[Case Study] Troubles Caused by Chocolate Stops on the Line
Frequent "choco stops" during line operation! Introducing a case of improvement with the implementation of positioning sensors!
At one point on the production line, frequent troubles (chocolate stops) were occurring, and during these troubles, the line could not be stopped, causing the work from the previous process to enter the trouble area and become defective. We wanted to introduce AB control, so we summarized the current issues, which revealed three main factors: "troubles are not detected, and work is being input," "work continues to flow even while workers are engaged in recovery operations, making it unsafe," and "the working environment is poor, and the photoelectric sensor is not detecting." Therefore, we installed the positioning sensor "PS-4482" from Makome Research Institute on the line conveyor and the magnetic body "MG-102A" on the work pallet. As a result of the improvements, we achieved a work loss amount of 0 yen and realized a cost reduction of 26,568,000 yen per year. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
