Mechanical Engineering Industry

Mechanical engineering industry encompasses all mechanical operations like designing, manufacturing or maintenance of mechanical structures. Mechanical engineering industry also deals with the engineering equipments and accessories like spacecrafts, automobiles etc. Mechanical engineering industry can be treated as a profitable industry, specifically in the field of robotics.

Areas of mechanical engineering industry
Major areas of mechanical engineering industry include designing, manufacturing, finding out the strength of materials or the amount of heat transfers or energy conversion etc., studying solid mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, instrumentation and measurement etc.
 

Research works in mechanical engineering industry

Major research works are going on mechanical engineering field of Robotics, which is a field of mechanical engineering primarily concerned with the development and application of robots. Robots can produce mechanical motion for locomotion of mechanical parts of any mechanical components or machines. Some other major areas of mechanical engineering fields, where lots of research works are going on are micro or nano mechanics(study of behavior of atoms for the production of extremely small sized mechanical components), bio-mechanics & engineering (a field which combines biology with engineering mechanics).
 

Mechanical engineering industry economy and employment opportunities and market potentiality

Mechanical engineering industry is regarded as a major industry throughout the world, specifically in European union and U.S. and due to it's huge volume of production, this industry produces maximum employment opportunities. This industry is the world's primary capital goods provider and that is why it has an enormous impact over the economy of any country.Other industries are also supported and assisted by mechanical engineering industry in respect of increasing quality of process, developing new processes or innovating new techniques.

Employment opportunities : For the last couple of years, the employment opportunities of mechanical engineering industry remains unchanging. Some of the common mechanical engineering job categories are Assistant Engineers, Assistant Executive Engineers, Executive Engineers, Superintendent, Junior Engineer, and other technically skilled workers. Some other fields of mechanical engineering, where there are recruitment opportunities are production operations, maintenance, technical sales, managers and administration.
