Productivity Engineering Using Alternative Lubricants

Process Improvement - Productivity Analysis and Productivity Engineering.

Industrial engineer analyzes each process into its ultimate, simple elements, and compares each of these simplest steps or processes with an ideal or perfect condition and modifies the element appropriately. - F.W. Taylor - Hugo Diemer.

Productivity Engineering Principle of Industrial Engineering.

Industrial engineering is concerned with redesign of engineering systems with a view to improve their productivity.

https://nraoiekc.blogspot.com/2017/06/productivity-engineering-principle-of.html

Industrial engineer has to analyze each and every input that goes into an operation and examine its productivity aspect. Lubricant is an input into various machines and it has productivity and cost implications.

Lubricant Consolidation and Optimization: Which Lubes Stay and Which Lubes Go?

Paul Farless, Noria Corporation

https://www.machinerylubrication.com/Read/32180/lubricant-consolidation-and-optimization-which-lubes-stay-and-which-lubes-go?

Lubricant consolidation is the practice of selecting lubricants, stocking only what is necessary for optimal machinery performance on-site. 

Survey every lubricated machine and component in the entire facility and identify the lubricants that are in use. Collect pertinent data from each machine; say for electric motors,  HP, speed, frame size and other operational and environmental data. 

Next, collect the name, make and type of every lubricant in the lube room, as well as any other lubricants in the plant. 

Study each machine and component to outfit it with hardware, recommended lubricant, sampling, inspections, etc.

Consider all of the collected information and come to a recommendation for all of the greased components and all of the oiled components.

A new recommended list lubricants having current lubricants in use and available lubricants on market is made. Recommend lubricants based on a codified approach called a Lubricant Identification System (LIS) Code which is brand neutral. 

Once the recommendations are formulated, they are sent to the facility for approval by the stakeholders involved. Explanations are provided, and a review is done for this approval process. Once the lubricants are approved, new lubrication instructions are prepared.

Properly dispose of all the lubricants that are not in use. This has two benefits: it opens up space in the lube room for current and recommended lubricants and ensures that the incorrect lubricants randomly found throughout the plant are not accidentally used.

The Final Step: Optimization

It is time to optimize the lubricants that are on-site. “Consolidation” isn’t necessarily the right word to use. Instead, “optimization” is much more accurate. You now have the correct lubricants on-site. The result of the procedure is an optimized selection of lubricants, ensuring the right lubricant is selected for each machine.

We optimize a lube list by assigning specific greases and oils based on the machine data and operational and environmental parameters. This could mean that now the facility only utilizes four greases instead of eight greases; one for high-speed, one for low-speed, one for couplings and one for electric motors, for example. However, that is not always the case. Some lubricants fit the viscosity and additive parameters for multiple machine types, but some lubricants will only meet the parameters of one specific machine. The consolidate and optimize procedure of lubricants is  to extend machinery life and optimize machinery performance.

High-performance perflouropolyether (PFPE) lubricants are inert, water- and oil-repellant, solvent-resistant, non-flammable, non-toxic. They are  compatible with most common elastomers, plastics and metals. PFPE lubricants maintain their performance under extreme temperatures, extreme pressure and exposure to harsh chemicals.

Hydrocarbon or silicone-based lubricants are used  relube components on a daily or  weekly. With PFPEs, that need to relube is greatly reduced and the personnel doing that activity can be deployed in  other tasks.  The wear of components come down due to better lubrication property and the downtime caused by the frequent replacement of worn out components goes down. 

An example

One copper rod manufacturer was lubricating its roller bearings operating at temperatures of more than 200 degrees C (400 degrees F), every four hours with a synthetic hydrocarbon grease. The company executives believed that was the longest-lasting lubricant available. When they were approaches  by a supplier of  PFPE lubricants and were given information, they agreed to try the alternative solution. The  relubrication frequency was set to a monthly interval. They observed that montly interval relubrication work well and annual bearing failures reduced by nearly 98 percent. Only 4 bearings were replaced compared to 186 bearings per year earlier. The cost analysis showed a total annual savings of $66,920 due to  reduced maintenance costs, parts costs and production downtime.

Business Process Industrial Engineering - New Industrial Engineering Area

 

Development of computer engineering, software engineering, and information technology have led to development of the area of business process industrial engineering.

The article, "The New Industrial Engineering: Information Technology and Business Process Redesign" by  Thomas H Davenport, Professor, Department of Management Information, MIT School of Management in MIT SMR is the formal starting point of this area of industrial engineering. 

He wrote, "Our research also suggests that IT can also have a stronger role in business process redesign than that of useful tool. ... Thinking about information technology should be in terms of how it supports new or redesigned business processes, rather than business functions or other organizational entities. And thinking about business processes and process improvements should be in terms of the capabilities information technology can provide. We refer to this broadened, recursive view of IT and BPR  as the new industrial engineering."

Conradie, investigated the IE perspective of business intelligence for his PhD thesis.

An Industrial Engineering Perspective of Business Intelligence

University off Pretoria.  Conradie, P J ((2005)

https://repository.up.ac.za/bitstream/handle/2263/24755/Complete.pdf

Over the period of 1977 to 2022, I observed that many industrial engineering graduates have successfully become systems engineers and managers of IT systems. Compared to the migration of industrial engineering graduates toward manufacturing process design and systems design, the migration to IT systems and processes area is huge. Industrial engineering graduates and industrial engineers in response to the demand for system engineering specialists in IT area learned the new technology and successfully implemented many systems in leading companies of the world. The activity is still going on very successfully. Industrial engineers are embracing artificial intelligence and machine learning in a big way in the current years.

An Interesting Question.

Systems Efficiency Engineering - A Focus Area of Industrial Engineeering

Blog Post Publication Date: 6.6.2013

Published still earlier as Knol number 869.

Systems efficiency engineering is one of the focus areas of industrial engineering according to me. The other area of focus is human effort engineering.

Functional design of a system and efficiency design of system are different activities. In mechanical engineering, design of a mechanism and design of machine elements to implement the mechanism are different activities. A machine requires first a mechanism design and then machine element design. Then somebody has to do a process design to manufacture each element and then assemble them into an assembly. Similarly functional design of a system and efficiency design of a system are two different activities under division of labor.

Is efficiency engineering a new word that I am coining for the first time? No. Efficiency engineering was used in the past by many authors and thinkers. The new thing that I want to emphasize is the difference between functional engineering or design and efficiency engineering or design. Industrial engineering has focused on efficiency of systems.

Scientific Management, as it was called, involved the application of the scientific method to understand business problems and improve workplace efficiency. Previously, most managers lacked quantitative data and information and thus often relied on hunches and educated guessed to manage their business. By the early 1900’s, Scientific Management evolved into “efficiency engineering” with its main focus being optimization of a single process (i.e. point optimization), and then later “industrial engineering” whose focus expanded to system optimization – i.e. improvement of interrelated processes.

Is There a Difference Between Process Engineering and Industrial Engineering?

Process Engineering is also an established discipline with bachelors and masters degrees. Industrial engineering is also an established discipline. So there is a difference between them even though both deal with processes. Industrial engineering is more specific with its focus on productivity, efficiency and cost. Industrial engineering's involvement in process improvement is its productivity focus and productivity related improvements that give cost reduction and waste elimination.

Process engineering is the comprehensive engineering that brings a process into existence and effectiveness. A process designer has to first establish a process that gives the desired output from specified material inputs. Once a process is certified for effectiveness, many iterations of improvement are done on the process to improve it in various dimensions to make it a commercially feasible and profitable quality product. Many specialized engineering branches, specializing in dimensions of performance were created to help the process designers. For example industrial engineering, quality engineering and reliability engineering disciplines focus on specific dimensions of performance.

Process engineering is similar to industrial engineering; many job duties overlap with each other. However, industrial engineering focuses more on how to make general production processes more efficient.

Industrial Engineer Vs. Process Engineer

Sep 02, 2022

Comparing Industrial Engineers to Process Engineers

Industrial engineers and process engineers are both involved in producing items. Industrial engineers focus more on the manufacturing process while process engineers may consider product design improvements, changes to the materials used and revising the manufacturing process or technology used.

Responsibilities of Industrial Engineers vs. Process Engineers

The main objective of an industrial engineer is to make manufacturing more efficient. 

They look for ways to improve the manufacturing process so that companies can save money. Their work requires them to study a number of factors, such as schedules, the order of operations involved and types of equipment used so that they can determine ways to make modifications that will reduce the time and money needed to complete products. 

Process engineers are involved with all aspects of production. Their work can involve producing design plans for new products or modifying existing schematics to improve existing products. They look for ways to change the design, materials and method of production to correct malfunctions, improve performance and save money.

Process Engineering

Process engineering is the understanding and application of the fundamental principles and laws of nature that allow humans to transform raw material and energy into products that are useful to society, at an industrial level. 

By taking advantage of the driving forces of nature such as pressure, temperature and concentration gradients, as well as the law of conservation of mass, process engineers can develop methods to synthesize and purify large quantities of desired chemical products. Process engineering focuses on the design, operation, control, optimization and intensification of chemical, physical, and biological processes. Process engineering theory and methods are used in  a vast range of industries, such as agriculture, automotive, biotechnical, chemical, food, material development, mining, nuclear, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and software development.

Process Engineering Problem Solving: Avoiding "The Problem Went Away, but it Came Back" Syndrome
Joseph M. Bonem
John Wiley & Sons, 26-Sep-2008 - Technology & Engineering - 296 pages

Avoid wasting time and money on recurring plant process problems by applying the practical, five-step solution in Process Engineering Problem Solving: Avoiding "The Problem Went Away, but it Came Back" Syndrome. Combine cause and effect problem solving with the formulation of theoretically correct working hypotheses and find a structural and pragmatic way to solve real-world issues that tend to be chronic or that require an engineering analysis. Utilize the fundamentals of chemical engineering to develop technically correct working hypotheses that are key to successful problem solving.

Productivity Bibliography - 2021 to 2025

 Are You Benchmarking Productivity and Cost of Your New Processes ?

Many consultancy organizations are predicting productivity increases due to digital transformation of manufacturing and business processes.

Industrial engineers have an additional task now. They have to provide benchmarking information to aid the design of new processes in their organization. The benchmarking information has to be gathered at process level, operation level and element level. The information is to be used appropriately. Element level information is the most useful. Information at process level may or may not be available for the processes of an organization.

After a new process is designed, industrial engineers have to evaluate it from the productivity perspective and try to benchmark it once again as possible. The benchmarking exercise can provide the leads for improvement at the time of next productivity improvement study.

The coming productivity boom

AI and other digital technologies have been surprisingly slow to improve economic growth. But that could be about to change.

By Erik Brynjolfsson and Georgios Petropoulos

Productivity growth, a key driver for higher living standards, averaged only 1.3% since 2006, less than half the rate of the previous decade. But on June 3, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that US labor productivity increased by 5.4% in the first quarter of 2021. What’s better, there’s reason to believe that this is not just a blip, but rather a harbinger of better times ahead: a productivity surge that will match or surpass the boom times of the 1990s.  

Process Designers have to take note and design more productive processes.

Construction Productivity Management - CMU Notes - Books - Articles and Papers

 

https://www.cmu.edu/cee/projects/PMbook/04_Labor,_Material,_And_Equipment_Utilization.html

Construction Processes - Efficiency and Productivity

A project manager must insure that these inputs are effectively coordinated to achieve an efficient construction process. This coordination involves both strategic decisions and tactical management in the field. For example, strategic decisions about appropriate technologies or site layout are often made during the process of construction planning. During the course of construction, foremen and site managers will make decisions about work to be undertaken at particular times of the day based upon the availability of the necessary resources of labor, materials and equipment. Without coordination among these necessary inputs, the construction process will be inefficient or stop altogether.

Managing Productivity in Construction: JIT Operations and Measurements

Low Sui Pheng, Chan Yue Meng

Routledge, 26-Oct-2018 - Business & Economics - 250 pages

First published in 1997, this volume joined the debate assessing the potential of the Just-In-Time management philosophy from the manufacturing industry for Singapore’s construction industry by examining the "off-site" prefabrication of precast concrete components in Singapore, in comparison with traditional management systems. In the wake of the 1991 Strategic Economic Plan of Singapore, which forecasted alarmingly low productivity in the local construction sector, the authors noted that construction in Japan was 35% more productive, whilst Finland was 75% better. Highlighting immense potential for the JIT approach, they explore the JIT philosophy, traditional systems, construction wastes and comparisons between construction and manufacturing.

Construction Productivity in the Multilayer Subcontracting System: The Case of Singapore

Low Sui Pheng, Sim Jia Zheng

Springer, 14-Aug-2018 - Technology & Engineering - 300 pages

This book focuses on current subcontracting practices in the construction industry and their effects on Singapore’s construction productivity. It offers readers a better understanding of how the fragmentation of large and small firms in Singapore impacts construction productivity when operating under the commonly adopted multilayer subcontracting system (MLSS), which extends globally to the construction industries in other countries that have adopted the MLSS. The book also assesses the effectiveness of subcontracting practices in helping local contractors improve their construction productivity (and thereby improve the industry’s overall productivity). In closing, it provides recommendations on how the problems associated with the MLSS can best be addressed, and how its benefits can be capitalized on through organizational learning.

Measuring Productivity of Labour-Intensive Work Practices in Road Construction in Africa

Emmanuel Bamfo-Agyei, Clinton Aigbavboa, Wellington Didibhuku Thwala

Routledge, 15-Jul-2022 - Business & Economics - 120 pages

This book examines an issue of constant concern in the construction industry, that of productivity. Using data from Ghana and South Africa, it presents research into the productivity of local contractors in these countries whilst examining the predominance of labour-intensive production methods. The book begins by considering the theoretical and conceptual perspectives on labour productivity in the construction industry in the existing literature, before reviewing current productivity measurement frameworks. The book then explores the productivity of labour-intensive public works projects in South Africa and Ghana alongside a general discussion of key factors affecting construction productivity in these countries. Whilst the focus is on road construction, the framework developed can be applied to any number of construction projects to measure, and ultimately improve productivity. This book is useful reading for researchers and practitioners looking to understand the factors influencing labour productivity in construction at both the industry and the project level, including construction managers, quantity surveyors, cost engineers and project managers.

Your boss is paying you for the very best you can give them. Do not cheat them OR yourself.

 Do you really need to work so long to get it all done...or are you just being inefficient?

Join a professional group specific to your field, so you can benefit from their advice.

Empty your inboxes at least once daily, so the chore does not get ahead of you.

Clear the clutter from your workspace, so you can think and plan with less distraction.

 Surround yourself with happy things in your workplace, to make work more enjoyable.

If you truly want to maximize your productivity, you need to enjoy what you do.

File paperwork a few times a month, at least. You cannot afford to let those files pile up.

The better you can do your work, the sooner you can leave the office.

Exercise regularly! Ironically, the less active you are, the less energy you have.

Do not fear failure—but never assume it is inevitable.

Stop believing you have no control over your stress, and change the situation!

Readjust your expectations to fit within your energy levels; stop running your battery dry.

A good rule of thumb: you should earn or save your company 3 times your base salary yearly.

Give your tasks 110% of your energy and focus, so you do not undershoot the mark.

Ever heard of the Japanese concept of Karoshi? Look it up and think about it.

 Will attending a particular meeting help accomplish your work goals? If not, forget it.
