Engineering BTEC Level 2 Unit with verified
Answers Graded A+
Mechanical engineering - CORRECT --A discipline of engineering that applies the
principles of Physics and materials for analysis, design, manufacturing and
maintenance of mechanical systems.
Biomedical engineering - CORRECT --The application of engineering principles and
design concepts to medicine and biology for health care purposes. This field seeks to
close the gap between engineering and medicine.
Chemical engineering - CORRECT --Branch of engineering that applies physical
sciences and chemistry and physics and life sciences (biology) together with maths to
convert raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms.
Aerospace engineering - CORRECT --Construction, testing, design and development of
aeronautical and astronautical engineering.
Automotive engineering - CORRECT --Design, manufacture and operations of
motorcycles, automobiles, buses and trucks and their respective engineering
subsystems.
Communications engineering - CORRECT --Brings together electrical engineering with
computer science to enhance telecommunications systems. Overlaps with broadcast
engineering.
Electrical engineering - CORRECT --A field of engineering that generally deals with the
study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism.
MIG Welding - CORRECT --Uses electricity to generate heat required to weld materials.
Suitable for large scale production. Varying thickness of materials can be joined.
Reduced cost due to the production of neat and clean metal deposits on the workpiece
means there is no need for extra cleaning.
Name some PPE - CORRECT --Some pretty cute options here
Advantages and Disadvantages of Drilling Machines - CORRECT --Advantage:
Accurate precision drilling
Drill a variety of diameters
Disadvantage: Must be operated by a skilled worker
Not portable (??????????????????)
Advantages and Disadvantages of a MIling Machine - CORRECT --Advantage: The tab
, What is mass producion? - CORRECT --Involves the product going through many
stages of a production line. It deals with the high- volume manufacture of products that
may or may not be identical, allot of specialist equipment is needed. The workers and
machines at each stage are responsible for making certain parts of the product.
Workers tend to specialise in a small range of tasks.
What is continuous producion? - CORRECT --In continuous production, the products
are produced over a period hours, days, weeks or even years. The production line
never stops running 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Continuous production usually relies
on high levels of automation and very few workers are used.
What is a CNC Mahine? - CORRECT --On a CNC machine, it is possible to make
hundreds or even thousands of the same item in a day. First, a design is drawn using
design software, then it is processed by the computer and manufactured using the CNC
machine.
le of the machine can be moved to an accuracy of 0.02mm
Special attachments can be mounted on the machine to perform operations that are
performed in other machine tools
Disadvantage: Too many fking parts to label
The cost of the milling machine is high
Uses a lot of electricity
What the hell does a Turning Machine do?? - CORRECT --Turning is a form of
machining, a material removal process, which is used to create rotational parts by
cutting away unwanted material.
Describe the process of Sand Casting plz m8 - CORRECT --
Two freaking H&S issues with sand casting - CORRECT --Be cautious and pay
attention to your surroundings.
Wear PPE
2 advantages and disadvantages of sand casting :D - CORRECT --Advantage: Low
cost
Can produce large castings
Disadvantage: Bad surface finish (due to sand indentation)
Many defects arise in the casting (no good control on the process, die casting is much
better)
What is MIG Welding? - CORRECT --Metal inert gas (MIG) welding is a welding
process in which an electric arc forms between a consumable wire electrode and the
workpiece metal(s), which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to melt and join.
2 advantages and disadvantages of MIG welding please - CORRECT --Advantage:
Creates a clean join
Suitable for large scale production
