Industrial Engineering Tools and Methods for Productivity Improvement

Abstract

Any company's outputs and earnings are directly influenced by the number of flaws they have. Optimum productivity is achieved by maximising the use of available resources while reducing industrial waste to the minimum amount achievable, resulting in lower production costs. The investigation began by observing the regular operating procedures and gaining a grasp of the current process flow. There was also a focus on the production line as a way to identify potential issues and areas for improvement. An integrated platform of time and method studies and layout studies helped detect and correct the time lost in unnecessary movements of labour and tools that resulted in long machine idle time. The usual and timeconsuming packing procedure was simplified by the adoption of a newer method. There were ideas put up about how to reduce the amount of time that machines sit idle, how to use zip ties instead of the old packaging approach, and how to reduce the amount of non-valueadded tasks that occur in the industry. In a highly competitive business, spinning mills face the problem of increasing productivity in order to remain profitable. It is critical to give better products at lower costs to the end user through increasing the efficiency of the plant, as every input cost rises year after year. At this point in time, the company is capable of producing over 85680 spindles each day. Due to a variety of factors, this capacity cannot be fully exploited.
