Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Specialized job in the manufacturing process of ropes made from chemical fibers, operating a tube winder to wind raw yarn onto a tube at constant tension and speed.
Description
The Tube Winder (Synthetic Fiber Rope Manufacturing) is responsible for winding raw yarn onto a tube (core tube) at constant tension and speed in the rope manufacturing line using chemical fibers as raw material. Specifically, they handle tube winder setup, raw yarn threading, tension adjustment, monitoring of winding speed, visual and dimensional inspection of the wound rope, confirmation of the finish, identify causes if abnormalities occur, and adjust the equipment. They also contribute to maintaining and improving production efficiency and quality through regular machine inspections, cleaning, and simple maintenance tasks.
Future Outlook
While production lines advance in automation and labor reduction, synthetic fiber ropes have stable demand across multiple uses such as construction, civil engineering, and fishing, and the need for workers with advanced skills in machine operation and maintenance is expected to continue.
