Summary
Manufacturing operator who heats glass materials at high temperatures and performs heat treatments such as forming, processing, and annealing.
Description
Glass heat processing workers heat various glass materials in equipment such as tunnel furnaces or batch furnaces to soften them, then produce products with specified shapes and strengths through processes like press forming, stretching, and annealing. They handle temperature adjustment, equipment operation, quality inspection, and safety management. As the work involves a high-temperature environment, appropriate protective gear and adherence to work procedures are required.
Future Outlook
While automation and IoT technologies are advancing, skilled workers are still needed for quality control and special processing, so stable demand is expected in the medium to long term.
