Waste Action (action with no added-value)

Action waste in manufacturing should be eliminated because if those activities will occur over and over to eat a big waste of time. Action can be interpreted as an unnecessary waste action, action with no added-value, or late action and so forth. Lots of us have encountered the workers who take action that is not no use in the production area, but they do not realize it. Hence the need for training to employees with the intention those workers are able to identify, recognize and take action as well as getting used to reduce the activity of which is useless.

Some items that can be used as a reference that there were a manufacturing waste is the Increase of personnel and man-hours, concealing skills, work instability and unnecessary action. Increasing tendency waste must be properly addressed so as not to cause big losses. Are not aware there was an increase in factory workers by managers, they may only analyze the results produced in terms of decline. Automatically be added the number of workers. They do not realize that the cause of productivity decline was a waste of actions that caused the workers themselves

Inadequacy in Consideration of Work Contents

Inadequacy in addition to consideration of process sequences there are things that sometimes often do not seem that it is a waste of Inadequacy in consideration of work contents. The definition of work content is part of a job or process that is done by machine or human. Or in a smaller scope again is part of the activities of workers in working on a product. They sometimes do not realize that the work they do is work in vain, in the sense that if eliminated would not be a problem.

For example in the manufacture of factory bolts, one bolt-making process that there is no use of the jig process aims to measure the length of the bolt. Several times the workers are wiping jig used to measure these bolts. This jig cleaning activity when accumulated can seize a long time, whereas the quality is not so meaningful in the sense that if he did not commit any no effect

Inadequacy in Consideration of Process Sequence

The design process in a factory system will not end. The reforms would have to remain to be done to obtain an optimal system. Optimal in terms of productivity, quality and avoid waste in the area of process. Inadequacy in consideration of the process sequence is that many cases occur during the process towards improvement in the factory. Most important is the ability of engineers to be able to identify and analysis capabilities can reduce waste in production.

The order process is systematic and easy in manufacturing will help workers get the job done well. But sometimes with considerations of quality and perfect product. But all the components to be achieved must be packaged in a simple system and neatly arranged.

Low workability Increase of defects

One indication of machining and waste treatment is the workability and Increase Low defect. Low workability means that low productivity or product produced by one process or workers. However, workability is described more broadly, it could mean the system is too slow and far from the expected production targets, or performance of employees who decline for many reasons, such as systems that are not too long-winded, a perfectionist system that actually makes the work process becomes ineffective.

Increase of defect as a result of the treatment of goods that are not necessary but still performed. this can lead to work a second time and could result in product defects. Double inspection manual and automatic systems should be investigated where that could produce products that comply with the recommended quality standards. If the machine autoinspection can overcome the quality problems can be eliminated manual inspection. In addition to saving labor, the process can be faster.

Originally unnecessary Process and Work are Deems as Necessary

The changes in production very often occur along with the development of technology used. An industrial engineer must be sensitive to changes occurring in the process sometimes unnecessary Originally process and work are deems as Necessary.

Activities that should be removed occasionally still maintained by reason of changes in procedures requiring a change in the side of labor, machinery and process flow, changes in procedures also require changes in the workforce. They must be trained to follow the new working procedures. This change will be slow because it is still pictured with the old procedure. So the work habits of the old still remains taken although there has been new work procedures. So the activities that should not have to do is just done, resulting in a waste of time.
