Problem Statement

Current State

No current documentation of layout Transportation and motion waste Several jobs that can only be performed by sighted employees

Desired State Project Goals & Deliverables Key Constraints

Improved layout with better flow Included “flex” area to allow for additions of commercial jobs Reduced waste (focus on transportation and motion) Additional blind/visually impaired jobs Clearly documented current state New floor layout Convert sighted jobs to blind/visually impaired Design with ergonomics, quality, and safety in mind Maintain current square footage Focus blind/visually impaired jobs along tour route Use current electrical and air connections when possible Budget proposed and approved by ABVI

Our Matrix

Project Objectives

Project Objectives:

  • Enhance material flow
  • Enhance view along tour route
  • Limit motion to enhance safety

Project Constraints:

  • Must move heat press into sewing area
  • Must include a “flex area”
  • Requests:

○ Computer does not move ○ Limit additional electrical hookups

Cost:

  • To achieve project goals some costs

need to be accepted

  • Goal - to limit or justify required costs

Balancing the Line: Non-Value Added Observations

Balancing the Line: Non-Value Added Observations

4 stations were studied & NVA added

  • bservations were

recorded. 1. Putting Reflectors

  • n Pant Panels

2. Sewing Lining Sides Together 3. Closing Inseam 4. Attaching Zipper to Lining

slide-29
SLIDE 29

Non-Value Added Observations:

Putting Reflector on Pant Panel

Improvement Ideas:

  • Parts presentation → if the reflectors are displayed in an

untangled fashion, step 3 can be shortened.

  • Cell Shape → Instead of having machines 1 and 2 next to each
  • ther, an L shape with each machine placed at one side can

possibly reduce motion waste.

Step Number Step Description 1 Pick up a pant panel from under the machine (heat press) 2 Lay the pant panel flat on the bottom plate of the heat press 3 Pick reflector from basket and position it on the pant panel 4 Put the top plate of the heat press down 5 Wait for the machine to beep (load machine 2 simultaneously) 6 Put the top plate of the heat press up 7 Finish loading machine 2 8 Remove pant panel from machine 1 and lay it flat

  • n the table

9 Remove plastic from reflector

slide-30
SLIDE 30

Non-Value Added Observations:

Side Seam Front & Back Lining Together

Improvement Ideas:

  • Split the step into two jobs - one person could sew one side and

another person could sew the other.

  • Better training on how to line leg up with guide so it's quicker.

Step # Step Description 1 Pick up material (back panel of lining) and line it up under the machine, hooking it to the needle 2 Grab front of lining, unhook bottom from machine and line up the two together. Then rehook both panels under the machine 3 Line up the lining leg with the sewing guide 4 Push foot pedal down and sew material. Stop and realign material as necessary. This is done for 5 passes of sewing 5 Take the material out of the machine and flip it to the

  • ther side. Smooth out the material so it is flat and

aligned. 6 Hook material under the machine 7 Line up the lining leg with the sewing guide 8 Push foot pedal down and sew material. Stop and realign material as necessary. This is done for 5 passes of sewing 9 Once material reaches the notch, stop sewing and take the material out from the machine. Quality check sew job, press counter to track it and put material off to the right on a rack

slide-31
SLIDE 31

Non-Value Added Observations:

Closing the Inseam

Improvement Ideas:

  • Parts presentation → if the liners are properly aligned, the operator can spend less time trying to find the leg of the

pants.

  • Removal of inspection → the following step is the final inspection of the liners before they are placed into the shells.
  • Addition of a guide → this machine doesn't have a bar to help the operator align the fabric, whereas other machines on

the floor have a guide.

Step # Step Description 1 Operator picks up the liner at the waist. Then runs their hand down the seam of the pant to get to the leg opening and places the leg opening on sewing machine 2 Aligns the ends of the pant leg and places the liner under the machine leg 3 Aligns the liner fabric again, before starting to sew 4 Sews the inseam* this step involves multiple starts/stops

  • f the sewing machine to realign the liner fabric

5 Inspects the inseam with hand, by running fingers over the seam 6 Places the finished liner on the rack and aligns it

slide-32
SLIDE 32

Non-Value Added Observations:

Attaching Zipper to Lining

Step Number Step Description

1 Pick pants up and position it over the table with pants ankle facing the operator 2 On the pants ankle, turn the shell inside out 3 Align the lining & zipper attached to the shell together 4 Position pant under the machine (lining & zipper on shell) 5 Run the machine to attach the zipper 6 Align the other side of the same ankle (lining & zipper

  • n shell)

7 Position pant under the machine 8 Run machine to attach lining to shell on ankle 9 Pick pnts and position it over the table with the other pants ankle facing the operator 10 Repeat step 2 11 Repeat step 3 12 Repeat step 4 13 Repeat step 5 14 Repeat step 6 15 Repeat step 7 16 Repeat step 8 17 Pick pants & quickly inspect the work done

Improvement Idea:

  • Balancing the workload performed by the worker can potentially

speed up the process and eliminate waste. This might involve adding a worker, so the work can be split up and balanced.

Updates

  • Rehab Engineer Updates

(Report) ○ Will follow up on ■ Conversions relating to Air Force Pants ○ Out of Scope ■ Oven Mitt time study

  • Defect Tracking App Update:

○ We are still working on compiling important information to be collected ○ Once done this will be given to IT to implement into an app

slide-35
SLIDE 35

Updates: Budget

  • Floor Layout

○ Electricity for machines near fabric cutter ○ Waiting on final cost

  • $1,000 Grant for Assistive

Technology ○ As of 12/6, still have not heard from committee ○ Decision expected by January 1st

Risk Assessment

Some of the high/severe risks that were experienced during Phase IV: Risk Effect Mitigation Likelihood Severity Importance

New Layout does not perform as expected Instead of increasing throughput, production now takes longer Perform multiple analysis techniques and seek input from various sources to make the best informed decision 3 9 27 The floor layout redesign takes 2 months to implement Sew Lean is unable to implement additional continuous improvement ideas to the sewing department Communicate effectively with ABVI so that they can adequately plan when to implement the floor layout

  • redesign. Have them set deadlines

3 9 27 ABVI is unable to install

  • verhead power for

machines near fabric cutter The floor layout process will have to start over, a complete re-design Before anything is physically moved, be sure the work has been completed 3 6 18 Accelerated timeline Input for new floor layout not received from all stakeholders Allow as much time as possible for Kaizen event at ABVI 3 6 18 Unknown Unknowns TBD A new layout could cause unforeseen issues with production 3 3 9

SEW LEAN also continues to see and discuss Scope Creep to keep the project on track and focused.

Senior Design II Plan

  • Implement New Layout Design

○ Perform new time studies ○ Count WIP ○ All new data collection

  • Counter measures for non-value add

time in steps ○ Possibly changing parts presentation

  • Continue to follow up with the

information that the Rehab Engineers left

  • Create training documents
  • Create 5S (job standards, parts

presentation etc.)

  • Present an idea to reduce WIP
  • Continue working with ITs on defect

tracking app

  • Look into inventory storage area
  • Create a list of future recommendations

for ABVI and handoff material we have created

  • Plan for Imagine RIT
