Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A job that uses metalworking machines to process and manufacture bolts from metal materials.
Description
The bolt manufacturing worker (using metalworking machines) operates metalworking machines such as lathes and milling machines to process bolts from metal materials, including threading, polishing, and finishing. Based on work instructions, they handle machine setup, tool selection, and cutting condition settings, and strictly manage dimensions using measuring instruments such as calipers and micrometers. To ensure product quality, they collaborate with heat treatment and surface treatment processes while handling stable production in small-lot multi-variety or mass production lines.
