Indoor Positioning System: Improvement Case of Machine Operators
Instantly deployable position and motion analysis tool "InQross Kaizen Maker"
Introducing a case where the operating rate of machinery was improved by 10% using the M-M chart of IE.
We would like to introduce a case study utilizing the position and motion analysis tool "InQross Kaizen Maker" at a precision metal processing factory. Operators handling multiple machines find the order of machine inspections to be crucial. If the inspection order is random, machine downtime increases, leading to a decrease in operational efficiency. We want to analyze and improve this using the M-M (Man-Machine) chart from Industrial Engineering (IE). While we can obtain machine operation data, the position information of the operators is handwritten and therefore inaccurate, causing the M-M chart to function poorly. By automatically capturing the positions of operators with InQross and combining this data with machine operation data, we successfully visualized waste and unevenness, improving machine operational efficiency by 10%. 【Case Overview】 ■ Analysis - Analyzed the positions of operators during machine downtime - Verified the setup for tool maintenance - Simulated the order of machine inspections ■ Improvement - Established the order of machine inspections and work procedures - Changed tool maintenance setup from internal to external ■ Results - Successfully improved machine operational efficiency by 10% *For more details, please download the catalog.
