Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
This occupation involves inspecting the appearance, dimensions, and quality of glass tableware manufactured in factories and sorting good products from defective ones.
Description
Glass tableware inspectors use visual inspection and measuring instruments (calipers, projectors, optical inspection devices, etc.) on glass tableware produced in factories to check for defects such as scratches, cracks, bubbles, and dimensional errors. They record inspection results, sort and remove defective products, report to the quality control department, and participate in proposals for improving the manufacturing process. Inspection lines may combine manual work with automatic inspection devices, requiring both speed and accuracy. The job often involves long hours of standing and repetitive motions, necessitating concentration and physical stamina.
Future Outlook
While the introduction of automatic inspection devices and AI-based inspection technologies is advancing, human visual confirmation will remain, so the demand for skilled inspectors is expected to persist. The number of job openings is anticipated to remain stable due to the balance between rising quality demands and automation.
