First Element: Takt Time

Standardized Work lv1

Sets the pace of production based on customer demand


Daily work time: Three 8 hour shifts = 24 hrs Per shifts: Two 10 min. break One 20 min. lunch Available production time = 79200 sec Customer demand = 18000 per week 5 day work week Daily demand = 1/5 of 18000 18000/5 = 3600

Scientific Problem Solving

What Is Scientific Problem Solving?

Problem Solving lv1

1. Make an observation 2. Make a prediction (postula)


Galileo

3. Make a test (one variable at one time) 4. Prove or disprove prediction 5. Make rule or law
Pasteur

Problem Solving (Before)


Problem Solving lv1

Problems Come Vague


Click for Video Conveyor #4 Vague Problem (full speed video) - Syringes fall through the track - Then get caught in the conveyor and stop the line often - It takes time to restart the machine

Tape

Solution - Place tape at the bottom of the rack - Replace the tape often - Partial (.2) operator is permanently dedicated to the failure

Line 50

Results - Rate of operation = 20% - Or 0% since 8 full time people are dedicated to run the machines (enough people to make all the syringes manually) 17 - Safety inventory before and after machine

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

1. Find the point of cause (break the problem down)


1.1 Grasp initial condition, in detail, through deep observation
Conveyor #4 How big is the problem? - Mean time to failure 2-3 minutes - Down time per failure 11 min.

Large Vague Problem


Problem investigation

Go See

Where and when is the problem happening? At the top of the track? In the middle of the track? At the bottom of the track?

Point of Cause
Point or location where the event occur and result in abnormal condition

How is the problem happening? Is the syringe rotating when falling? Or just falling through a gap? 18

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

1. Find the point of cause


1.1 Can you see, touch, hear, smell, taste the problem?

Large Vague Problem


Problem investigation

Go See

Point of Cause
At entrance of track syringe is rotating left And then falls though the track

We find the point of cause to be at the gap between the 2 tracks This is where the syringe starts to rotate

19

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

2. Find the root cause


2.1 Make hypothesis
2.1.1 The material is defective? Is there variation in the width of the syringe? Why Why Why Why Why Root Cause
5 Why Cause and effect relationship

Cause investigation

2.1.2 Machine is not set correctly? The track is too wide and the syringe falls in between the tracks.

Are both rails at the same height at the track transition point? 20

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

2. Find the root cause


2.1 Verify material defect

Flange width = xx.xx

diagonal body width = 16.9 mm

Body width = 16.9 mm

All part dimensions are equal to specification


21

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

2. Find the root cause


2.1 Verify track width

Compared machine design drawing to actual track width. However, there was no machine design available

BUT

1. 2. 3. 4.

The width of the track is greater than the body of the syringe Therefore, the body of the syringe can flow between the track Also, the flange are wider than the width of the track Therefore, the flange are supported by the track

There doesnt seem to be a problem with track width unless there is a forced rotation on the syringe. There should be no need for a test at this time (although the width of the track was modified)

22

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

2. Find the root cause


2.1 Verify track height

This left track is 1mm lower than the right track

This is where the syringe starts to rotate Why?

We need to make a test to confirm if the height difference is a potential cause of the syringe twisting.

23

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

2. Find the root cause


2.2 Test and confirm the height of the left track

Before the test

After the test

The assumption is that the track height difference cause the syringe to rotate and fall between the rail at a rate of 1 every 2-3 min.

After aligning the rail height there was no syringe rotation during the observation time (11am to 24 3:00pm). One month later the there is still no syringe rotation

Scientific Problem Solving (After)


Problem Solving lv1

2. Find the root cause


2.2 Five Why to implement permanent solution / countermeasure
Point of cause

Why
Cause investigation

The right flange of the syringe hits the right rail while the other doesnt causing a twist Because the 2 rails are not at the same height

Why Why
Because the machine is not fixed to the floor and can move when hit

Why
Because there is no understanding of the importance of machine standard setting

Why
There is not standard for machine setup and standardized maintenance procedure

Root Cause

Picture of standard for machine setup

Picture of machine fixed to the floor

Picture of standardized work for machine maintenance
