Case study of automation in the parts insertion process: Reduction of defect rate and improvement of quality through variation improvement.

Presenting a collection of case studies! Examples where productivity dramatically improved and production costs decreased.

We would like to introduce a case study of automation in the insertion process by JUKI Corporation. In the component insertion process, there was variability between processes, and it relied on the skills of experienced workers. As a result, variations in quality occurred depending on the skill level and physical condition of the workers, leading to a decline in quality. Therefore, we considered automation using the JM100 and the introduction of the JaNets system. By reducing variability, the defect rate decreased, high-quality production was achieved, and productivity dramatically improved due to stable production speeds, resulting in reduced production costs. [Case Summary] ■ Background: Variability due to worker skills, task difficulty, physical condition, and experience was an issue. ■ Solution: Automation and system implementation. ■ Effect: High-quality production and increased efficiency. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
