Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Vibropolisher workers are manufacturing technicians who use vibratory polishing machines to deburr and finish the surfaces of metal parts.
Description
Vibropolisher workers operate vibratory polishing machines (vibro machines) to deburr and achieve mirror surface finishes on metal parts by vibrating them with polishing media inside a barrel. During the process, they monitor the polishing progress and adjust the media, time, and vibration intensity. Finished parts are visually inspected after washing and drying to confirm they meet quality standards. Regular machine inspections, maintenance, and safety and hygiene management are also important tasks.
Future Outlook
With advances in automation and labor reduction, machine automatic adjustment technology and robotization will progress, but the need for manual finishing processes is expected to continue.
