Capabilities
Design
Contrary to conventional practice, Jet Engineering utilizes trades people with advanced qualifications to carry out design work from a practical perspective. Possessing both workshop experience and field experience, our design personnel are able to design products that are easier to fabricate, and more user friendly to the end users on site.
Prior to commencing design, we assess each project against the following criteria:
- Is certification and / or finite element analysis required by the customer?
- Will there be unacceptable risk to personnel or property if the product fails?
- Is weight and / or material minimisation important to the end product?
If any of the above criteria apply, we submit our designs for certification by a registered professional engineer.
Drafting
We utilize AutoCAD Mechanical to produce engineering drawings that comply with AS1100.201-1992: Mechanical Engineering Drawing.
Our drafting personnel are able to accurately measure and draw existing components and structures. This allows our workshop to produce components that fit to existing structures and machines without costly and time consuming field modifications.
Fabrication
Jet Engineering operates a modern, 600m2 workshop in Mackay. The operation of the workshop is completely integrated with the operation of the design and drafting sections of the business.
In addition to specialising in small and medium design and construct projects, Jet Engineering's fabrication workshop has the resourcefulness and flexibility to handle all of your jobbing, repair and customization requirements.
Wherever possible, materials are CNC cut (laser cut, water jet or profile cut) to ensure accuracy, finish, and repeatability.
Over time, our goal is to assemble a suite of equipment that will rival the best equipped workshops in North Queensland.
Installation
A key principal of our business is to have the personnel and equipment to install and support our product wherever you require. Our personnel have undertaken site work at the majority of coal mines throughout the Bowen Basin, at the Coal Terminals South of Mackay, and even in Papua New Guinea.
