As a Sheeter Operator, you are the critical link between raw paper rolls and the high-precision printing process.

Responsibilities:

  • Machine Operation: Set up, calibrate, and operate high-speed sheeting equipment to convert paperboard rolls into precise sheets.
  • Quality Control: Constantly monitor sheet dimensions, squareness, and surface quality to prevent defects (e.g., dust, slitting errors, or scuffing).
  • Setup & Changeover: Review job tickets to determine specifications (size, weight, grain direction) and perform efficient make-ready transitions between different jobs.
  • Maintenance: Perform routine cleaning and basic preventative maintenance on knives, rollers, and belts to ensure optimal machine performance.
  • Material Handling: Operate forklifts or roll-clamping equipment to load heavy rolls onto the unwind stands.
  • Troubleshooting: Identify and resolve mechanical issues or paper-run jams to minimize downtime.

Qualifications

Technical Aptitude: Experience with industrial machinery (preferably sheeters like Marquip, Goodstrong or Maxson) is a major plus.

Mathematical Precision: Ability to read a tape measure to 1/32 and perform basic calculations for sheet counts and waste percentages.

Physical Stamina: Ability to stand for long shifts, lift up to 50 lbs, and work in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

Detail Oriented: A "sharp eye" for catching small defects that could cause issues later in the printing or die-cutting stages.

Safety First: Strict adherence to Lock-Out/Tag-Out (LOTO) procedures and PPE
