Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Insulated glass manufacturing workers combine multiple glass sheets with an intermediate layer to produce insulated and soundproof double-glazed glass. They handle the entire process from preparing raw sheets, cutting, cleaning, assembling, sealing, to inspection.
Description
Insulated glass manufacturing workers produce double-glazed glass with insulation and soundproofing performance for homes and buildings. They handle the import and cutting of glass raw sheets, grinding, removal of foreign matter using cleaning machines, insertion of intermediate spacers, vacuum injection and sealing operations, and complete the product through pressurization and heating processes. During manufacturing, they monitor process parameters such as temperature and air pressure, and after completion, they check quality using inspection devices for thickness and airtightness. The factory environment involves high temperatures and dust, so operation of safety devices and wearing of protective gear are essential.
Future Outlook
Demand remains stable due to energy-saving and high-insulation trends in housing and commercial facilities. In the future, automation and labor reduction in production lines will advance, placing greater emphasis on machine maintenance and quality management skills.
