PROBLEM STATEMENT
DEFINE
D M A I C R
VOICE OF THE CUSTOMER: Wooden tables are not ergo friendly and not efficient.
CTQ/CTF STATEMENT (Critical To Quality/Flow) - Customer Requirement:
KCISP must have tables that articulate to produce high quality re[pairs / metal finish.
COST OF POOR QUALITY/FLOW:
Potential rework of material not metal finished to standards as a result of the constraints imposed by the tables
on the process. Ergo optimization will prevent injuries.
SCOPE AND GOAL:
Reduce nonconforming parts by 100%.and improve Ergo conditions.
Plant: KCISPLine: KCISP P2 SchulerArea: KCISP Press
Part/Process Name: KCISP Part / Op.
No Standard exists for the DMR
tables.

Tables were designed with a center post and bushing and
wheels on both sides for capability to rotate 360 degrees with
ease.

We used and acme screw and block to allow the table wheels
to be locked in any position of rotation with only a quarter turn.
Plan to add a rubber cap to avoid damaging the wheel

ANALYZE & IMPROVE
We fabricated a
mockup tilting lock
plate with 3 position of
tilt. Final machining
will add one more
hole per operators
request for an
additional position.
Current 2 pin
positions for flat and
15 degree working
angle.
Additional hole

Team installed aluminum slats
with 1” holes drilled on 6”
centers to allow multiple pin
configurations and also the
ability to work inboards on the
panels without the need of
flipping the part over.

All tilting locks and table slats have been
machined and are ready for install.
All table top frames are onsite and ready for
final assembly.

ANALYZE & IMPROVE
Floor has been painted and all 11 frames
have been painted. Team used flat black
antiskid paint to eliminate slip hazards with
the metal dust. Starting install the week of

D M A I C R
ANALYZE & IMPROVE
With the new design the
Operator will be able to
Move the panel into
different positions to
eliminate potential
Ergo issues with
bending and reaching.
Also the part can be
worked from the under
side with out the need of
lifting the panel and
flipping it over.
This should help
eliminate moves that
would cost extra time.

Key Process Input Variable X1 : VOPQUN 050 PSW Procedure (resource).
Analysis :
7.3.2. Re-sourced Parts:
❑ VOPQUN 050 (continued)
• Review with the Assembly Plant Representatives the PSW Package, Current
Surface/Dimensional Data, Control Point Boards, QPS Sheets, Process Verification
Check Sheet, Process Control Plans, Packaging Specifications, Checking Fixture
Certification, WERS Alerts/Concerns. Additionally, review any background quality
information (i.e. TCO's, Work Plans, Global 8-D's, DMAIC concern Resolution details,
and Customer Concerns
• KCISP did not follow the procedure and make the appropriate contacts at DTP.
Action
❑ New Bullseye Panel produced before next run, DTG 6/8/2020
❑ A reference panel was obtained from KCAP Truck Body.
Results:
❑ All future resources must adhere to the procedure.
