Mechanical design, manufacturing and automation major, seniors who have graduated please come in

Let me say a few words here: I am a CNC graduate from a technical school, that is, a mechanic, so I will give you a cheeky answer.

For majors, machinery is also a relatively popular major now, whether it is a technical secondary school or a university. A friend of mine studied mechanical electrician. Come to think of it, I am about to graduate now, so this is a digression.

Most of our current classmates are not engaged in mechanical work. In addition to different academic qualifications, there are many reasons. However, I don’t think our abilities are worse than others. I think everyone can develop their abilities, but most people don’t have a platform. I am not saying here that those who study the mechanical industry or do mechanical work have no future. A little mention here.

I also know a few college students in CNC on the Internet. Some of them seem to be doing well, while a few have changed careers early. It's been many years. (Because this is QQ that I added when I was in technical school, I haven’t chatted with them for a long time, and I don’t know how they are doing now).

It can be seen that you are a thoughtful person. Maybe it’s at night, wondering about my future. This is a question asked at 12 o'clock in the evening. Maybe it's your lifestyle. Here are some suggestions for you.

The courses in general mechanical schools must include mechanical drawing, CAD, PREO/E, and UG. This is drawing software. The first three courses must be learned. In addition, there are: metal materials and heat treatment, Electrical basics, CNC programming, and machining technology should be more practical than those in our technical schools, such as general lathes, CNC lathes, CNC milling machines, machining centers, etc.

Generally speaking, if you work in this major, I think there are three ways to go. (The positions in each factory are different, you will understand later)

1. To engage in design work, you must learn mechanical drawing, CAD, PRO/E, and UG. Every factory has different drawing software. I have never heard of some of them, but most of them are these. This is purely by design.

2. Those who are engaged in CNC programming (some are just pure CNC programming masters), that is, mechanical engineers, must learn mechanical drawing, and they must also know the basics of drawing, CNC programming, general turning, general milling, and machining. Centering, drilling, machining arts, heat treatment, sometimes you also need to know a little maintenance, and you need to know management to do management. I have several engineers in one factory. Job promotion chart: CNC operator - assistant engineer - mechanical engineer - if you have academic qualifications, you may be directly engineer. (There is a person with a bachelor's degree in our factory who became a director directly because it is a new factory, but the salary is relatively low.)

3. To engage in quality inspection work, you need to learn mechanical drawing and the use of various measuring tools. There are other bits of common sense. (Our factory has a university technician who does quality inspection. At that time, the factory was not big, and personal knowledge had no future. (It depends on which factory)

Final advice, if you meet a good factory. Be sure to Seize the opportunity. I have never taken it before.

I hope the above suggestions can help you.
