Original job description

Job Title: Single Facer Operator

Department: Corrugator

Reports to: Supervisor Lead

Location: Corrugator Deparement

Position Summary: The Single Facer Operator is responsible for operating the single facer section of the corrugator, where the medium (fluting paper) is heated, formed into the corrugated profile, and bonded to the inner liner to produce single-face web. The quality of the corrugated flute - cell height, flute formation, glue bond, and moisture content - is established at this station and directly determines the strength and performance of the finished board. The Single Facer Operator works in close coordination with the Double Backer Operator and Corrugator Operator (Control Room Operator) to maintain a continuous, stable web with minimal waste and downtime.

Compensation:

The actual base pay offered to the successful candidate will be based on multiple factors, including but not limited to job-related knowledge/skills, experience, geographical location, and internal equity. At ND Paper, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at the high end of the range for their role, and compensation decisions are dependent upon the facts and circumstances of each position and candidate.

About Us

ND Paper is a leading manufacturer of high-quality pulp, paper, and packaging products in the United States, generating over half a billion dollars in annual sales. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Nine Dragons Paper (Holdings) Limited – the largest containerboard producer in the world – ND Paper is part of a global network committed to excellence and innovation. With two integrated pulp and paper mills in Rumford, Maine and Biron, Wisconsin, a packaging plant in Sturtevant, Wisconsin, and two sheeting facilities in Langhorne, Pennsylvania and Fairmont, West Virginia, the ND Paper family produces nearly one million tons of products annually. Our 1,100 dedicated employees are the heart of our operations, and we are committed to fostering positive work environments where individuals can advance and thrive. At ND Paper, we are investing in our future, and that starts with our staff.

Key Responsibilities & Expected Results:

Demonstrate safety as a core value and establish a safe work environment by actively leading the safe execution of work.

Equipment Operation

Set up, operate, and monitor the single facer including the corrugating rolls, pressure roll, and preheater drums
Adjust corrugating roll gap, nip pressure, and wrap angles on preheat drums per grade specifications
Monitor and control medium and liner preheat temperatures to achieve proper plasticity before fluting
Maintain belt tension, tracking, and speed synchronization with the double backer section
Respond promptly to web breaks, misfeeds, or flute formation anomalies to minimize downtime and waste

Flute Quality & Bond

Inspect single-face web continuously for flute height, flute formation consistency, and bond integrity
Identify and correct washboarding, rib marking, flute crushing, and poor glue penetration
Verify flute profile matches the run specification (A, B, C, E, F, or combination flutes)
Adjust preheater wrap and corrugating roll temperature in response to medium moisture variation
Communicate web quality issues to the Double Backer Operator and CR Operator in real time

Glue System - Single Facer

Monitor single facer glue temperature, viscosity, and application roll gap continuously
Adjust glue gap and roll speed to achieve proper glue bead on flute tips without over-application
Perform routine glue system cleaning during breaks, roll changes, and order changeovers
Report abnormal glue consumption, viscosity drift, foam, or starch buildup to Control Room Operator/Lead Supervisor

Paper Splices & Roll Changes

Perform flying splices on medium and inner liner rolls to maintain continuous web flow
Stage incoming rolls, inspect for defects (out-of-round, telescoped, wet), and flag non-conforming material
Coordinate splice timing with Control Room Operator to minimize trim waste and production interruption
Log all splice events and roll changes, noting paper lot, roll ID, and any quality concerns

Order Changeovers

Execute medium and liner changes for flute profile or paper weight transitions per the run schedule
Adjust corrugating roll temperature, preheat, and glue settings for each new specification
Minimize waste board at changeover through proactive adjustment and communication with the crew
Confirm run card specifications (flute, basis weight, liner grade) before each new order

Safety & Housekeeping

Follow all lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures before clearing jams or performing any maintenance
Never reach into the corrugating nip or pressure roll area while the machine is in motion
Maintain a clean work area around the single facer, splice table, and paper roll storage zone
Identify and report unsafe conditions, near-misses, and equipment abnormalities immediately
Wear required PPE at all times: safety glasses, ear protection, heat-resistant gloves where applicable
Comply with all plant safety policies and actively participate in safety meetings

Preventive Maintenance Support

Perform operator-level Preventative Maintenance tasks per the single facer Preventative Maintenance schedule (roll inspections, bearing checks, lubrication)
Monitor corrugating roll condition - report tip wear, scoring, or heat distribution issues
Report equipment wear, unusual vibration, or thermal inconsistency through the downtime log or verbal escalation
Assist maintenance technicians during corrugating roll changes and scheduled downtime

Reporting & Communication

Log all downtime events at the single facer (cause, duration, corrective action) on the downtime tracking sheet
Complete beginning-of-shift and end-of-shift equipment checks per the operator checkout sheet
Communicate all in-progress quality and equipment issues clearly during shift handoffs
Report paper quality discrepancies (moisture, caliper, basis weight variation) to supervisor for supplier follow-up

Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s)

Performance in this role is evaluated against the following metrics:

Single-face web quality - flute formation defects, bond failures, and wash boarding incidents trended over time
Splice success rate - ratio of clean flying splices to total splice attempts
Waste generated at single facer section - compared to plant average and trended over time
Corrugator uptime contribution - downtime events attributable to single facer section
Safety compliance - zero LOTO violations; active participation in near-miss reporting
Preventative Maintenance completion rate - operator-level Preventative Maintenance completed on schedule

Role in the Corrugator Crew

Role Interface with Single Facer Operator

CR Operator (Lead) Sets overall corrugator speed; coordinates order changes and splice timing; primary escalation point

Double Backer Operator Receives single-face web; communicates board quality feedback upstream in real time

Dry End Crew Downstream quality issues (warp, delamination) often trace to single facer - collaboration on root cause

Shift Supervisor Reports downtime, safety issues, and paper quality discrepancies

Maintenance Coordinates corrugating roll changes, steam system work, and glue system maintenance

High school diploma or GED
Minimum 1–2 years of experience operating equipment in a manufacturing or paper/converting environment
