Manufacturing Scrap Reduction Workflow

Minimize waste, maximize profits. This Manufacturing Scrap Reduction Workflow helps manufacturers identify root causes of scrap, streamline processes, and implement corrective actions - all in one place. Reduce material costs, improve efficiency, and boost your bottom line. Learn how to transform scrap into savings.

Start
1. Retrieve Scrap Data
2. Calculate Total Scrap Value
3. Initial Scrap Report
4. Assign Scrap Investigation
5. Fetch Machine Performance Data
6. Review Machine Data
7. Calculate Defect Rate per Machine
8. Log Investigation Findings
9. Propose Corrective Actions
10. Update Scrap Record with Findings
11. Implement Corrective Action
12. Notify Quality Control of Action
13. Retrieve Post-Action Scrap Data
14. Compare Scrap Rate Pre/Post Action
15. Final Scrap Reduction Report
End

Start of the Workflow/Process.

Fetch recent scrap data entries from the Scrap Data Model.

Aggregate scrap data to calculate the total value of scrap generated.

Generate a report summarizing the total scrap value and scrap rates.

Create a task to assign the investigation of the scrap to a designated engineer or team.

Retrieve relevant machine performance data (e.g., downtime, cycle times) for the involved machines.

Create a task for the assigned engineer to review the fetched machine performance data.

Calculate the defect rate for each machine involved in the scrap event.

Create an entry to log the findings of the scrap investigation, including potential causes.

Create a task to propose corrective actions based on the investigation findings.

Update the initial scrap record with the investigation findings and proposed corrective actions.

Create a task to implement the proposed corrective action.

Send an email to the Quality Control team notifying them of the corrective action taken.

Fetch scrap data entries *after* the corrective action was implemented.

Calculate and compare the scrap rate before and after the corrective action.

Generate a report summarizing the entire process, including findings, actions, and results.

Start of the Workflow/Process.
