Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A manufacturing job that assembles, adjusts, and inspects major components of marine engines using dedicated equipment.
Description
Marine engine assembly equipment operators assemble parts such as cylinder blocks, pistons, crankshafts, and gears for engines mounted on ships using welding, bolt fastening, and torque management devices like torque wrenches. They read blueprints and inspect precision using measuring instruments such as micrometers and dial gauges. They also operate production equipment, change setups, perform regular inspections and maintenance, and proceed with work while paying attention to safety, hygiene, and quality control. Standing work under high temperatures and noise, as well as handling heavy equipment, requires physical strength and attention.
Future Outlook
With increasing ship transport volumes and responses to environmental regulations boosting demand for energy-efficient engines, the demand for specialized skilled workers is expected to remain stable. Adaptation to automation and digitalization of assembly work will also be required.
