BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma
Unit 2: Delivery of Engineering Processes safety as
a Team
Learning Aim C: Carry out engineering process
safely to manufacture a product as a team

,Scenario
I am working as a final year apprentice in a medium-sized engineering company. My
manager is pleased with my work and has decided that I should be given some more
responsibility. So, he puts me as part of a small team that will manufacture a batch of brass
plumbobs using a different approach to that normally employed by the company.
My manager wants me to work with colleagues to organise the team and set targets. He is
also expecting me and my colleagues to interpret technical documentation and to safely and
effectively manufacture a batch of plumbobs by setting up engineering processes correctly
and reviewing progress against team targets. All members of the team are expected to take
on the role of team leader at certain points, and my manager will be observing how well I
can manage my own contributions.
Task/Introduction
Working in teams of 3- 4 trainees, produce 3-4 batches of 3 Plumbobs to the dimensions
given in the supplied drawings. It is desired that each batch should be manufactured in the
minimum production time.
The Plumbob bodies are to be made in brass although the Bobscrew material may be
modified if required.
The workshop processes involved will require use of a CNC Lathe, Manual Lathe, and
handtools for cutting and thread cutting (Tap & Die).
,Design Details
The assembly drawing and part drawings for the plumbob are given below:
