    Optimization of Shear Testing
    (Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2024) Acevedo Liceaga, Wilfredo; González Miranda, Carlos J.
    This research project focused on improving shear testing processes. This project aims to implement a new system that performs shear testing without destroying the piece, thus reducing the scrap percentage. The DMAIC methodology was used to enhance the shear testing process. DMAIC is a concept that measures defects in business processes and improves profitability. DMAIC stands for the process's five main steps: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control. This research seeks to improve the measurement process of shear tests. This is important for the process because it will reduce scrap, decrease the error percentage when measuring shear in each piece that undergoes welding processes, and provide a more accurate value, thus improving quality. The DMAIC methodology provides a structure and tools to enhance a process by optimizing and stabilizing the business process. In this case, it would involve eliminating destructive tests and reducing scrap percentage due to shear tests. Key Terms — Optimization, Residential Breakers; Shear Test; Welding Process.
