Classification

Summary

Manufacturing job that assembles parts of transformers (such as transformers), performs insulation processing, oil filling, and performance testing.

Description

Transformer assemblers are technical professionals specializing in the assembly of transformers, which are a type of electrical machinery. The work involves layering the core, coil winding, placing insulation materials, pressing and binding, attaching terminals, etc., based on drawings and specifications, followed by vacuum degassing, oil filling, and sealing processes to complete the product. After completion, various electrical tests such as insulation resistance measurement, withstand voltage testing, and load testing are conducted to confirm that the performance meets the standards. A variety of tools and measuring instruments are used, including screwdrivers, torque wrenches, soldering irons, and meters, and safety management and quality control are crucial.

Future Outlook

Stable demand is expected due to increasing needs for renewable energy and high-efficiency transformers. Technological skills improvement will be required with energy-saving measures and IoT adoption.
