Understand and Correct the Weight Variability in Cases

Abstract

Process variation in all manufacturing processes will reflect a manufacturing production losses since these variations reflect process waste. Understand process variations and process capabilities is a key factor when a product is built at the production area. This project will focus to understand the process variations of an operation that have actually a total of 46.8% of cases out of weight. This percentage represent a rework operation in this process. At the end of the project, recommendations and conclusion were found and also all actions that were taken that contributes for a result of 47% of reduction in the rework area. Also, it will be understanding the contributions factors for the variability Key Terms – Cases, Continuous Improvement, Lean, Process Variability, Six Sigma.
