This Class is Suitable for

This class is targeted toward the technical person responsible for most any type of winding machines or wound roll product. However, many other positions can also benefit such as lead operators, foreman, managers, mechanical and electrical maintenance, Q/A and customer service. The only prerequisite is a bit of technical aptitude and enough job experience to be familiar with the names for the: parts of your machines, basic functions and common web/roll defects. However, it would be helpful to have the Web Handling and Converting class first as this course builds on that material.
