Summary
Specialized profession that assembles, adjusts, and calibrates precision measuring instruments and optical devices.
Description
Measuring instrument assemblers refer to exploded views and assembly drawings to assemble fine parts, optical elements, and electronic components by hand and with specialized tools. They use torque drivers and microscopes to check the positional accuracy of parts, and use calibration devices to verify and adjust performance. Much of the work is done on production lines or in clean rooms, involving measurements and records in line with quality standards to prevent defects. They may also be involved in handling new products, process improvements, and regular maintenance.
Future Outlook
Due to advancing manufacturing and research and development needs, the demand for assemblers and calibration technicians of precision measuring instruments is expected to remain stable. With the progress of automation, higher-level adjustment techniques and digital calibration skills will be required.
