MECHANICAL CAD                                                                  \ Mechanical engineering talent and education can help you develop a variety of hard skills such as computer design, simulation, and testing. It also requires thorough basic training, recognised as an industry standard. However, in addition to hard skills, you also need some soft skills. Being aware of these requirements is just as important as having hard skills when reviewing and responding to job postings. Without excellent qualifications in both areas, it is difficult to succeed at an optimal level. There are many mechanical engineering courses after 12th which one can pursue to get a foundational knowledge of the field. You should also mention soft skills in your job application. Your cover letter and resume should include both. Must be interviewed with examples of good hard and soft skills demonstrated. 1. Knowledge of First Principles Knowledge of underlying theories and first principles is essential

Mechanical Engineer at Boston Dynamic                                                        Atlas  is a research platform for Boston Dynamics. We use it as a technology demonstrator to push the boundaries of hardware design and control systems. We select applications like dance and parkour to facilitate pushing these boundaries. HOW FAST CAN ATLAS GO? The fastest Atlas has run is around 5.5 mph. There’s a running joke here where we keep thinking the robot is at its hardware limits in terms of strength, speed, and flexibility, but then the software team finds a way to do something more athletic and coordinated than we were ever able to before. So we really don’t know how much more we can extend Atlas’s capabilities with its current design. WHAT WAS THE FIRST PROTOTYPE OF ATLAS? Boston Dynamics’ first humanoid prototype was called PetProto, which was a precursor to our robot Petman. We took two legs from our robot BigDog and tried to get it to balance; later on, we attached arms. That l

CNC MACHINING   CNC 101: The term CNC stands for 'computer numerical control', and the  CNC machining definition  is that it is a subtractive manufacturing process that typically employs computerized controls and machine tools to remove layers of material from a stock piece—known as the blank or workpiece—and produces a custom-designed part. This process is suitable for a wide range of materials, including metals,  plastics , wood,  glass , foam, and composites, and finds application in a variety of industries, such as  large CNC machining , machining of parts and prototypes for telecommunications, and  CNC machining aerospace parts,  which require tighter tolerances than other industries. Note there is a difference between the CNC machining definition and the CNC machine definition—one is a process and the other is a machine. A CNC machine (sometimes incorrectly referred to as a C and C machine) is a programmable machine that is capable of autonomously performing the operation
