CASE STUDY SITUATION A large automotive seat manufacturer had production problems with their foam molding line. Tracking errors caused robot crashes, mis-pours, and production delays that were heavily penalized by their customer. ACTION After a review of the manufacturer’s processes, gathering customer requirements, and evaluation of potential solutions, we recommended that the seat manufacturer: Slow the line down in the near term to reduce tracking errors. A 7% speed reduction resulted in a 35% production increase. Rewrite the existing program to eliminate unnecessarily complex calculations related to tracking. Install an RFID system to clearly identify the carriers and provide a tracking back check. RESULT Following Automationnth’s consultation on electrical and mechanical design and integration, the seat manufacturer restored the line to design speed resulting in a 45% overall increase in line capacity.
