The paper presents
the method for solving the problem in production by using "7 steps"
of World Class Manufacturing Methodology (WCM). For each company with serial
production, it is important to know what to "attack to achieve goals and
to increase the OEE". The goal of each company is to reduce financial
losses but it is important to how to efficiently achieve that. In this case one
of chronic problems in lacquering line goes to loss due to the splitting of
sanding paper in the share of 27% of process loss, or 7% of all losses for that
line. The way to solve this problem was by using "7 steps
methodology". Indicator for solving the problem was % of influence on
Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). A more detailed analysis shows that
there are four possible causes of this problem. Type and quality of paper end
connection had the biggest impact. The problem was solved by changing quality
of paper and its connection. One very "easy" solution for unnoticed
loss caused very big saving for the company.
