Mechanical, Fabrication and Plastics Engineering in the Waikato
Engineering covers a variety of fields. People who work in engineering are not motor mechanics. They may weld, machine, bend, cut and shape light and heavy steel, including stainless, carbon or mild steel, aluminium and galvanised sheet. They may build special purpose machines. Some may engage in precision toolmaking, design and product development. Waikato engineers may work in aluminium extrusion, steel tube manufacturing or plastic moulding.
