Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A job that crushes and blends raw materials such as cement clinker to produce construction cement powder.
Description
Cement powder workers use crushers or ball mills to pulverize clinker obtained by firing limestone and clay into fine powder, and blend it with additives such as gypsum to manufacture cement powder. They strictly manage the input amounts of raw materials and mixing ratios, and perform quality inspections such as particle size and strength tests. They monitor and operate machinery on the production line, and perform initial responses and simple maintenance work when performance declines or abnormalities occur. They work in shift-based factory operations, where safety and health management, such as dust control measures and checks on machine safety devices, is also an important task.
Future Outlook
While influenced by construction demand, understanding of new manufacturing processes will be required due to environmental regulations and the introduction of low-carbon technologies. With the advancement of automation, operator duties are expected to shift toward monitoring and management.
