Capacity Improvement

The Operational Bottleneck

Manufacturers believe their plant is running at max capacity and plan major capital expenditure, unaware that 20-35% hidden capacity is locked in bottlenecks and micro-stoppages.

Our Floor Implementation Approach

We follow a rigorous, hands-on methodology to execute changes on your lines. Here is exactly what we do:

1. 1
   Step 1: Perform plant-wide capacity modeling to pinpoint physical constraint stations.
2. 2
   Step 2: Sub-optimize non-bottlenecks to ensure continuous feeding of constraint equipment.
3. 3
   Step 3: Eliminate constraint downtime using targeted TPM and quick setup methods.
4. 4
   Step 4: Balance upstream and downstream process speeds with constraint pace.
5. 5
   Step 5: Establish constraint buffer management and real-time output monitoring.
