Cable/Harness Testing Made Easy. In these difficult economic times it's tough enough to make money, we don't need quality problems too. Can eliminating ongoing quality problems be a source of savings? Our newsletter this month begins a series on continuous improvement of wiring, starting with measuring wiring defects. We'll continue in future months by identifying costs, considering cost effective ways to make improvements, and suggesting ways to make sure improvement efforts deliver savings. If you have any questions or comments, call us at 1-800-441-9910. Best Regards, |

| Continuous Improvement to Eliminate Wiring Errors | |
What cost-saving opportunities could there be in improving wiring quality? Do you have opportunities to save scrap/rework time and better prevent defect escapes to a downstream customer? We begin this series about continuous improvement with some suggestions on how to measure quality in wiring. Please also let us know about the metrics you have found useful to monitor wiring quality. We use First Pass Yield (FPY) as a metric at Cirris. It's easy to understand and use. You may also measure defects divided by the number of opportunities. Learn more about these measures and share your measures with us. Continuous Improvement for Cable/Harnesses |
