Magnetic Steel Manufacturing Worker
じこうせいぞうこう
Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Specialist who melts iron and other elements to manufacture special steel (magnetic steel) with magnetic properties in an integrated process.
Description
Magnetic steel manufacturing workers use electric furnaces, vacuum degassing furnaces, etc., to melt and refine iron and alloy elements, then produce special steel with magnetic properties through continuous casting and rolling. They maintain product specifications through temperature control and chemical composition analysis, while also handling safety management and equipment maintenance. Work in high-temperature environments, emergency responses, and stable production through teamwork are required.
Future Outlook
Stable demand is expected due to expanding needs for magnetic materials in electric vehicles, wind power generation, etc. Advances in automation and digitalization require sophisticated process control and IoT technology skills.
