Productivity Enhancement of Wire Drawing through Root Cause Analysis (RCA)

Sanjay Singh, Dr. A. Dalpati

Abstract


Productivity enhancement has become an important goal for improving the production performance in many manufacturing industries. We have attempted to present productivity enhancement by improving the method of production and reducing the downtime of machine. Our main work highlights the maintenance and productivity improvement with the help of root cause analysis of wire drawing process in context with steel wires which are used in manufacturing of tires. So, here in this paper we provide knowledge of root cause analysis by using the why- why analysis tool to identify the origin of failure of machines for enhancing the productivity of steel wires. It provides a deep knowledge about the process, failure, methodology and overall details of wire drawing to improve the productivity and performance.
