Dips latex from drum into cans, and conveys filled cans on handtruck to machine holding tanks. Pours latex into gravity flow tank to maintain specified tank level. Starts machine that moves forms through various vats, driers, ovens, and rinses in continuous operation to form product. Removes sample of latex goods from form after final dip, weighs it, and adds solution of ammonia or latex to tank when weight does not meet requirements. Changes filters in latex tanks. Replaces dirty, loose, or broken forms on conveyor. Adds water softener to curing tanks. Verifies temperature and humidity on instrument control charts. (references) |
| Tends machine that coats continuous sheet of plastic material with synthetic resin solutions to impart special properties, such as heat resistance, impact strength, or waterproofing: Loads roll of material onto unwind stand, using overhead hoist. Threads material through rollers of coating machine, drier unit, and onto winding machine. Sets controls to regulate speed of material feed and amount of coating solution. Sets tension on material by adjusting speed of unwind and windup rolls. Turns valves to regulate steam or turns on infrared lamps to control drier temperature and moisture. Examines material passing through drier and onto windup machine for wrinkles or breaks. Patches breaks, using glue. Maintains log of machine running time and number of rolls processed.
