Occupations | Operates mill equipped with rollers to grind paste of premixed ingredients, such as pigments, resins, solvents, oils, and plasticizers, for use in paint, lacquer, and ink: Moves controls to set specified roll spacing and pressure. Starts flow of water through roll cooling system to prevent ignition or discoloration of paste. Adjusts feed gate to regulate flow of paste from hopper onto feeder roll. Secures scraper blade to takeoff roll and bolts chute to scraper blade, allowing paste to flow from roll into thinning and storage tanks or scrapes paste from mill apron into container, using spatula. Tests paste sample for fineness, using grind gauge, or sends sample to laboratory for analysis. Adjusts roll pressure controls to regulate flow of paste during grinding. Cleans equipment, using scrapers and solvents. May pump specified types and quantities of thinners into thinning tank. May blend specified extenders (chemicals that increase bulk of paint) with paste, using portable mixer. (references) |
| Operates bank of roll grinders to grind grain into meal or flour: Opens and closes slides in spouts to route grain to various grinders and sifters. Turns wheels to adjust pressure of grinding rollers for each break (passage of grain between rollers), according to grain size and hardness, and adjusts feed chutes to regulate flow of grain to rollers. Inspects product and sifts out chaff to determine percentage of yield. Adjusts rollers to maintain maximum yield. Replaces worn grinding rollers, using handtools. May sift and bolt meal or flour. May clean and temper grain prior to grinding. May direct workers who drain and temper grain and bolt meal or flour. May be designated according to grain milled as Corn Miller (grain-feed mills). May operate burr mills instead of roll grinders to grind grain and be designated Burr-Mill Operator (grain-feed mills). (references) | |
