Transformation of manufacturing industry roles

00:03

In this module we will be discussing the

00:06

transformation of three key roles in the manufacturing industry

00:10

mechanical engineers,

00:12

manufacturing production engineers,

00:15

and CNC machinists.

00:17

In the past,

00:18

these roles operated separately with isolated workflows.

00:22

However,

00:23

in the coming years,

00:24

these roles will collaborate and work

00:26

together continuously along with production.

00:30

Workflows will be interconnected.

00:32

Engineers will require more systems engineering skills.

00:35

The divide between engineering and manufacturing will diminish.

00:39

Additionally,

00:40

mechanical and manufacturing engineers will have equal qualifications

00:44

in the next 5 to 10 years.
