Reduction of 321 man-hours | Case study of Tobata Turret Works
DX of small and medium-sized manufacturing industries fighting against the world. Annual cost reduction of over 660,000 yen.
"To compete with the world, the core areas of production sites must be digitalized." —— Tobata Tallet Co., Ltd. has introduced Kaizen Maru as a tool to realize the Toyota Production System (TPS) through IoT. The challenge was the "variability in work time due to human factors." By utilizing contact switches, we analyzed where the variability in work time occurred. The decisive factors were the "price" and "freedom of data utilization" that other tools do not offer. As a result of linking the data from Kaizen Maru with our in-house developed system, the labor required for daily report aggregation was reduced to zero, the identification of equipment downtime causes became three times faster, achieving an annual cost reduction of over 321 hours and 660,000 yen. Furthermore, data-driven Kaizen has been revitalized, leading to an increase in improvement proposals from the field. No wiring work is required, and measurements can start in as little as three days. For those looking to enhance competitiveness through DX of core processes, please refer to the detailed case study.
