Unit of Competency | PMC557093A - Design a refractory_ceramic component |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit of competency covers confirming the application and conditions of use of the proposed component and then designing the most appropriate component for that use. It is intended for refractory experts who will most likely also have some management responsibility. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency requires the application of knowledge about types of refractories, refractory properties and uses to the design of an appropriate refractory/ceramic component for a specified end use. This may be manufactured in a jobbing shop environment, or it may be a routine product manufactured by batch or continuous means. This unit does NOT cover the selection of the refractory material which is covered by PMC557090A Select refractory materials for an application. The units are obviously related and it may be appropriate to consider both concurrently.This unit applies to individuals who will be designing a refractory component. They may be working in liaison with other refractory specialists or they may be the sole refractory specialist for this job/in their organisation. They will typically be liaising with a range of other technical experts as well as management and maybe accounts. The components could be a refractory sleeve for a valve in an engine, a refractory tip for a flame lance or other application requiring a refractory component of a product.This unit may apply to individuals working for an organisation which supplies refractory components, is a refractory consulting organisation or a client organisation which buys and uses the refractory component. | ||
