Waste Reduction and Efficiency Enhancement in Ceramic Contains Production Process Using Lean Concepts
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this research is to study and analyze problems in the workplace. The project uses the 7 principles of waste and finds problems and proposes solutions to improve the ceramic container production process by applying the lean concept with the goal of reducing waste and optimizing the ceramic container production process. By increasing the thickness of the fracture risk area and designing the experiment using the Taguchi method. Find the best parameters to increase process efficiency, with a Cpk of 2.02 and a Ppk of 3.89 are very good. The results showed that the waste was reduced from 43.11% to 13.21% and the efficiency of the production process increased from 56.89% to 86.79%.
