Summary
Bulb glass manufacturing workers handle manufacturing tasks from glass forming to filament installation, vacuum sealing, sealing, and quality inspection.
Description
Bulb glass manufacturing workers heat glass with automatic forming machines to shape it into tubular or spherical bulbs, and remove stress in an annealing furnace. They attach metal electrodes or filaments to the formed bulbs, perform evacuation and sealing with a vacuum pump, inject gas, and seal them. Finally, they conduct quality inspections such as leak tests and dimensional checks, and handle packaging and shipping preparation according to shipping specifications.
