Start up, stabilize, operate, and shut down co-extrusion lines
Balance A/B/C layer ratios and extruder outputs
Adjust temperatures, screw speeds, nip speeds, and cooling
Control bubbles, BUR, frost lines, layflat, and air rings
Troubleshoot gauge variation, wrinkles, winding, and instability
Requirements:
Minimum five years operating three-layer blown film lines
Independent startup and stabilization experience
Strong A/B/C layer-ratio control understanding

Experience with HDPE blown film strongly preferred
Ability to lift 60 pounds regularly and work safely
Apply your co-extrusion, bubble-control, and gauge-management expertise to produce consistent film while minimizing scrap and downtime.
