Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Specialized profession that performs polishing as the final finishing process for fine ceramics products, enhancing dimensional accuracy and surface quality.
Description
Fine ceramics product polishers are specialists who precisely finish the surfaces of parts and products formed from fine ceramics materials such as alumina and zirconia using polishing tools and abrasives. They select appropriate buffs, grinding stones, diamond pads, etc., and adjust product dimensions and surface roughness to specified values through manual or machine polishing. They conduct quality inspections using visual checks and surface roughness meters, and correct minute defects. They also optimize processing procedures based on material characteristics and polishing condition data, contributing to improved production efficiency and reduced waste. Work may involve clean rooms or high-temperature environments, requiring stable manual dexterity and attention.
Future Outlook
With increasing demand for fine ceramics in precision equipment and semiconductor manufacturing equipment, the need for polishing technicians is stable or increasing. The introduction of automation and AI-based inspection technologies will further demand advanced skills and quality management capabilities.
