Ammeter Assembler
でんりゅうけいくみたてこう
Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A manufacturing job that assembles mechanical and electrical parts of ammeters, adjusts and calibrates them to ensure accuracy.
Description
Ammeter assemblers combine parts such as coils, magnetic circuits, needle and dial mechanisms, and casings of ammeters, performing soldering, screw tightening, and wiring tasks. After assembly, they use calibration equipment to inspect response accuracy at specified current values and perform fine adjustments (zero adjustment and span adjustment). They ship products that meet quality inspection standards.
The workplace is clean assembly lines in manufacturing factories, centered on standing work and fixed-position tasks. Accurate assembly based on work procedures and drawings is required, and proficiency in handling tools (soldering iron, torque driver, tester, calibration equipment, etc.) is necessary.
Future Outlook
Amid advancing automation and IoT utilization in manufacturing, there is a trend toward demanding expertise in calibration and maintenance beyond assembly due to higher value-added precision measuring instruments. While some tasks are being automated, demand for technicians remains stable.
