Bind Winder (Electric Motor Manufacturing)
ばいんどまきこう（でんどうきせいぞう）
Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Manufacturing job that winds copper wire around the armature or stator of electric motors (motors) to ensure winding accuracy.
Description
Bind winders specialize in coil winding for electric motors, generators, and other electrical machinery. They operate wire winding machines to wind copper wire onto stators or armatures at specified number of turns, pitch, and tension. After winding, they perform end processing such as inserting insulating paper, impregnating with resin, soldering lead wires, and conduct insulation resistance and continuity inspections to confirm quality. They collaborate with assembly and testing processes on the manufacturing line to contribute to mass production of high-quality electric motors. The job also involves manual fine adjustments and handling machine troubles, requiring dexterity with hands and strong concentration.
Future Outlook
Demand for electric motors is expanding in fields such as EVs, industrial robots, and renewable energy. While automation technology is advancing, skills in precise winding work remain important, and demand is expected to be stable by enhancing quality control capabilities.
