How to Minimize Waste from Breakdowns, Set-Ups, Supply Chain Issues, and Staffing Constraints
Focusing on essential techniques, this book equips readers with the knowledge to maintain critical manufacturing equipment effectively. By implementing these strategies, readers can enhance production efficiency, reduce labor and breakdown costs, and ultimately improve profitability.
"Updated to include changes reflected in ISO/TX-16949:2002 standards and 2008 AIAG guidelines, The Basics of FMEA, Second Edition provides the expert advice needed to help shorten the learning curve for FMEA teams to conduct effective and efficient FMEAs, even if it is their very first one. Using a manufacturing case study, readers learn step-by-step how to use FMEAs to assess, evaluate, and prioritize areas of risk, and then to implement the actions needed to reduce risks to an acceptable level. It shows the steps needed to ferret out potential problems and prevent making inferior products that could endanger public and worker safety and compromise profits as well as the future of all stakeholders."--Jacket
