Summary of Projects Project 1: Implementation of a pilot manufacturing cell. Goal : Reduce the number of weld/grind/inspect loops.
Project 2: Implementation of Visual Communication board between weld upgrade and inspection. Goal: Reduce WIP (work in process) by improving the storage, inventory control and tracking of active orders. Project 3: Exploit the constraint. Goal: Increase capacity at the constraint.

Why Create a Manufacturing Cell? Casting Moves and Operational Frequencies for Grind, Weld, Inspection Loop Number of Times Casting is Moved= 270 Moves between Weld Upgrade and Inspection = 95
20% of Moves are between Weld, Grind and Inspection
Moves Between Weld, Grind, Inspection = 55 Pareto Chart of Operation Performed 80 70 60
Can We Combine The Grind, Weld & Inspection Operations? YES!!!!!!

Problems with Layout Wall Separating Work Centers Electric/ Air/Gas lines need to be moved Can only work from 1 side of welding table Need to keep welding/grinding dust separate Excess Welding Equipment Lack of Storage Space

To Inspection 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Changes Made to Layout Breakdown Wall and install extra tall movable welding curtain. Move Gas/Air/Electric Lines to support future layouts. Cut welding tables in half place in center of work area. Remove excess welding equipment. Install equipment needed to perform grinding, welding and magnetic particle inspection operations without moving part.

To Weld Upgrade
To Inspection Future Improvements 1. Install Roller system to facilitate worker movement of castings within cell. 2. Establish alternative transportation for parts entering and exiting cell. (Tracks in Floor, motorized pallet jack) 3. Ergonomically friendly work tables. (Able to elevate and rotate)

Project 2: Implementation of Visual Communication board between weld upgrade and inspection. Goal : Reduce WIP (work in process) by improving the storage, inventory control and tracking of active orders.

How the Visual Communication Board Works‐
Magnetic Particle
Dye Penetrate
Dimensional Analysis
Red
Yellow
Green
= 3” x 5” Magnets Move on and off board as castings move from work center to work center 15
Visual Communication Board In Use‐ Still a Work in Progress….
Buffer
Rope
Drum 16
Why Use a Visual Communication Board? Goals of Visual Communication Board: •Facilitate communication between Weld Upgrade and Inspection. •Gives Foreman the ability to have castings “jump to the front of the line” for expatiated orders. •Track casting movements in and out of work centers. •Buffers used as visual queues to establish shop floor space discipline. •Limit the amount of work entering inspection.

Benefits From Three Projects‐ Visual Communication Board Visual Communication Boards‐ 1. Establish drum‐buffer‐rope control between the weld upgrade and inspection. 2. Provides a visual signal to the employees that work can be released into the shop, or parts can be staged as work stations become available. 3. Increase Line Of Sight between work centers by 50%. 4. Ability to track castings progress in real time. 5. Ability to track castings shipped on a weekly basis. 6. Ability to stage work and establish casting precedence as emergent work is revealed. 27
Benefits From Three Projects‐ Exploit Constraint Exploit Constraint‐ 1. Ability to gain 42% capacity at bottle neck by redefining Job Roles to do work in parallel. 2. Possible 142% increase in capacity if additional Inspection equipment is purchased.
