About

A mechanical drafter is a technical professional who uses computer-aided design (CAD) software to create detailed drawings and specifications for mechanical devices and systems. They work closely with engineers and other technical professionals to translate design ideas into technical drawings that can be used to manufacture products.

Mechanical drafters prepare layouts that show the details for a wide variety of machinery and mechanical tools and devices, such as medical equipment. These layouts indicate dimensions, fastening methods, and other requirements needed for assembly. Mechanical drafters sometimes create production molds.
