Classification
Summary
Manufacturing position that consistently handles cones for ice cream (such as waffle cones or plain cones) from dough mixing to forming, baking, quality inspection, and packaging.
Description
Cone manufacturing workers start by formulating and mixing dough from raw materials such as flour, sugar, and fats/oils for ice cream cones. They load the mixed dough into waffle forming machines and bake it at appropriate temperatures and times. After baking, they cool the cones, inspect for cracks or color unevenness in quality checks, and send products meeting standards to the packaging line. Operating and monitoring line machines, periodic cleaning and maintenance, hygiene management, and temperature control are also important tasks. They perform fine adjustments to maintain manufacturing efficiency and quality, as well as initial responses to troubles.
Future Outlook
With the growth of the ice cream market, demand for cones is progressing stably. While automation and labor reduction advance, advanced skills in quality control and responses to new products are required.
