Classification
Summary
Operators who operate and manage machines that apply sizing agent to fabrics or yarns in the spinning and fabric scouring processes.
Description
Paste applicator operators operate sizing machines (paste applicators) used in spinning and fabric scouring processes, applying sizing agent uniformly to yarns or fabrics to improve strength and abrasion resistance. They prepare raw material formulations and machine settings to maintain stable production line operation. They regularly perform product quality inspections to prevent defects, and conduct machine cleaning and simple maintenance. They also adjust work conditions to improve efficiency and yield, and modify formulations based on sizing agent properties. In case of abnormalities, they collaborate with process supervisors for raw material replacement or repairs.
Future Outlook
While the domestic textile industry is in a shrinking trend, demand for functional fiber products is expected to increase, and stable demand can be anticipated by enhancing expertise.
