This study describes in detail step-by-step implementation of quality improve- ment activities mechanical processing plants. Describe how to imple- 4.0 technologies DMAIC (Define-Measure-Analysis-Improve- Control) phases. As well as using statistical formulas, experimental design data analysis at each phase DMAIC. proposes use Quality Technology product improvement factories with the aim becomi...

Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah kecacatan produk pada PT. XYZ yang bergerak dalam produksi frozen food hasil olahan perikanan dan udang. Masalah dihadapi adalah adanya cacat kulit dimsum ketidakseragaman bentuk proses dimsum. Dalam penelitian ini, digunakan pendekatan Six Sigma dengan metode DMAIC. Hasil mengungkapkan bahwa ada dua jenis dimsum, yaitu kerusakan mencapai 66% 34%...

Field emission from carbon nanotubes (CNT) for display purposes was optimized using Design of Experiments (DOE). The brightness was improved by three orders of magnitude but the achieved gains could not be sustained in the “Control” phase of a DMAIC project and the process reverted to poor performance. It took an intense effort of circa two months to recover the process. Monte Carlo simulations...

This paper develops and illustrates a case in manufacturing management, using the instance of justifying quality improvement of ball bearings—a common precision product whose correct manufacture and assembly greatly affects their efficiency, utility and life. Mass-produced at high speed, bearings extend a fertile domain for benefiting from QA apparatus including Gage R&R, ISO standards, samplin...

Medical tools needs to be managed efficiently and sensibly from the initial step of procurement till being damaged. This includes acquiring procedure, operative procedures and the maintenance policies used in this regards. Managing the maintenance of medical tools is vigorous for the patient, medical doctors and for the hospital itself. One of the main complications in healthcare sector today i...
