electrical device at all, it is, like most things are becoming "electro-mechanical".
