PRIMARY FUNCTION:
To help/operate high speed stranding equipment to produce specified kinds of stranded cable on specified packages. Must also sign off as High speed strander operator after successful training of the helper training sheet.
Tools/Equipment/ Responsibilities
Help/operate the high speed strander with metering equipment, take up capstans, take up winding unit and payoff unit; portable welder unit, grease and blasting cabinets where applicable, using overhead cranes/loaders, various size wooden or steel reels, various size closing blocks and dies, micrometers, portable power back saw, strong adhesive tape, bolt cutters, pneumatic nail guns, fork truck, and miscellaneous small hand tools.
Must be willing to work on a fast paced, highly focused machine that will have constant attention given to safety, quality, speed, and scrap.
Will operate as the helper mainly, while on occasion act as the operator in case of call off or other circumstance that deems it necessary. This person will be part of a 2-person team on the machine and will be expected to receive machine responsibility direction from both operator and supervisor to keep flow of machine running at maximum level.
Material Handled
Various sizes and shapes of aluminum wire, aluminum alloy, aluminum wire on steel bobbins, steel or aluminum cable on steel or wooden reels, and greases and oxide inhibitors.
Source of Supervision
Receives direction from the Stranding Supervisor
OCCASIONAL WORK REQUIREMENTS
Each day sweep entire work area and return tools and other materials to the proper storage areas. Aid maintenance personnel with repairs to strander or auxiliary equipment.

SAFETY RULES
When loading bobbins or reels, pay special attention to the procedure used to load to avoid any back injuries.
Always be aware of forklifts and make sure the driver knows where you are.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS:
Demand for the product run on the high speed strander is elevated and in order for Southwire to meet customer demand, the machine must run consistently. The process is technical and requires trained individuals to perform the job independently. Because of this, it is not always possible that such an individual will be available to replace an absent operator. Therefore, predictable and consistent attendance is required due to the nature of the job.
Southwire is an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
