What 化粧品製造 do

An English description is being prepared. Japanese description:

化粧水、ファンデーション、口紅など各種の化粧品を製造する。
 製造部門では、水、パラフィン、各種薬品、色素、香料などの原料を決められた処方に従って配合し、加熱・溶解させ、混ぜ合わせて化粧品を作り、貯蔵する。そして、化粧品を検査用サンプルとして少量取り出し、目視や機器で測定して検査する。
 充填(じゅうてん)・仕上げ部門では、ベルトコンベアーによって運ばれた容器に、タンクやパイプを通じて送られた化粧品が正確に充填されるように監視し、不良品があれば抜き取る。メイク品などは成形機で成形し、色調、硬度などを検査する。その後、ふたを締め、ラベルを貼り、ケースに入れ、使用説明書などを同封する。機械にトラブルが起きたときは、原因を速やかに究明し、機械を調整する。
 製造から充填・仕上げ工程までを一貫した完全自動生産ラインで行っているメーカーもあるが、自動と手動を組み合わせた半自動生産ラインで製造している場合もある。
