  • As a band member, I review computerized run cards for a particular code prior to checking the machine setup. I then verify that each component used is correct, and I fill out the appropriate check sheet. After that, I proceed to build the first band and carcass, checking for any out-of-spec conditions in the process on the tire machine.
  • As a belt man, I also review the run card, set up and fill out the check sheet for the other side of the machine. I then proceed to build the belt tread package, checking for any out-of-spec conditions. The belt man or band man will perform a visual inspection of the completed green tire, checking for any out-of-spec conditions, and venting the tire of any visible signs of air.
  • I also have to change stock as the rolls run out, and load full ones into the machine.
