Annealing Metal in a Jewelry Studio

Work hardening and annealing are two words you'll quickly learn when beginning metalsmithing. Metal hardens when you work with it and will eventually become so brittle it will crack the metal, destroying what you were working on. To soften the metal before it reaches that point, you need to anneal it.

 This study was developed at a company in the jewelry industry, more specifically in the area of production control. The objective was that of analyzing and improving both the management process, as well as production control. By adopting tools from the Lean Thinking philosophy and a beta version of MES software (manufacturing-execution-system), the company was able to implement new strategies with a view to minimizing waste and ensuring continuous improvement, thus contributing to greater customer satisfaction. By resorting to these tools, one saw marked improvements in the process studied, namely: better productive organization; workers endowed with good organizational practices, and a more thorough control of the entire production process.
