Six Sigma approach is generally employed to improve the sigma level of manufacturing or service processes by reducing their deviations and defects. Six Sigma provides the opportunity to eliminate mistakes, improve morale and save money. Doing things right in first time and keeping them consistent is the only idea behind Six Sigma. Its fundamental objective is to achieve customer satisfaction with continuous improvement in quality and productivity. Mostly we are emphasizing on various tools or techniques being used during DMAIC projects and almost ignore the procedure to execute different phases of the Six Sigma project. This book provides unique step by step methodologies to perform Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve and Control phases of a Six Sigma project, respectively. An empirical investigation has been carried out in a make-to-order type (medium sized) foundry and Six Sigma is successfully implemented by decreasing the scrap of piston castings, appreciably. The book focuses on scrap reduction specifically in Indian foundries and tries to find out the reasons of low productivity index. It also tends to shatter the various phobias of SMEs in context of Six Sigma by validating the compatibility of proposed methodologies through a successful case study in Indian foundry environments.

Six Sigma at many organizations simply means a measure of quality that strives for near perfection. It is a disciplined data-driven approach and methodology for eliminating defects in any process, from manufacturing to transaction and from product to service. This paper demonstrates the empirical application of Six Sigma and DMAIC to reduce product scrap within a piston manufacturing organization. The paper follows the DMAIC methodology to investigate defects and root causes, and provides a solution to reduce/eliminate these defects. The analysis employing Six Sigma and DMAIC indicates that the design of casting spoon and its material influence the amount of defective pistons produced. In particular, the why-why analysis and two sample t-Test are combined to statistically determine the correlation of the casting spoon design and its material with defects as well as to define their optimum values needed to reduce/eliminate the defects. As a result, a reduction of scrap percentage from 9.9% to 5% was achieved, which helped the studied organization to reduce its Defects Per Million Opportunities (DPMO) from 99,000 to 50,000 and thus improve its Sigma level from 2.86 to 3.2. Also, the process yield was improved from 90.1% to 95% and a saving of 52 lakh/year was obtained.

Parametric optimization, especially in machining of non-ferrous alloys seems to be quite rare and needs an immediate attention because of its associated downstream financial and non-financial losses. This book tries to fill the gap and presents an optimization problem of commonly used Al-7020 Alloy. Principles of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) have been implemented through Minitab software to bring necessary multi-response optimization, while turning on a CNC turner. The present study focuses on to enhance Material Removal Rate (MRR) while simultaneously reducing the Surface Roughness (Ra), during turning of Al-alloy. Such opposite natured response optimization is much difficult to achieve, particularly when uncoated carbide tip has been used as a cutting tool. Intensive literature survey helps to pin point parameters like; Cutting Speed, Feed Rate and Depth of Cut as a most critical to machining parameters, as far as effective and efficient optimization of selected responses are concerned. All these control-parameters are directly or inversely related to each other. If the depth of cut is increased MRR increases at the same time we get poor surface finish. Increase in the cutting speed has positive impact on both material removal rate and surface finish. Shortlisted parameters are conflicting, so we have to optimize these for further enhancement of the overall turning performance. At last, the optimized results are verified by using ANOVA as a statistical tool. This book provides quite rare Case-study of multi-response optimization (while non-ferrous CNC turning) to practioners, machinists and SME owners appropriately.
