How do they match: Extruding and Forming Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Synthetic and Glass Fibers

  • Set up, operate, or tend machines that extrude and form continuous filaments from synthetic materials, such as liquid polymer, rayon, and fiberglass.

  • Start metering pumps and observe operation of machines and equipment to ensure continuous flow of filaments extruded through spinnerettes and to detect processing defects.

  • Mark products, workpieces, or equipment with identifying information.
