Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A profession that cleans and pre-treats the surface of metal products using electrochemical methods to support high-quality plating adhesion.
Description
Electrolytic cleaning workers (plating) are specialized technicians who clean, degrease, and pickle metal parts using electrochemical methods before plating to optimally prepare the surface. They control the concentration and temperature of the electrolyte solution, as well as current and voltage, to achieve uniform and defect-free processing. After processing, they conduct appearance inspections and adhesion tests, analyze defect causes, and improve processes. Safety and health management is crucial when handling chemicals, supporting the overall quality and production efficiency of the line.
Future Outlook
With increasing demand for high-precision plating for electric vehicle parts and semiconductor manufacturing, demand for highly specialized electrolytic cleaning workers is expanding.
