Indirect Impacts of Drastic Scrap Rate Reduction on Costs of Production Process in Precision Machining
Abstract:
The Lean Six Sigma (LSS) conception and other solutions in modern manufacturing and management systems have rapidly spread in precision machining in the last decades. Cost components related to quality control of precision parts are analyzed in the paper on the basis of the cutting edge LSS approach. An optimization framework intended to increase the efficiency of production process planning is introduced. The model helps in calculating economic profit, which differs from accounting profit with the extent of opportunity costs. It is found that drastic reduction of the scrap rate, though increasing customer satisfaction, is not always a proper solution due to the extent of quality cost. The applicability of the elaborated framework was tested and some promising results gained during managerial interviews are also summarized in the paper.
