What is 5S Control in practice? How does it work and what are its benefits? Let's answer the latter question right away. The implementation of 5S Control free solutions suite is the way to reduce number of errors and cases that negatively affect the production.
So, let’s take PVC windows production as an example.
The machine at a plant may occasionally make mistakes, and that is why every fifth time the result is checked. 5S Control constantly monitors accuracy and precision, checking against pre-set parameters. If anything goes wrong, the manager will be notified immediately.
Machining in general is a risky environment for the employee. 5S Control ensures that the worker does not forget to wear personal protective equipment, notifying/warning if necessary.
At this stage the "human factor" often shows up and the employee accidentally misses one of the required operations. 5S Control tracks the actual number of seam cleaning operations performed. In practice, this data is checked against the process data for frame bonding. If the totals do not match, 5S Control informs about a deviation from the norm. This prevents the frame with an uncleaned seam from going further down the production chain. Thus the defect product will never reach the customer. The notification system for missed operations can be configured individually and can be set up easily by the user.
5S Control makes sure that employees are not distracted from their duties or spend time chatting or scrolling through their smartphone.
