Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Manufacturing work involving precise assembly, adjustment, and inspection of micrometers that measure minute dimensions.
Description
Micrometer assemblers combine minute parts such as spindles, cylinders, and sleeves to complete micrometers. Based on drawings and work instructions, they use specialized tools like torque wrenches, gauge blocks, and microscopes to fix and adjust parts, calibrating precision while confirming tolerances down to the micron level. Work is often performed in clean rooms or semi-clean environments, and understanding of quality control and production management methods such as 5S is also required.
Future Outlook
While manufacturing is advancing in automation and robotization, the assembly of high-precision measuring instruments requires skilled techniques, and steady demand is expected.
