The Analysis Of Capacity Increase Of Steering Column Production Line

We did analysis for capacity and management of steering columnproduction line. We have introduced the current capacity of production lineof steering column and the manufacturing method of upper column. Also, wehave introduced factors for production capacity and KPIs of evaluation.During the analysis process, we have used6sigma tools. These tools haveincreased our efficiency of quality problem analysis. With the help from that,we have found out root cause and reduced scrap rate efficiently. Throughthe project, we did successful communication with operators. We let themknow why we need to do this capacity increase. So that they can understandthe project and give fully support for this activity. We also used SMED toolsto reduce changeover time to reach final target. During whole project, wehave defined several teams to deal with different factors for OEE. The teamsused efficient tools to analyze indicators for OEE. Each team focused onone item and did deep analysis. A lot of actions were taken to improve ourfinal performance.
