Summary
Specializes in embossing paper calendars, imparting a three-dimensional effect and decorative appeal to designs.
Description

They handle machine changeovers, die replacements, fine adjustments, and quality inspections after processing, checking paper strength, positional accuracy, and color shifts relative to printing. They collaborate with printing workers and bookbinding workers to operate the production line in line with delivery schedules.
Future Outlook
Due to the progress of digitalization, demand for paper calendars is on a declining trend, but demand for high-end gifts and added-value products for advertising is expected to be maintained to a certain extent.
