Coating Worker (Artificial Stone Manufacturing)
ぬりこみこう（じんぞうせきせいぞう）
Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Specialized worker in the artificial stone manufacturing process who manually applies material mixed with resin and powder into molds.
Description
Coating workers manufacture artificial stones such as artificial marble. They accurately blend resin, powder (cement or pigments), and aggregates, perform deaeration treatment, and then uniformly apply the mixture into molds. They adjust the color tone, thickness, and pattern balance, and fix it under specified curing conditions (temperature and humidity). After curing, they demold it from the mold and hand it over to the next processes of polishing and finishing. The work requires high attention to detail in measurement and mixing accuracy, ensuring uniformity in application, quality inspection, and adherence to work procedures. Additionally, since handling resin chemicals, wearing safety equipment and hygiene management are necessary.
Future Outlook
With the demand for remodeling and new construction of residential and commercial facilities, the demand for artificial stone is expected to remain stable. In the future, advancements in automation technology and the development of environmentally friendly materials will require responses to improve work efficiency and quality.
