Optimization of thermal cup injection process through DMAIC and Technical-Organizational KPI Dashboard

Le résumé fourni par la source

In this research, DMAIC methodology was applied in making foam cups using a mix of tech and team-focused metrics. Weight differences in final items matter - too much fluctuation raises material expenses and risks missing client standards. Instead of newer machines on line 2, older gear online 4 made more faulty pieces: nearly double the waste. When data patterns didn’t follow normal curves, it turned to Clements’ approach, uncovering uneven mold deterioration as the main issue. Performance capability numbers confirmed it in process’ lines. Tracking performance began showing immediate effects once dashboards went live, capturing 12 technical plus 8 operational indicators. Decisions started relying more on evidence when numbers revealed a likely drop in waste - around $792,588.00 MXN saved per million items made. Findings suggest stronger outcomes occur where human habits and workplace culture join standard efficiency measures. Lasting gains in plastic molding settings grow more achievable this way.
