• Resumen

  • This paper analyses a new screw torque traceability control procedure designed for an operation in a car audio workstation. First the detection score at a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) indicated which process improvement were needed. On the sequence, data was collected to evaluate performance indicators. Finally, specific actions were executed based on the improvement plan. As result, the FMEA detection score improved from 7 to 3, the run rate increased from 12 to 16 products/h and defects caused by improper screwing were eliminated. This research contributes to disseminate a practical application of a screw torque traceability control.
