Role summary

RRD is seeking a Press Operator 1 (Sheeter Operator) to join their packaging production team. This role is responsible for operating high-speed sheeting equipment to convert paperboard rolls into precise sheets, ensuring quality and efficiency. Key responsibilities include machine setup, calibration, quality control monitoring, routine maintenance, material handling, and troubleshooting mechanical issues. The ideal candidate will have technical aptitude with industrial machinery, strong measurement and calculation skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to safety procedures like LOTO. Physical stamina for standing, lifting, and working in a fast-paced environment is required.

As a Sheeter Operator, you are the critical link between raw paper rolls and the high- precision printing process. You’ll be responsible for transforming massive rolls of paperboard into perfectly sized, flat sheets, ensuring the highest standards of quality and efficiency for our packaging production.

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.

* 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

All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines.
