OK, since I'm getting no agrees, here's some more suggestions.
"Carta" can sometimes be translated as "letter", but I don't think that's appropriate in the context. It can also be translated as "chart", and a Google search for "engineering chart" gets more than 1/4 of a million results. However, without further information, I still think that my original suggestion is probably the best option.

"When creating an engineering chart, whether you are using Excel or using freehand methods, you must include proper labels with proper units for each axis."
