Staff can assist you with material selection, suppliers and suggested contacts for external service providers (such as materials, heat treatment, tooling, and other requirements). In most instances, this information is provided by the Lab Technical Officer in charge of the lab you are working in.

To submit a job or request to the workshop please follow the instructions below: 

1. Discuss the job with the Technical Officer in charge of your relevant area before developing the detailed drawings. Technical Officers are happy to provide guidance in design, material selection and manufacture. 
2. Develop the necessary drawings/sketches then meet with your Lab Technical staff to confirm concept design and ability to manufacture. 
3. Complete the drawings in CAD, confirm Workshop Job Form is complete, confirm drawings have all relevant dimensions, tolerances and finish details and are checked/confirmed with your Technical Officer for ability to manufacture. Your Technical Officer will arrange a meeting with workshop staff to discuss manufacturing details if necessary. If relevant, a cost estimate will be discussed at this stage. 
4. Obtain final signature and approval from the Technical Officer in your lab area, Academic Supervisor (if student), and cost-centre approver. 
5. Order appropriate materials with your Technical Officer. 
6. Submit the final drawings to mech.workshop@unsw.edu.au or in person to the workshop (room 120, J18). 

* Please note that the job will not appear in the queue until all drawings are complete, material is available and any specially purchased tooling has arrived. 

In line with other workshops in the Faculty of Engineering, the following fees will be charged for parts manufactured in the MME workshop: 

• $75 per hour for UNSW jobs external to our School 
• Materials and consumables will be charged
• Cost estimates will be provided in good faith for jobs. Please note that time estimates may not be possible for very large or complex jobs – a fixed price will be agreed on at the discussion in step 3 below 
• Jobs will be billed on the lowest price – either estimate or actual, whichever is lowest 
• If a job has been quoted more competitively outside then the workshop will endeavour to meet the quoted price. Academic staff can choose to have the job done outside 
• A cost centre will need to be provided for all jobs
