Picking on a cosmetics carton

The note is for the next shift

Writing only "there is picking" is useless. The edge of the solid picks paper fiber and shows a white edge. You also need the location. If a cosmetics carton hits the brand mark or a brand-color solid, the note has to say whether you stopped or passed it.

What to write down

Item What it's for If you leave it out
Record the paper lot, the viscosity and the impression. Match it to the roller, the blade or the material Next time you guess from scratch
Metre count or sheet number Find this spot again The complaint won't match
Whether it hit the brand mark or a brand-color solid Decide whether to pass or stop You only keep a nice picture

Hand this to the next shift

  1. Record the paper lot, the viscosity and the impression.
  2. Write whether it landed on the brand mark or a brand-color solid.
  3. Use the name on the name list. Don't invent another word.
