Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A job that manufactures base fabric for industrial hoses using looms, performs quality control, and adjusts machinery.
Description
Hose fabric weavers set up raw yarn (warp and weft) on looms, adjust tension and width, and manufacture base fabric for industrial hoses. During production, they monitor weave conditions, yarn breaks, and machine abnormalities, and conduct quality inspections. As needed, they replace machine parts or perform simple maintenance, and hand over the woven fabric to post-processing steps such as heat treatment or coating. Knowledge of factory safety management, adherence to work standards, and occupational health and safety is also required.
Future Outlook
Although the number of job openings is decreasing due to the shrinking scale of the domestic textile industry, the demand for specialized technicians is expected to continue due to the need for higher functionality in industrial hoses.
