Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Unglazed roof tile dryers manage the drying of molded roof tile blanks using drying equipment, preparing them for the subsequent firing process.
Description
Unglazed roof tile dryers set roof tile blanks (unglazed tiles) into drying equipment, manage appropriate temperature and humidity during the drying process, and prepare them for the next firing stage. They load molded tiles onto racks or trolleys, check drying room conditions and progress, and aim for uniform drying without quality variations. They also perform measurements using temperature/humidity sensors and moisture meters, record drying history, and conduct daily inspections and simple maintenance of equipment. Work is performed in high-temperature, high-humidity environments, collaborating with other process workers in line operations to achieve production targets.
Future Outlook
Amid fluctuations in the construction market and advancing automation of production lines, demand is expected to gradually decline. However, technicians skilled in labor-saving equipment and quality control will continue to see steady demand.
