There is a three way break up of time in a process.
Value added activity time + Non-value added activity time + No value added time.
Cost is incurred all the time. Time reduction is cost reduction if resources are same. (Narayana Rao, 19 July 2021)
Questions on Machine, Equipment and Tools to Improve Elements of Value-Adding Operations or Processing Operations
Operations Analysis - Maynard and Stegemerten (1939)
Barnes has focused on the motions and activities of the operators and he mentioned machines in a brief manner. It is Maynard and Stegemerten who documented the practice of Westinghouse in the book "Operational Analysis." In this description of productivity improvement many aspects related to machine are covered first and then only at the end of standardizing the machine related aspects, motion study, the work of the operator is investigated. Thus we can see in process improvement, process machine effort improvement and process human effort improvement. Better machines, more useful cutting tools, faster movements of required machine parts, better machine accessories etc. increase productivity and reduce costs.The following questions are suggested by Maynard and Stegemerten for logical analysis of machine, equipment and tools.
About Machine
2. Would the purchase of a better machine be justified?
About Fixture - Workholding
3. Can the work be held in the machine by other means to better advantage?
4. Should a vise be used?
5. Should a jig be used?
6. Should clamps be used?
7. Is the jig design good from a motion-economy standpoint?
8. Can the part be inserted and removed quickly from the jig?
9. Would quick-acting cam-actuated tightening mechanisms be desirable on vise, jig, or clamps?
10. Can ejectors for automatically removing part when vise or jig is opened be installed?
11. Is chuck of best type for the purpose?
12. Would special jaws be better?
13. Should a multiple fixture be provided?
14. Should duplicate holding means be provided so that one may be loaded while machine is making a cut on a part held in the other?
About Cutting Tools
15. Are the cutters proper?
16. Should high-speed steel or cemented carbide cutting tool be used?
17. Are tools properly ground?
18. Is the necessary accuracy readily obtainable with tool and fixture equipment available?
19. Are all operators and machines provided with the same tools?
20. Can a special tool be made to improve the operation?
Because of the wide variety of tools available for different kinds of work, this list could be extended almost indefinitely with specific questions. Foundries, forge shops, processing industries, assembly plants, and so on all have different kinds of tools, and different questions might be asked in each case. The list given above, drawn up principally and by no means completely for machine work, will indicate the kind of searching, suggestive questions that should be asked.
A special list might well be drawn up by each individual plant to cover the questions on the kind of machines, machine tools that are used in its own work.

Mixing by stirring: optimizing shapes and strategies
Maximilian F. Eggl, Peter J. Schmid
The mixing of binary fluids by stirrers is a commonplace procedure in many industrial and natural settings, and mixing efficiency directly translates into more homogeneous final products, more enriched compounds, and often substantial economic savings in energy and input ingredients. Enhancements in mixing efficiency can be accomplished by unorthodox stirring protocols as well as modified stirrer shapes that utilize unsteady hydrodynamics and vortex-shedding features to instigate the formation of fluid filaments which ultimately succumb to diffusion and produce a homogeneous mixture. We propose a PDE-constrained optimization approach to address the problem of mixing enhancement for binary fluids. Within a gradient-based framework, we target the stirring strategy as well as the cross-sectional shape of the stirrers to achieve improved mixedness over a given time horizon and within a prescribed energy budget. The optimization produces a significant enhancement in homogeneity in the initially separated fluids, suggesting promising modifications to traditional stirring protocols.

Potential of welding automation to improve productivity and efficiency.
By Engineering Department | Arc Machines, Inc. January 25, 2022
https://www.allaboutpiping.com/what-is-orbital-welding/
Orbital welding is a technique whereby the welding tool is rotated through 360° (or 180° in double up welding) around a static workpiece. Originally developed to solve the problem of operator error in Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding (also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)), and allow for a uniform weld around pipes and tubes, which can be difficult to achieve with manual welding processes.
The orbital welding process can create high quality repeatable welds with the use of a computer, meaning that there is little need for intervention from a welding operator. The process is used for two main applications; tube-to-tube / pipe-to-pipe joining and tube-to-tubesheet joining.
https://www.twi-global.com/technical-knowledge/faqs/what-is-orbital-welding
The Orbital Welding Process
Orbital Welding was developed to address the issue of operator error in GTAW processes. The process was developed 50 years ago, but is becoming increasingly popular in recent years. With automated welding, the computer-controlled process runs with little intervention from the operator. Computer controlled systems combine arc current, feed and speed to allow the ‘orbital weld head’ to travel around the tube in a steady and repeatable manner. The operator’s responsibility becomes simply fit-up and monitoring in most cases. Once a weld schedule (program) has been developed for a specific ‘heat’ of material, the weld profile should remain consistent.
High quality, repeatable welds can be delivered for critical applications but this comes with a price. The cost of Orbital Welding Equipment when compared with conventional equipment is 5-10 times the initial capital cost. The good news is that much of this cost can be recovered over time as productivity ranges between 2-3 times that of conventional means.

Zurich, Switzerland, 2021/12/15 - Global technology company ABB has today launched its Tundish EMS solution to enable steelmakers to overcome the limited ability of the tundish vessel in controlling the flow of molten metal, and therefore steel quality and temperature - ABB.com. ABBN: SIX Swiss Ex
• ABB’s new Tundish EMS (electromagnetic stirring) offering will improve quality, productivity and profitability in billet and bloom casting and metal powder production;
• The new technology enables steel plant operators to overcome challenges of controlling flow, steel quality and temperature in tundish not yet solved by furniture systems;
• Solution will match the industry’s higher requirements for steel cleanliness.
Tundish EMS is placed on the outside of the tundish and uses non-contact electromagnetic stirring technology to generate an electromagnetic field that creates a stirring effect in the bath melt. This continuous stirring significantly increases mixing zone volume for virtually the entire tundish, with higher flow speeds, elimination of dead zones and homogenization of temperature.
Adoption of this electromagnetic stirring technology will be particularly important for steelmakers with multiple casting strands coming from one tundish. It will mean greater removal of inclusions, resulting in smoother, cleaner steel and reductions in nozzle clogging.
By creating a stirring flow throughout the entire tundish melt bath, Tundish EMS delivers rapid homogenization of temperature and chemical composition that results in better quality steel, more uniform and repeatable casting conditions across multiple strands and overall improved quality, productivity and profitability in billet and bloom casting and metal powder production.
“The new Tundish EMS is a result of ABB’s know-how in stirrer design and unrivalled process insight gained from thousands of installations as well as track record in collaborative product development,” said Zaeim Mehraban, Global Sales Manager, Metallurgy Products at ABB. “It allows steelmakers to overcome a challenge that tundish furniture has not yet be

Optomec - Two New Production Additive Manufacturing Machines
Fully Automated Metal Additive and 3D Printed Electronics machines reduce production costs
November 16, 2021
Optomec Inc., a leader in production solutions for Metal Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printed Electronics, is now offering two new Additive Manufacturing machines. Both of these machines are specifically designed for high volume production, incorporate automated part-handling options and are designed with operator-friendly production software for error-free job sequencing in a manufacturing setting.
The first of these machines is the HC-TBR, a compact, all-in-one Metal Additive Manufacturing machine that uses LENS® Directed Energy Deposition (DED) to build or repair 3D metal parts with a wide variety of alloys. In particular, this new machine is capable of processing reactive metal alloys such as titanium and aluminum at high volume in an oxygen-free chamber to ensure superior mechanical properties. Using advanced laser optics, the machine can remotely change the size and power profile of its laser beam, enabling significant reductions in print times. This is a first for the industry. The machine was designed in response to manufacturers in several industries that are seeking lower cost methods of producing and repairing titanium components as the industrial use of titanium continues to grow worldwide.
The second machine to be highlighted is the new Aerosol Jet® HD2 3D Electronics Printer for 3D Semiconductor Packaging/Assembly. The Aerosol Jet HD2, uses Optomec’s patented Aerosol Jet solution to produce high resolution circuitry (with features as small as 10 microns), including a unique ability to dispense conformal 3D interconnects between die, chips, components and substrates. This interconnect approach is all the more powerful due to its improved performance at high signal frequencies, enabling longer range and reduced power consumption in emerging segments such as 5G communications, automotive radar and defense applications. As a primary application, the Aerosol Jet HD2 can serve as a drop-in replacement for the decades-old method of connecting electrical components with wire bonds, which suffer from several critical deficiencies including space inefficiency, high scrap and poor signal performance.
Optomec is a privately-held, rapidly growing supplier of Additive Manufacturing systems. Optomec’s patented Aerosol Jet Systems for printed electronics, and LENS and Huffman brand 3D Printers for metal component production and repair, are used by industry to reduce product cost and improve performance. Together, these unique printing solutions work with the broadest spectrum of functional materials, ranging from electronic inks to structural metals and even biological matter. Optomec has delivered more than 500 of its proprietary Additive Manufacturing systems to more than 200 marquee customers around the world, for production applications in the electronics, energy, life sciences and aerospace industries. The users include GE, Samsung, Raytheon, Siemens, Lockheed and LiteOn, as well as the US Air Force, US Navy, US Army and NASA

"New machine function improves cycle time of Injection Moulding and protects the engine"
The new SmartTurn option for 2K injection molding
After six months of development, KraussMaffei has tested the SmartTurn optimization option not only in field tests at selected customers but also in-house on five different rotary platen and insert machines.
The new function SmartTurn from KraussMaffei not only optimizes the turning speed but above all adjusts acceleration and deceleration based on the motor's characteristic curve. This does not only improve cycle times, but also protects the engine. In general, the lighter the tool, the more interesting this feature becomes and the greater the potential it offers. One of the first customers to successfully test the new SmartTurn function in field tests is Nifco. For the specific application, more than one second of cycle time could be saved. You can download, interview of Andreas Handschke, Technology Manager and responsible for multi-component injection molding and foaming at KraussMaffei, explaining the functionality and advantages of the new function.

Finishing the part after Machining by Manual Processes is a Cost-Cutting Opportunity
Jeff Elliott
JUN 24, 2020
Secondary finishing operations are conducted offline to remove excess material on semi-finished parts by hand using oscillating tools, grinders, files, abrasive hand pads, and wire brushes.
These secondary operations can be automated effectively using a variety of abrasive tools mounted in a toolholder and carousel without removing the part from the machine.
Wolfram Manufacturing produces a range of complex parts with through-holes. Removing burrs and sharp edges in cross-drilled holes and other difficult-to-access areas — such as undercuts, grooves, slots, or internal holes is essential as burrs can cause blockages or create turbulence in the flow of fluids, lubricants and gases through critical passages.
Wolfram has automated the cross-hole deburring process by incorporating Flex-Hone tools in a variety of sizes in its tool carousels. The Flex-Hone is , supplied by Los Angeles-based Brush Research Manufacturing (BRM).
