  • Set up, operate, or tend plating machines to coat metal or plastic products with chromium, zinc, copper, cadmium, nickel, or other metal to protect or decorate surfaces. Typically, the product being coated is immersed in molten metal or an electrolytic solution.

  • Cut metal or other materials, using shears or band saws.
  • Adjust controls to set temperatures of coating substances and speeds of machines and equipment.
  • Attach nozzles, position guns, connect hoses, and thread wire to set up metal-spraying machines.
  • Measure and set stops, rolls, brushes, and guides on automatic feeders and conveying equipment or coating machines, using micrometers, rules, and hand tools.
  • Observe gauges to ensure that machines are operating properly, making adjustments or stopping machines when problems occur.
  • Operate hoists to place workpieces onto machine feed carriages or spindles.
  • Position and feed materials into processing machines, by hand or by using automated equipment.
  • Read production schedules to determine setups of equipment and machines.
  • Remove excess materials or impurities from objects, using air hoses or grinding machines.
  • Set up, operate, or tend plating or coating machines to coat metal or plastic products with chromium, zinc, copper, cadmium, nickel, or other metal to protect or decorate surfaces.
  • Test machinery to ensure that it is operating properly.

  • Cut industrial materials in preparation for fabrication or processing.
  • Measure materials to mark reference points, cutting lines, or other indicators.
