Metal Wire Spray Rust Prevention Worker
きんぞくせんほうしゃさびどめこう
Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Specialized worker who uses metal wire as feed wire to perform high-temperature arc spraying, applying rust-preventive and wear-resistant coatings to industrial products and structures.
Description
The metal wire spray rust prevention worker uses dedicated equipment to melt metal wire with a high-temperature arc, sprays it with compressed air, and applies it to the surface using the arc spraying method for rust-preventive coating. Prior to work, perform surface preparation such as wire brushing or shot blasting, and adjust the wire material, feed speed, and air pressure to ensure uniform film thickness. After application, inspect the thickness and adhesion, and perform grinding or finishing processes as necessary. Use protective clothing and ventilation equipment to counter high-temperature flying metal particles, and thoroughly manage safety.
Future Outlook
Demand for rust prevention in infrastructure aging countermeasures, ships, and bridges remains stable, with expectations for improved work efficiency through IoT devices for film thickness management and introduction of high-efficiency automated equipment.
