Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Electron tube assemblers precisely assemble components of electron tubes such as vacuum tubes, seal them, and then perform evacuation and inspection as manufacturing technicians.
Description
Electron tube assemblers assemble glass cathode, anode, grid, and other components according to prescribed procedures, and perform evacuation and glass sealing. After assembly, they ensure quality through leak tests and performance inspections, finishing the product to a shippable state. Work is conducted in a clean room, requiring an awareness of contributing to precision equipment.
Future Outlook
Although demand for electron tubes is declining due to the prevalence of semiconductors and others, a certain niche market remains for special applications and retro products, so combining with other skills will be important for future stability.
