Carbon setter: Crust breaking all anodes on the daily carbon set schedule, sting out newly made anodes, pull the 21 day old anodes and replace with new, pick up all pulled anodes and clean loose bath off, cover all newly set anodes and dress accrordingly to avdit expectations.

Housekeeping of the carbon set section jack arms on 4 scheduled pots per 12 hr shift.

Operated loaders to cleanup, pallet trucks to bring new anodes after work completed.

cut in new pots, cut out old pots with high iron, multiple burn-offs/sickpots.

ored up 64 pots per 12 hour shift with charging buckets of alumina.

Carbon crane; ore up entire room with change buckets, run crust breaker for carbon setters to break out anodes, pull old anodes and replace with new on certain set mark, pick up old anodes and put on a pallet sitting flat and straight.

Pick up setters to cover newly set anodes.

Sit a jaching frame on 4 pots scheduled to jack.

Cut in new pots, cut out old.

Burnoffs/resets, etc.

Cruce truck; hauled molten aluminum from potlines to casting or remelt, and hauled dirty/heavy cruces to be cleaned.

Tool repairman; changed feeders in pots, cleaned heavy cruces, reassembled them back together and put back in service.

Repaired air guns, air hoses, etc.

Pot operators; Microflex/meter pots, bath measurements, temps, bath tap, manage anode effects, maintain bake pots, pour bath/metal into new pots.

Rodding relief operator/electrode department.

Hookup operator; push spent anodes onto a lift table with a pusher off of a pallet, lift and hang onto a trolley with a shadele and make sure green anodes are being loaded properly, and keep the crushed bath belt conveyor in operation.

Central butts operator; jach hammer all bath off of spent anodes and send through beater chains to remove all debris.

Manual Bath; remove all debris central butts did not to ensure all bath is removed from the bottoms of the anodes.

Maintain hydraulic levels, impacter, and several conveyor belts.

Strip the cast iron and carbon from copper rods.

North wheelabrator operator; ensure that green block consistently come from bake furnace make sure all rods are being cleaned on all sides and reject

bad rods, take down bad rods and hang new.

Pourer; Pour 2800 degree cast iron from cruce into mated blocks and rods.

Roughly 100 to 130 blocksper pour, 6 pours per day.

Blowoff operator; Ensure that anodes are poured correctly, set marks are on rods and blow off all carbon dust, debris, and any spilled cast iron to help current efficiency in the potlines.

Induction furance oprator; tap out furnace into cruce to start a pour, recharge furnace with roughly 3200 lbs of reclaimed cast iron or pig iron after adding alloys, including silicon, manganese, graphite, and phosphorous.

After initial charge is melted, skim out all slag, and then add your backcharge, around 1200lbs. keep up with pourers to ensure production stays going. patch bad spots in liners, sinter furnaces, bake out liners, etc.

Pallet truck operator; bring good pallets to hookup operator to process, and take out freshly poured anodes on pallets back to potlines. take rejected pallets to potlines to be fixed. ensure they are 275 degree or lower to process

rodding fork truck operator;unload good rods from JBM and reload bad rods for repair. load dust bags onto flat bed, dump hoppers, dump pans, empty dust collectors, haul green blocks, etc.
