- Develop and implement quality control procedures for assessing paper properties such as grammage (GSM), moisture content, tensile strength, and color consistency.
- Ensure that raw materials (e.g., kraft liner, test liner, recycled liner) meet specific quality standards and are consistent across batches.
- Conduct inspections on finished products, ensuring they meet specifications for strength, durability, and aesthetic quality.
Die-Cut Selection and Sizing:
- Analyze product requirements and customer specifications to determine appropriate die-cuts and ensure that the sizing of each product is correct.
- Work with the production team to select and verify die-cut dimensions, layouts, and designs, ensuring products meet exact size and shape specifications for packaging.
- Optimize die-cut designs to minimize waste and increase efficiency, considering material usage and production constraints.
Operational Oversight and Process Improvement:
- Oversee general production processes to ensure they align with quality standards and recommend improvements where necessary.
- Conduct root cause analysis on production defects and collaborate with production teams to implement corrective actions.
- Monitor process parameters, track quality metrics, and provide regular reports on quality performance to management.
Compliance and Standards:
- Ensure compliance with industry standards, such as ISO 9001, as well as health, safety, and environmental regulations in the cardboard manufacturing industry.
- Establish and uphold safety protocols related to quality control processes, including the handling of materials and machinery in production.
