Classification
Summary
Metal pipe drawing workers pull metal pipes through dies to finish them to specified dimensions and shapes.
Description
Metal pipe drawing workers set metal pipe material in the drawing machine, select appropriate dies and lubricants, and perform the drawing operation. During processing, they adjust tension and speed to ensure the specified outer diameter and wall thickness, and conduct dimensional inspections using calipers or micrometers. They also perform thorough machine maintenance, cleaning, and safety management, analyze the causes of defects, and implement countermeasures. They work in factory line operations or on shifts, collaborating with manufacturing managers and maintenance staff to support stable production.
