Vocational Scenario or
Context
You are working as a final year apprentice in a small mechatronics engineering company.
You have been using some engineering processes to manufacture small components as
part of your team; your manager is pleased with your work and has decided that you
should be given some more responsibility. He wants you to look at whether the company is
using the most appropriate engineering processes when manufacturing small components.
Your manager has asked you to examine a boat propeller to report back on the
engineering processes that can be used to make it, including health and safety
factors, and how human factors could affect the performance of these processes. The
report will impact upon company investment decisions in the future.
Task 1
2 | P a g e
You are going to evaluate the effectiveness of engineering processes and how human
factors affect them.
To do this:
Your tutor will provide you with boat propeller using a range of engineering processes. You
need to:
• Research the processes used: drop forging; Slotting, buffing and grinding, including
relevant health and safety factors and legislation/regulations; and
• Research how these engineering processes can be affected by human factors (individual
and team).
You then need to:
Produce a report that evaluates the effectiveness of the engineering processes Slotting,
buffing and grinding used to manufacture the product and how human factors affect the
performance of the engineering processes. Your report should include:
