Summary
A manufacturing job involving assembly of parts, sewing, inspection, packaging, and other finishing processes for bag-shaped products.
Description
Bag assembly and finishing workers handle processing steps such as attaching handles and gussets, sewing with sewing machines, and hot melt processing for bag-shaped products like paper bags, vinyl bags, and cloth bags. Based on work instruction sheets, they perform manual operations, operate sewing machines and dedicated machinery to crease products, apply glue, adjust print positions, inspect for foreign matter and defects, and carry out final packaging and shipment preparation.
