Summary
A job that operates looms to manufacture polar fabrics (such as fleece), handling yarn setup, machine adjustments, quality inspections, and maintenance.
Description
Polar weavers are loom operators who produce polar fabrics such as fleece materials. Starting from yarn preparation like warping and shuttle insertion, they control machine tension adjustments, speed settings, and weft insertion. The woven fabric is inspected visually or with measuring instruments and prepared for handover to processes like raising (napping). They routinely perform machine checks and simple maintenance to stabilize the production line.
Future Outlook
While automation and IoT introduction advance mechanization, demand for special materials and high-function textiles remains stable. Demand for technicians with advanced quality management skills continues to be high.
