Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Cement tile manufacturing workers are operators who produce roof tiles using cement as the main raw material, handling a series of processes from material mixing to molding, drying, finishing, and quality inspection.
Description
Cement tile manufacturing workers measure and mix aggregates such as cement and sand in specified ratios, and use specialized molding machines to high-pressure mold them into tiles. After molding, they undergo initial curing, then harden them in a drying furnace under appropriate temperature and humidity control. They perform finishing processes such as demolding, deburring, and waterproof coating. Finally, they conduct quality inspections for dimensions, strength, and appearance, and pack and ship the approved products. On a daily basis, they handle machine operations, fine adjustments to mixing ratios, management of drying conditions, recording of quality data, and also contribute to safety and hygiene management and line efficiency improvements.
Future Outlook
Demand is stable to gradually declining due to fluctuations in housing starts and the adoption of new materials. As factory automation and labor reduction progress, there is a high likelihood of demand for expertise in equipment management and quality control.
