Abstract: The two major challenges that industries are facing today are continuous improvement in productivity and quality
of the product. Bosch Production System (BPS) is one of the leading manufacturers in Diesel system equipment’s. Fuel
Injector is main product of Bosch India Nashik. This plant produce around 10,000 injector per day. They are having mass
production, it may happen that in such mass production their might be some part with operation missing. Such operation
missing parts contribute a lot in defect cost. There are two holes in injector body inlet hole and leak off hole with dia. 2.2 mm
and 1.43 mm. This holes are gun-drilled into the forged body. Many times it is observed that drilling operation is half done,
there might be many root causes like drill breakage, drill blunt, interruption in machine due to coolant level low etc. there was
need of finding dominant root cause and eliminate it. Bosch Production System (BPS) - one of the leading manufacturers in
Diesel system equipment’s, has been successfully employing the efficient statistical tool ‘Shainin’ for the root cause
identification and Design of Experiments (DOE) techniques for analysis and optimization of the quality related issues. Shainin
is popular being a simplest and effective tool to employ in solving the manufacturing related problems. So it was decided to
go with Shainin and find the dominant root cause. Shainin® system could be effectively used for solving the problems with
the theory that “there is a dominant cause of variation in the process output that defines the problem” and it is analogous to
Pareto principle of ‘vital few and trivial many’ or ‘20/80 principle’. The categorization of the problem done in order to choose
the best effective techniques such as Component search, Paired comparison, Concentration chart, Strategy diagram etc.
Classification of the problem that is GreenY (as termed in Shainin® system) is done as Property, Profile, Defect or Event.
Event subcategorized as destructive or malfunction event.

Keywords: Shainin® Methodology, Root Cause Analysis (RCA), RedX.

1. INTRODUCTION

Main product of Bosch at Nashik is Common rail


injector. The body is the biggest part of the assembled
Common Rail Injector (CRI). It has to resist high
pressures up to 2,000 bar. Moreover there is a zero Fig.1. Injector mounting in Engine

We have categorized the problem definition into


four different ways i.e. defect, event, feature and
property. According to it problem is a defect.

2.2 Approach

The effective utilization of the statistical tool and


quickness of the root cause identification relays on the
selection of samples with two extreme characteristics,
that is WOW (worst of worst) and BOB (best of best).
The type of problems that is tackled is apparently
limited to variation problems. The generic form of
2

problems is a certain quality characteristic (which can


be a variable or an event) has a probability distribution
which does not meet the demands. Here the sample
which gives value close to mean is BOB and which is
towards either of the extremes is WOW.
To implement the process of elimination, SS uses
families of (causes of) variation and these families of
variation are created by Defect Strategy Approach. A
family of variation is a group of varying process inputs
that act at the same location or in the same time span.
Common families include within-part, part-to-part
(consecutive), time-to-time, location-to-location and
machine-to-machine.
Table 1: Family Variation

Primary step during converge process is to recheck


the measurement system based on which problem has
been formulated.

At any point in the search, the idea is to divide the


inputs remaining as possible dominant causes into
mutually exclusive families, and then to carry out an
investigation that will eliminate all but one family as
the home of the dominant cause.

eliminate potential root cause in measurement. If we
look towards approach, there is large contrast in Time

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

All the process parameters and machine
parameters were checked and machine was run. It was
seen that If there is no interruption no operation
missing parts are produced.

CONCLUSIONS

Following conclusions have been drawn from the


experimental result and discussions.
1. Three RED X were found i.e. coolant level
low, tool broken and tool blunt
