lidder

A worker on an assembly line responsible for putting on lids.

For instance, a comparison of the first three lines of Table 18 reveals that for local lidders the lowest time requirement was with the use of a nail dispenser, but without the use of a box-lid clamp (line 3).

It may also force a sharper division of labour between sorters, packers and lidders

A machine that puts on lids.

The lidder is portable, light in weight and easy to wheel around the field.

Another recent improvement to this lidder is an adjustable hitch allowing the lidder to be hauled through the vineyards behind flat bed trucks on which loads of packed and lidded boxes are palletized for hauling to shipping points.
