About the Role

The successful candidate will have a strong background in blown film extrusion operations, with a minimum of 3 years' experience in the flexible packaging industry. You will be responsible for ensuring the production process runs smoothly, meets quality specifications, and operates within safety and environmental standards.

Key Responsibilities
  • Set up and operate extrusion machines to produce plastic films (polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.) for flexible packaging.
  • Adjust machine settings (temperature, pressure, speed, etc.) to ensure proper extrusion of plastic materials. Monitor machine operations and control parameters during production to maintain optimal extrusion quality.
Quality Control
  • Conduct periodic quality checks during the extrusion process (e.g., measure film thickness, tensile strength, and surface properties).
  • Record production data such as material weights, machine parameters, and quality test results.
  • Ensure extruded products meet customer specifications and internal standards before passing to the next production stage.
Process Monitoring and Adjustment
  • Regularly inspect and test extruded materials to ensure they meet specified quality standards such as thickness, width, color, and clarity.
  • Make real-time adjustments to the machine controls as needed to ensure consistent product quality.
  • Diagnose and troubleshoot operational issues such as die lines, air bubbles, thickness variations, and other material defects.
Material Handling and Documentation
  • Load raw materials such as resin pellets and additives into the machine hoppers.
  • Track and record material usage, wastage, and production output for reporting.
  • Ensure efficient use of materials to minimize waste and optimize productivity.
Safety and Compliance
  • Follow all safety protocols, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
  • Ensure all activities comply with environmental, health, and safety regulations.
  • Identify and report any safety hazards or incidents to the supervisor immediately.

We offer a competitive salary range of $55,000 - $65,000 per year, depending on experience, to attract top talent in the field.
