The customer is our focus. The Quality of our parts is how we ensure our customer is protected. In process checks are required by our customers to be completed every 30 minutes. Ask the Manufacturing technician to locate their IP check for all parts that were ran on this shift. Has the IP Sheet been completed? Take a photo of the IP sheet on the line.
-
Interview the Manufacturing Technician asking why the IP checks have not been completed.
-
All IP check sheets need to be the most up to date version from IQS. Old revisions of IP sheets do not include recent customer directions or concerns. Is the Operator using the most up to date IP sheet? Use the reference below to verify.
-
The In Process Check sheet asks Manufacturing Technicians to check for narrow, wide, deep and shallow ablation. Check a part at the end of the line, do you see any defects?
-
Call the Quality Technicians and Production Supervisor on shift to verify the part, if there is a concern the run may need to be re-ablated, re-brushed or put on hold. Pause the line until a decision is made.
-
Aluminum on the edge (ALoE) of the blank will cause the tensile strength of a welded seam to weaken greatly. If the weld seam is weaker then the base material of a part we will have a catastrophic failure at our customer. Does the Manufacturing Technician know how to properly check for ALoE?
-
Demonstrate the correct way to check an edge for ALoE. Then ask the Manufacturing Technician to show you the correct way of checking a part. If you are not sure how to check for ALoE call a Quality Technician on shift to demonstrate the correct process.
-
Check two finished pallets that have recently been ablated for ALoE. Is there any ALoE present on these pallets?
-
Call the Quality Technician on shift. If they agree that there is an unacceptable amount of Aluminum on the edge of the blanks they will flag the pallets for re-brushing. A new FO verifying no ALoE will need to be submitted to QA.

Layered Process audits are designed to verify process conformance. In this audit please verify items a, b, c, d, and e from section 3. Inspect the function of the Safety doors in the brushing area of the ablation line. Open the door and confirm that the master power at the HMI station drops out for each door. Does the power at the HMI shut off for each safety door?
-
Inform the Production Supervisor and Maintenance Manager.
-
Start a video at the Ablation HMI showing the power to the cell is currently on. Then continue the video with you opening one of the safety doors. Once the door is open pan over to the HMI and record the power now being shut off.

Layered Process audits are designed to verify process conformance. In this audit please verify items b, d, f, and h in the Destacking Area. Break the light curtain of all 4 destacking bays and confirm that the red fault light triggers. Are all destacking bay's fault lights working as intended?
-
Inform the Production Supervisor and Maintenance Manager
-
Take a video of the destacking bay having a green light indicating the line is ready to run. Then proceed to break the light curtain and continue to take a video of the fault light changing to red. This is only required for one of the destacking bays, not all 4.

-
A place for everything and everything in it's place. Is the weld cell following the 5S practices? (Select Yes or No to see more options)
-
SORT - Eliminate what is not needed. Is there any evidence on the line of tools or items that are not required? Take a photo of any items that should be red tagged or removed from the cell. If there is no issues take photos of the cell showing good SORT practices.
-
SET IN ORDER - Organize whatever remains by neatly arranging and identifying parts and tools for ease of use. Is the Station organized? Do all tools required for the job have a designated place and is that tool in that place? If there are any items that do not have a place or are not in their place take a photo of them. If not take photos representing good SET IN ORDER practices.
-
SHINE - Is the work area clean? Is the HMI cabin clean of any dirt and debris? Is the floor around the cell clean with no edge protectors or garbage on the floor? Take a photo for any issue the cell has with SHINE. If there are no issue please take photos representing good SHINE practices.
-
STANDARDIZE - Schedule regular cleaning and maintenance by conducting daily cleaning of the cell. Is the AM checklist being followed? Take a photo of the AM checklist.
-
Layered Process audits are designed to verify process conformance. In the Laser cell section of the AM checklist ask the Manufacturing Technician to show you how they validate items d and e. Once they show you preform the check yourself, visually inspect both the Souvis 1 and Souvis 2 upper cameras for dirt or debris. Where the lens free of debris?
