Job Purpose

Monitoring and executing all the processing activities for the preparatory section and tow section of plant IV in the defined standard of quality, cost, safety, and sustainability.

Job Context & Major Challenges

Job Context:

Controlling tow percentage is lesser than the required percentage, it would result in a loss of good fiber; whereas if the percentage is greater, the slivers would be left with a lot of impurities. So, controlling it is a daily challenge.
To get good sliver we need to reject slivers with greater or lesser than the allowable weight and send them to back to the beginning process. This is time consuming.
Keeping the count variation under control and achieving other qualities like uniformity, strength, etc.
