Industrial Engineering - Productivity Improvement - Process Improvement - Product Redesign - Continuous Improvement


Industrial engineering is improvement in various elements of engineering operations to increase productivity. Along with engineering elements, industrial engineers evaluate and improve many other elements also as they are responsible for productivity and cost of items produced in a process. Through assignments of improving productivity and efficiency of information technology and software engineering processes, industrial engineers specializing in IT were given responsibility for business processes also. Thus industrial engineers with focus on various branches of engineering provide their services to companies and society to improve various elements of the products and processes on a continuous basis over the product life cycle. They are active in engineering or production-maintenance-service-logistic processes and business processes.

Productivity improvement always focuses on quality and flexibility issues as productivity improvement should not lead to any deterioration in quality or flexibility. Delivery and cost are always at the core of industrial engineering. Thus when QFCD paradigm came, that is attention to quality, flexibility, cost and delivery became prominent, many industrial engineers were given the responsibility of managing this function of continuous improvement.

COST FOCUS IN PURCHASING CORE STRATEGY OF ZF AND PARTNERS  

CREATING THE FUTURE TOGETHER

Our aim is to concentrate on few suppliers to ensure the most profitable conditions considering TCO (Total Cost of Ownership).

Costs for production material account for more than 60 percent of our turnover which make them the
largest pool of costs and showcase the importance of materials management for the success of ZF.
Therefore, ZF will continue to focus on its need for efficient and innovative suppliers.

Through excellence in quality, logistics, and cost-cutting, suppliers recommend themselves for new orders within new projects.

The suppliers with the best possible cost situation and total performance will get the assignment.

Cost Engineering at ZF is in charge of monitoring the ideal cost structures. To achieve optimal cost
structures on the parts level, our basic procurement method is single sourcing.

 To ensure a systematic approach to the use of energy and resources, we will discuss our objec tives with you and determine the appropriate measures to meet them.

The supplier is an integral part of our development team. Early supplier involvement will help shorten development times and reduce costs. A further goal is the development of system suppliers.

It is our objective to involve the supplier in the product creation process at an early stage in order to sustainably influence the procurement costs and to increase the company’s innovativeness.

Pursuing the approach of Simultaneous Engineering, we avoid work redundancies and preserve valuable capacities. The supplier is expected to bring to the table his know-how and to take charge of detailed design and engineering work. This will help shorten development times and significantly reduce the costs for development, modeling, tools, and materials.

About 80 percent of the costs are determined by product design. Together we must establish optimum cost structures to achieve the target prices determined by the global market.

Strategic Cost Management


Cost transparency is necessary to identify cost-driving factors and to optimize cost structures.

We make our decisions based on competitiveness and always consider the total costs within the supply chain. For existing products, ZF will work with the suppliers in interdisciplinary value analysis teams. We want to change from annual price negotiations to on-going, open cost discussions. In doing so, the objective is not to challenge the suppliers’ profits, but to identify and eliminate the cost-driving factors caused by both sides in the product and process design and therefore jointly
achieve the best cost level.

To choose the right suppliers for Early Supplier Involvement, it is important to understand these suppliers’ cost structures and, as far as possible, have an overview of the entire supply chain. Sufficient cost transparency is a prerequisite for determining which suppliers are be able to achieve the target costs. This requires a team environment with the readiness and ability to openly discuss existing and possible cost structures while also creating new ones. We are ready to further bundle our requirements and make long-term commitments, when possible, to one supplier for each parts family.
The goal is to also maximize the profitability of our suppliers in relation to the global market cost level.

Introduction to Metal Cutting and Machine Tools - Stephenson - Agapiou

Metal cutting processes are industrial processes in which metal part are shaped by removing unwanted material from a blank (material input).

Woodworking tools like the cord lathe and the bow drill were in existence in ancient times. They used kinematic motions which are now used in several machine tools.

Leonardo Da Vinci drew designs for number of machine tools but they were not actually produced.

The first large metal cutting machine tools based on water power were cannon boring mills built in Italy in the early 1500s.

The first scientific study of metal cutting was done cannon boring and was reported by Count Rumford in a paper presented in 1798 to the Royal Society in London.

The Steam Engine - The Industrial Revolution and Further Development of Machine Tools

The development of steam engine led to the further development of machines powered by steam.
It  stimulated the development of many basic machine tools, since these were required to produce
the precise cylinders, surfaces of revolution, screw threads, and flat surfaces integral to the function
of the new machinery. Machine shops now could be built at any convenient location as they are run n steam power.  The bulk of the significant early machine tool development took place in England, although other parts of Europe have taken part in it. 

Boring Mill

John Wilkinson invented a more accurate horizontal boring mill in 1775. Wilkinson used a much heavier boring bar than was used in cannon boring mills, and supported the bar at both ends, greatly increasing rigidity and accuracy. He also used cutters with replaceable inserts driven by a feed screw inside the bar. This machine was the first recognizably modern machine tool, since it could perform heavy cuts with reasonable accuracy and employed a basic design that was replicated into the late twentieth century. Machine tools with the same basic layout are still widely used for line boring and large diameter work.

Lathes

Heavy metal cutting lathes came into use in the eighteenth century for machining rolling
mill rolls and cylinders for automatic looms.  The design ancestral to later screw-cutting engine
lathes, however, was developed by Henry Maudslay (1771–1831) in England.  His screw-cutting lathe was  built around 1797, employed Vee ways and a slide rest driven from a lead screw to cut threads.  Maudslay set new standards of accuracy for the profession by inventing a bench micrometer and pioneering the use of surface plates. He also trained many of the leading machine builders of the day, most notably Joseph Whitworth, who standardized screw threads, developed many feed and drive mechanisms, and was among the first to appreciate the primary importance of structural rigidity in machine tool design.

Planers and Shapers

Textile machinery, steam locomotives, and commercially produced machine tools required accurately machined flat surfaces, which led to the development of planers and shapers in the early nineteenth century. Both planers and shapers produced flat surfaces by moving a tool over a workpiece in a series of parallel and overlapping strokes. In a planer, the tool remained stationary and the workpiece, generally fixed to a table, moved relative to it; in a shaper, the work was stationary and the tool moved, generally on some sort of bar or arm.  Planers were used almost exclusively to produce flat surfaces, since the moving table was heavy and difficult to maneuver along a contour. Shapers, on the other hand, could be readily adapted to produce shaped features such as slots, keyways, and straight gear teeth. A number of planers were built in England before 1825, notably by Richard Roberts, James Fox, and Joseph Clement.   Among the first to be developed was Naysmith’s steam arm shaper, built about 1836. In this machine, the tool was mounted to a ram driven by a connecting rod. This was a common design during the nineteenth century, although traveling head machines of the type designed by Whitworth between 1840 and 1850, in which the tool was mounted on a head driven by reversing screws, were also prevalent.

Milling Machine

Simple milling methods had already been developed by Vaucanson in France and Naysmith in England. Small arms makers in Connecticut also reportedly constructed simple milling machines by 1820. The oldest extant machine was dated to 1818 and attributed to Eli Whitney even though the attribution is questioned. The first commercially produced milling machine was the Lincoln Miller ,
designed by F. A. Pratt and E. K. Root and  marketed by George S. Lincoln and Co. in 1855.  Pratt’s new company, Pratt and Whitney, began manufacturing them in large quantities later. Brown and Sharpe’s universal miller was  designed by J. R. Brown and introduced in 1862. This machine featured a knee and column structure, which greatly simplified the adjustment of the work height and is the design of choice of the familiar knee-mill of twentieth-century practice.

Drilling Machines

Drilling was typically performed on boring mills or lathes in early days. Upright and radial drill presses were introduced later.  Among the earliest were the upright or pillar drill presses introduced by Bodner and Whitworth in England in 1839 and 1847, respectively.  A  similar machine was patented in Germany in 1849 by August Harmann.. Radial drill presses were built in England in the early 1840s  and a radial drill press was developed and marketed in Germany by Johann Mannhardt in 1848. American quantity production firms soon recognized that multiple drilling spindles could be ganged together on a common base to produce multispindle machines for rapidly and accurately drilling hole patterns. These gang drill presses were used especially in the railroad industry for drilling hole patterns in boilers and wheels. The twist drill was patented by Stephen A. Morse in 1863. This now-ubiquitous tool rapidly displaced the crude spear-point drill used until that date.

Grinding Machines

Prior to 1850, cylindrical and surface grinding machines  were used especially for grinding rifle barrels, hardened slides for steam engines, and pulleys and rollers for automatic machinery.  Many early cylindrical and surface grinders were basically modified lathes or planers fitted with abrasive wheels. Early grinders generally used natural stone wheels or natural emery abrasives embedded in leather or wooden wheels.  The development of precision grinders began after 1860.  In 1876, Brown and Sharpe, an early contract manufacturer of sewing machines, brought out a universal grinder, which had the basic form of later cylindrical grinders and was also followed in surface grinders of similarly modern form by 1883.  These influential machines were sold worldwide beginning in the 1880s. Bonded aluminum oxide and silicon carbide wheels became available between 1885 and 1910 and made grinding more productive.

Gear Cutting Machines

Between 1825 and 1840 several English machine tool builders built form-cutter-type gear machines based on the milling principle. Whitworth introduced involute cutters about 1844. Templet machines, in which the teeth were  cut with a shaper or slotter tool guided by a template were developed and were especially popular for large gears. The development of precision grinding permitted manufacture of accurate complex tooling from hardened steel. The Fellows gear shaper and  hobbing machines are products of the 1890s.

CNC Milling - Introduction



https://wiki.harvard.edu/confluence/display/fabricationlab/MasterCAM+2020+Reference


MasterCAM is a software suite of Computer Aided Machining (CAM) applications developed by CNC Software, Inc. CAM applications use input geometry alongside machine+tool+stock definitions and user-specified parameters to generate a set of curves called tool paths. These paths are translated into machine-readable instructions through a process called posting. The output file (often using the .nc file extension) contains a list of coordinates that the machine must follow in order to excavate the desired form from the stock material. The most common language for this instruction set is G-code.

World Class Manufacturing - Explanation


                                              The source is a Fiat Presentation in 2005


The World Class Manufacturing, "WCM"

The World Class Manufacturing, "WCM" has its origins in the 80s, edited by Richard J. Schonberger, who collected dozens of cases, experiences and testimonies of companies that had embarked on the path of continuous improvement "Kaizen" for excellence in production, trying to give a systematic conceptual to the various practices and methodologies examined. these techniques have been known for some time , but through approach WCM, of Schonberger, we obtained a perfectly integrated together, with the highest organizational flexibility, capable of achieving a competitive company with high quality products at competitive prices, in line with the needs of the customer. The main model where the WCM system is inspired by the Toyota Production System (TPS), a method of organizing alternative to mass production based on the assembly line of Henry Ford. 's World Class Manufacturing is based on a few fundamental principles:


the involvement of people is the key to change;

the voice of the customer must come in all departments and offices;

all leaders must demand respect for the standards set;

methods should be applied with consistency and rigor;

all forms of waste (Muda) are not tolerable;

all faults must be made visible;

The World Class Manufacturing traditionally takes into account already known disciplines such as Total Industrial Engineering, Total Quality Control, Total Productive Maintenance, and Just In Time,  According to Fiat Group, "World Class Manufacturing (WCM)" is,


"A system of structured and integrated production that covers all the processes of the plant, the security environment, from maintenance to logistics and quality. The goal is to continuously improve production performance, seeking a progressive elimination of waste, in order to ensure product quality and maximum flexibility in responding to customer requests, through the involvement and motivation of the people working in the establishment." (Source: Fiat)

Fiat Group, has customized the WCM approach to their needs, calling, Prof. Hajime Yamashina Kyoto University, to redesign and implement the model through two lines of action:

ten pillars or other technical activities
ten pillars managerial

The pillars of technology or activities are structured improvement processes that must be present (Pillars), together with various tools (Tools). Together, they constitute the FIAT Production System. The pillars are technical:


Safety
Cost Deployment
Focused Improvement
Quality Control
Autonomous Activities
Professional Maintenance
Logistics / Customer Services
Early Equipment Management
People Development
Environment


The pillars managerial or management, are vice versa actions that must  be played by the central coordinator of Team WCM (WCM leader or plant manager). They  are aimed at promoting the commitment and responsibilities of the various managers assigned to specific pillars of activity  to carry out plans and projects through the dissemination of know-how.

The Managerial pillars are:

Commitment: "commitment, motivation and total involvement"
Management plans and objectives
Knowledge management
The culture-oriented retail

The growing sensitivity to issues of safety and energy has been transposed by Fiat Group, also in the methods of WCM, developing within the pillar Environment under a specific pillar called Energy, to stimulate the capacity of staff to identify and implement initiatives which will reduce waste and improve energy use. Achieving the different levels of performance at the Company is certified by external audits, carried out by a team chaired by representatives of the WCM Association. This audit system based on an indicator called IIM (Index Implementation Methodology), for a continuous internal benchmarking between the different entities by assigning symbolic medals, bronze, silver, gold and world class.



StudioBase thanks to the origin of some of its advisors from the world and Fiat, deep knowledge of the Toyota model and World Class Manufacturing is able to assist the Medium and Small Italian companies who wish to pursue efficiency through the introduction of global and / or part of these approaches.

A New Approach to Turning - High-Dynamic Turning

In a world-first live demonstration, Ceratizit showed its High-Dynamic Turning process in 2019 in Austria. The technique uses a turn-mill center’s milling spindle to perform the turning process.
Demonstrated Example
A bike hub made from aluminum (AlCuMgPb) was  machined on an Emco Hyperturn 665 MCplus.
One tool is used for roughing (1500 min-1, ap = 2 mm, f = 0.4 mm/rpm) and finishing (2000 min-1, ap < 1 mm, f = 0.25 mm/rpm). Since the angle-of-approach can be adjusted during machining, all contours can be machined in one setup (even undercuts). Empty travels are eliminated because the tool cuts in both directions, top to bottom and vice versa. Compared to conventional turning, four tools were saved and the process time reduced from 2:10 to 1:35 minutes.

Dec 22, 2014 -  G&Z Industries halves machining cycle time;

Previously, the job was run on a vertical machining center, two parts at a time, with 6 to 8 hours needed for setup plus quality control verification time.” The setup used on the new Mazak HCN 4000 included a new 10" x 10" x 24" Kurt tombstone on each of the machine’s two pallets. The Kurt PinLock system was installed in both tombstones enabling the processing of 12 parts at a time – three for each fixture plate. This reduced cycle time by half over the previous method. setup time goes from 7 hours to under under 60 minutes.

How Best Shops are Reducing  Cycle Times by 25% | American Machinist

Jan 23, 2007 - IN THE 2006 AMERICAN MACHINIST:  Benchmarking Survey indicates that  average machining cycle times (from the start of a cut to completion) for a typical product  saw a decrease in cycle times, with an average of 25 percent. Independent job shops reported the greatest decrease — 40 percent to 50 percent. The most important tool that shops use is an organized approach to continually improve the processes they use.  Top shops are twice as likely to use formal continuous improvement programs — 51 percent of the top shops have formal programs in place compared with 27.4 percent of all other shops.

Step Reduction Milling Reduces Roughing Cycle Time by 30 percent

Nov 2, 2004
Rough machining operations and  removal of large volumes of material is crucial when preparing a mold or  pattern for finish machining. Modacam Inc. (Denver, North Carolina), a pattern, mold and production job shop experienced substantial time savings with an alternative to rest roughing from Surfware Inc. (Westlake Village, California). Step Reduction Milling (SRM) is an integrated component in the SurfCAM CAD/CAM system. It creates a single roughing program that can be used for machining molds and patterns.  SRM has cut rough machining programming time in half and  rough machining cycle time  by 30 percent.

The programmer working with a single dialog box and intelligent knowledge base. The technology analyzes the capabilities and limitations of all tools in the list and uses them together, as a cohesive group, to produce the appropriate roughing program.  The process  promotes the use of larger cutting tools to remove more stock with reductions in the number of steps required to prepare for the following tool. A uniform amount of material is left behind for finishing, thus accommodating the application of constant loads to the cutting tools, all of which minimizes tool wear and the likelihood of tool breakage. The company does the finishing operation in the night shift with less manpower, as it is confident of smooth operation.

Minimizing the cost of CNC parts (13  design tips) | 3D Hubs


Common Issues

  • Consider the Machinability of the Material
  • Consider the Cost of the Bulk Material
  • Think Blank Size
  • Keep the number of Machine Setups to a Minimum
  • Avoid (Multiple) Surface Finishes


Detailed Design Features

  • Add a Radius in Internal Vertical Edges
  • Limit the Depth of Cavities
  • Increase the Thickness of Thin Walls
  • Limit the Length of Threads
  • Design Holes with Standard Size
  • Specify Tolerances only when Necessary
  • *If a specific tolerance is not defined on the technical drawing, then the parts will be machined using the standard tolerance (± 0.125 mm or better), which is sufficient for most non-critical features.
  • Avoid Small Features with High Aspect Ratio

Increase Production With Setup Time Reduction
Jun 1, 2006
Consider a shop running four CNC mills for two shifts per day at a shop rate of $40 per hour. If each operator takes 1 hour per shift on each machine for tool setup, the shop is losing about $320 per day, or $83,200 per year, to spindle downtime. The downtime can be reduced and production can be increased.

Companies are profitable trying to reduce setup cost cost. The crib attendant is being replaced with a skilled machinist who gathers the proper fixtures and kits the tools for each job, measuring each tool tip off-line. This saves lot set up time. Part programs as well as tool offset data are downloaded directly into the machine control, reducing possible human error. Using  modular workholding systems and off-line tool presetting equipment significantly reduces spindle downtime and keeps their machine tools producing quality components. Off-line adjustment of boring bar length and diameter can reduce tool change-over time at the machine from 15 minutes to less than 1 minute. On CNC lathes, similar reductions in setup times are  achieved. With tools that require a length-only setup, shops can realize a reduction in setup time from 5 minutes to less than 1 minute per tool.  BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc. provides the modular workholding systems and presetting equipment.

CNC Machining Cost Reduction - Guidelines

1. Rounded Internal Corners   L:D ratio (length to diameter)  ≤ 3:1
2. Avoid Deep Pockets: we suggest parts with lengths up to 4X their depth or in other words depth less than one fourth of the length
3. Limit Use of Tight Tolerances
4. Expand Thin Walls
5. Optimize Tapped Holes
6. Use Standard Drill Sizes
7. Use Less Expensive Materials
8. Avoid Multiple surface Finishes
9. Split Up Complex Parts
10. Increase batch quantities by going for common use across more products

Engine block machining time cut by more than half

Jinan Diesel Engine Co., Ltd. (JDEC) manufactures high quality gas and diesel engines and generators in Jinan City in the Chinese province of Shandong. A recent  machining challenge was rough milling, semi-finishing and finishing of MAN engine blocks.

WaldrichSiegen is a market leader in the manufacturing of heavy-duty machine tools for milling, turning, grinding and texturing  customized machine tools for diesel engines.  In the tender process, two of its state-of-the-art ProfiMill portal mills with a setup width of 3,000 mm, a setup length of 8,000 mm and 6,000 mm respectively, and a clearance of 4,000 mm between the columns became winners.

A diesel engine block  can weigh more than 20 tons with a complicated shape and very high requirements in terms of accuracy. The cylinder bore is up to 610 mm deep. It must be perfectly positioned in relation to the bearing bore.  The ProfiMill portal mills with a milling power of 100 kW at the tool center point combined a number of features to meet these requirements successfully and reduced machine time by half as compared with the earlier known time estimate.
