Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Bulky processed yarn manufacturing workers apply bulking processing (heating and mechanical treatment) to chemical fiber raw yarn to produce bulky yarn. They handle machine operation, quality inspection, machine adjustment, and more.
Description
Bulky processed yarn manufacturing workers set chemical fiber raw yarn (nylon, polyester, etc.) into machines and handle processes such as heat treatment, stretching, and twisting to impart expansion and crimp to the yarn, creating volume. During production, they manage temperature, tension, rotation speed, etc., and adjust machines to ensure product bulkiness and properties meet specifications. Duties also include inspecting product appearance and dimensions, machine cleaning and maintenance inspections, and safety and health management. Most work in factories with 2-3 shift systems, where tasks are standardized, but fine observation and adjustment skills are required to maintain quality.
Future Outlook
Due to rationalization in the textile industry and shifts in production overseas, the number of factories is decreasing. However, demand for special and high value-added bulky processed yarn remains stable, and with advancing automation of equipment, there is demand for personnel with advanced adjustment skills.
