Workstation Design

Selection of Machinists and Other Operators

Training

OEE based maintenance - TPM


Machine Shop Processes Industrial Engineering

Process charting for parts made - Operation Process Chart - Flow Process Chart - Operation Information Sheets

Periodic process chart analysis - Operation Analysis

Determination of Optimal Cutting Parameters.

Management of Productivity Improvement by Shop Operations Team


Regarding machine oriented work improvement.  

OEE accepted as a metric and now we are going ahead with a pilot area of three horizontal milling machines.

Once we get a good baseline of where all machines stand, I aim to run a DOE to have optimal process parameters.

Focusing on production operation,  Would you recommend any more specific strategies/tools to deal with the machine oriented manufacturing?

Machine Shop Industrial Engineering - An Agenda for 2022 by DR. SHAHRUKH A. IRANI, LEAN & FLEXIBLE LLC


Check part routings - correct errors. Revise misfit operations.

Identify the additional transport due to current layout.

Make small changes to the layout.

Make radical changes to the layout.

Purchase FMC (flexible manufacturing cell) to do lightout manufacturing in the night shift.

Ensure JIT Material Handling and Logistics for cells

Implement phased automation

Rationalize product mix and reject unprofitable parts.

Make efforts to expand parts that are profitable and done in cells in flow method.

Industrial Engineering Strategy for Machine Shop.

Strategic decisions related to industrial engineering function?


1. What is your productivity/Efficiency Improvement - Cost Reduction goal?

2. Are you planning to realize experience curve effect benefits?

3. How much of the cost reduction - productivity improvement should come from specialist industrial engineers and other engineers and managers?

4. What will be the ratio of industrial engineers to other engineers and managers?

5. What bottlenecks or limiting factors have you identified in the machine shop?

6. What techniques are going to receive special emphasis?

7. What is your training plan for specialist industrial engineers and other engineers and managers?

8. What is the top management attention to industrial engineering - productivity improvement - cost reduction activity? - Planning and Review Meetings

9. What is the research and development budget for IE activity?

10. What is the total budget for productivity improvement? What is the budget for productivity projects to be initiated by industrial engineering department? What is the budget for productivity projects to be initiated by operating departments?
