Occupations | Operates machines to fabricate wafer-type (flat) dry cells: Loads feeding mechanism with materials, such as plastic film, paper, zinc and carbon plates, and silver wax. Starts machine and equipment that cuts piece of plastic film for base of cell, positions and presses zinc plate on plastic film, cuts and places paper cover on zinc plate, drops core (black mix) on plastic film, positions carbon plate on core, deposits sealing compound on carbon plate, covers plate with plastic film, tamps and seals cell and trims edges, and applies silver wax to negative and positive ends. Observes finished cells conveyed past mirror to detect defects. Adjusts machine and equipment for size changes or to correct malfunctions, such as faulty tinning, sealing, and trimming, using handtools. Directs workers extruding black mix cores and feeding cores to machine. (references) |
| Tends machines that automatically deposit and bake batter in molds to form wafers: Lights gas burners to heat baking molds. Fills hopper of machine with batter. Starts machine and turns setscrew to regulate amount of batter deposited in mold. Turns thermostat to adjust temperature of baking molds. Observes color of baked wafers being ejected onto conveyor to detect defects. May be designated according to type of wafer made as Sugar-Wafer-Machine Operator (bakery products). May tend machine that also rolls batter into shape of cones prior to baking and be designated Cone Baker, Machine (bakery products). (references) | |
