design engineer Explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_engineer Design engineer is a general term that covers multiple engineering disciplines including electrical, mechanical and civil engineering, architectural engineers in the U.S. and building engineers in the U.K. The design engineer is distinguished from the designer/drafter by virtue of the fact that a design engineer takes care of the inner workings/engineering of a design. While industrial designers may be responsible for the conceptual aesthetic and ergonomic aspects of a design, the design engineer usually works with a team of engineers and designers to develop the preliminary design and the most critical parts. He/she may work with industrial designers and marketing to develop the product concept and specifications, and he/she may direct the design effort from that point. Products are usually designed with input from a number of sources such as manufacturing, purchasing, tool making and packaging engineering. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 mins (2011-03-02 19:40:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.proz.com/kudoz/japanese_to_english/mechanics_mech... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2011-03-02 19:41:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.transwd.com/dico/dicoJ14.htm 設計者 engineer ・Bring the subjective, aesthetic world of the designer and the objective, metric-driven environment of the engineer into harmony. ・Industrial engineer is concerned with the effectiveness, economy, and control of product manufactue. ・Automakers are adding production engineers to their design teams to spur a more economical approach to new ideas. |
