Summary
Weaving Preparation Equipment Operators operate and adjust machines such as warping, sizing, and winding machines prior to the weaving process to prepare supplies for the loom.
Description
Weaving Preparation Equipment Operators manufacture beams (warp yarns arranged in a predetermined order, coated with sizing agent, and wound at appropriate tension) to be set on the weaving machine. They handle tasks such as arranging warp yarns with the warping machine, applying sizing agent with the sizing machine, and winding the beam with the winding machine. They also manage machine startup, fine adjustments, quality inspections, safety management, daily maintenance, and cleaning to support stable production line operation. The work involves standing operations and handling heavy objects in the factory, as well as quality checks using measuring instruments and sensors.
