Summary
This occupation involves assembling parts of manufactured overhead cranes (cranes and hoists), performing welding, bolt fastening, operation tests, and safety inspections to prepare them for shipment.
Description
Crane Finishing Assemblers are specialists who assemble and finish overhead cranes and hoists in factories or on-site. Based on drawings and instructions, they assemble components such as frames, booms, winches, wire ropes, and hooks, and perform arc welding and bolt fastening. Afterward, they conduct operation tests, fine adjustments, and safety device inspections to ensure the equipment meets standards and is ready for shipment. The work requires slinging and crane operation skills, as well as coordinated teamwork and work at heights.
