Summary
Slurry filter operators manage and operate filtration equipment to adjust the moisture content of slurry used in the ceramics and porcelain manufacturing process.
Description
Slurry filter operators manage and operate filtration devices (such as vacuum filters and belt filters) that separate water from the suspension of ceramic raw materials called slurry. They handle a wide range of tasks from starting up the equipment, adjusting filtrate flow rates and suction pressure, measuring filter cake dryness and moisture content, replacing and cleaning filter cloths, to daily inspections and simple maintenance. To ensure stable operation of the production line and maintain quality, they are required to manage work records and equipment data, investigate causes and provide initial response in case of abnormalities.
