DESCRIPTION

This Six Sigma Project submitted by Advance Innovation Group student intended for the reduction in rejection rate of grinding mark on piston and increase customer satisfaction level. The objective to reduce overall rejection rate from 2.8% to 0,5%. Mark observed on piston during grinding process which affects customer satisfaction. After improvement variation found less than 75% tolerance as per new specifications, Overall scrap reduced from 14000 ppm to 8000 ppm. Defect grinding mark reduced from 10000ppm to 1000ppm Additionally, it is advisable that you also visit and subscribe Advance Innovation Group Blog (http://advanceinnovationgroup.com/blog) for more Lean Six Sigma Projects, Case Studies on Lean Six Sigma, Lean Six Sigma Videos, Lean Six Sigma Discussions, Lean Six Sigma Jobs etc.

Business caseXYZ Ltd is a sister concern of ABC Ltd. It is ISO/TS-16949 certified company. It manufactures Automotive component for Automotive

Airconditioning systems. It is a TTT group company, XYZ Ltd. is situated at Gr Noida .By considering the last four months data we

observed that rejection of grinding mark on piston is @ 2.8% against the target 0..5%. This may result customer dissatisfaction, revenue generation and majorly contributing to customer penalty

against process performance for last 4 months. This may also impact our long term business planning and new business

generation from existing Customer

Problem StatementLast 4 months data shows that the Max rate of rejection is 3.8 % and Min rate of rejection is 2.8 % . So average rate of rejection is 2.8 % for part no 10s11 By reducing rate of rejection from 2.8% to 0.5 % saving in rupees will be 12 Lac par annum & It might impact our long term business planning with the existing client

and can contribute to reduce process penalty,

Selection of DOE Tool

Since Good and Bad parts Can be created alternately,We selected B Vs C Tool to Validate the root cause(s)

Deciding B and C Condition for the Project

The Tool used for finding out the root cause is Product Process Search.

Hence the “B” condition are those corresponding to Good category and

The “C” condition are those corresponding to Bad condition.

Tool for Validation Root cause

Page 42: Six sigma project on Reducing Rejection Rate of Grinding Mark on Piston

* 3 good & 3 bad batches (1500 pistons in one batch) are selected alternate as sample for validation.* Data collected (Rej.%) as given below :

Batch Better Current

1 0.20% 1.94%

2 0.13% 1.15%

3 0.15% 1.98%

* Root cause is leading to distinct seperation between Bad & Good batches with no overlap.* There is no overlap in rej.% data so Root cause is validated.
