Unit of competency
Modification History
Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to MEM09213A Produce schematic drawings for hydraulic and pneumatic fluid power systems.
Application
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to produce detailed engineering drawings for hydraulic and pneumatic fluid power systems to Australian Standard (AS) 1100.101 Technical drawing - General principles. Critical dimensions and specifications are predetermined, and drawings or models are developed with or without the use of computer-aided design (CAD) systems.
This unit is suitable for individuals undertaking drafting in manufacturing and other industries that use fluid power equipment and applies to preparing drawings of whole or part of the fluid power system.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Pre-requisite Unit
