Summary
A manufacturing technician who assembles bicycle frame parts through assembly, welding, polishing, and inspection to complete the product.
Description
Bicycle frame assemblers select and cut pipe parts based on drawings, accurately assemble them using jigs and fixtures, and join them with argon TIG welding or arc welding. Afterward, they perform polishing and deburring, and conduct quality inspections for dimensions, strength, and appearance. They maintain high precision in manufacturing lines or manual work while ensuring production efficiency, and hand over to the painting process. Since it requires detailed work and physical strength, knowledge of safety, hygiene, and quality management is also important.
Future Outlook
While lightweighting and the adoption of carbon materials advance, the introduction of automation and robot welding is expanding, requiring both specialized skills and machine operation abilities.
