Summary
Manufacturing line worker who assembles automobile accelerators (accelerator pedals or throttle valves), performs torque management, and conducts operation tests.
Description
Automobile accelerator installers are specialists who assemble parts related to the accelerator system (accelerator pedals, throttle bodies, torque sensors, etc.). On the production line, they read assembly drawings and use tools such as drivers and torque wrenches to accurately install parts. After installation, they perform operation inspections and torque measurements to confirm compliance with standards and create quality records. If abnormalities are found, they immediately report to the line leader and participate in improvement activities. In recent years, wiring work and software inspections have increased due to the advancement of electrification parts and sensor technology.
Future Outlook
With the electrification of automobiles and the development of autonomous driving technology, demand for assembly and adjustment skills for sensors and electronic parts will increase. Although line automation will progress, the need for workers with advanced quality management skills is expected to continue.
