Quality Improvement during Camshaft Keyway Tightening Using Shainin Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
The two major challenges that industries are facing today are continuous improvement in productivity and quality of the product. An alternative to the Classical and Taguchi experimental design is the lesser known but much simpler Shainin DOE approach. Shainin methods refer to a collection of principles, which make up the framework of a continually evolving approach to quality. Bosch Production System (BPS) one of the leading manufacturers in Diesel system equipments, has been successfully employing the strong statistical tool ‘Shainin’ for the root cause identification and Design of Experiments (DOE) techniques for analysis and optimization of the quality related issues. Shainin is popular tool being simplest to employ in the manufacturing related problem solving and very effective tool in identifying quality achievement hurdles. The present paper deals with one of the quality issues resolved by using Shainin methodology at Bosch Ltd, Banglore.

Justification of the Application of Tightening Elements in the Shaft- Hub Joint
Standardized methods of power transmission and motion transfer use different elements, such as keys, wedge-shaped shafts, polygonal shafts, and lateral pins to join the hub of driving or driven elements with the shaft, or make use of friction connections (cylindrical tightening connection, conical connection, tightening elements). Nowadays, the key is accepted as a universal joining method most...
متن کاملA methodological comparison of three strategies for quality improvement
Quality improvement is understood by Juran to be the systematic pursuit of improvement opportunities in production processes. Several methodologies are proposed in literature for quality improvement projects. Three of these methodologies – Taguchi’s methods, the Shainin system and the Six Sigma programme – are compared. The comparison is facilitated by a methodological framework for quality imp...
