Summary
A manufacturing job that handles everything from mixing raw materials for mosquito coils to forming, drying, inspection, and packaging.
Description
Mosquito coil manufacturing workers handle a series of processes in mosquito coil production, from weighing and mixing raw materials, feeding into forming machines, post-forming drying and firing processes, quality inspection, to packaging. They are required to operate manufacturing lines, handle machines, manage quality, and comply with safety and health standards. Although manufacturing processes are standardized in manuals, maintaining quality in each process and responding to issues are necessary. Physical strength is also required due to long hours of standing work and raw material handling.
