Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Display tube assemblers precisely assemble internal structural components of display tubes such as CRT (cathode ray tubes), and perform glass sealing, vacuum evacuation, and discharge testing in manufacturing.
Description
Display tube assemblers place internal mechanisms such as electron guns and deflection coils inside glass bulbs, perform soldering, sealing with sealant materials, and evacuation using vacuum pumps. After assembly, they conduct leak tests, discharge tests, and image quality inspections to confirm compliance with product specifications. Work is often performed in clean environments, requiring manual dexterity and attention to detail.
Future Outlook
Demand is declining due to the shrinking CRT technology market. However, there remains steady demand in niche markets such as vacuum tube audio and special display tubes.
