How do they match: Plating Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic

  • Carbon Paper Coating Machine Setter

  • Monitor and measure thicknesses of electroplating on component parts to verify conformance to specifications, using micrometers.
  • Operate hoists to place workpieces onto machine feed carriages or spindles.
  • Perform equipment maintenance, such as cleaning tanks and lubricating moving parts of conveyors.
  • Position containers to receive parts, and load or unload materials in containers, using dollies or handtrucks.
  • Replace worn parts and adjust equipment components, using hand tools.
  • Suspend objects, such as parts or molds from cathode rods, or negative terminals, and immerse objects in plating solutions.
