The Yield Line Nobody Budgeted For
Per-job yield against theoretical surfaced a scrap class nobody had priced — cutting it paid for the programme inside the quarter.
What was actually broken
Yield was a monthly average that hid which jobs leaked; operators knew the crease-heavy coils were problematic but nobody could prove it before the line ran them.
The system we shipped
We instrumented yield per slit programme with scrap-by-reason photographs, rated by operator and machine, so kaizen points at causes — not hunches.
What came out of it
- Yield vs theoretical per job and per coil family
- Scrap reason codes with linked photographic evidence
- Machine and operator yield tables for weekly reviews
