Case Study Toledo Custom Manufacturing: Quality Control

Toledo Custom Manufacturing (TCM), located in Toledo,

Ohio, makes metal parts to customer specifications.

They have a variety of machines including lathes,

numerically controlled (NC) machines, grinders and drilling

machines. They can make any metal parts that

require use of these machines. TCM employs 65 workers,

supervisors, and managers in its facility.

TCM is very customer-oriented and prides itself on

quality control. They take a Total Quality Management

systems approach including use of control charts, ISO

9000 certification, employee training, and teams for

continuous improvement of quality. TCM also selects its

suppliers based on their ability to provide quality metal

blanks and parts that are purchased.

THE PRECISE STEEL ROD ORDER

TCM recently received an order to machine 5000 push

rods to be used in the production of hydraulic cylinders.

The push rod is a precise steel rod that runs inside of a

hydraulic cylinder to build pressure when activated. The

push rod has very tight specifications to insure that hydraulic

leaks do not occur. The particular rod ordered is 6” long

and must be .500 inches in diameter (see Exhibit 1 for an

illustration). The specifications call for ±.005” (5 onethousands

of an inch) tolerance. Therefore all rods must be

machined to a diameter between .495” and .505” to meet

the specification and to be acceptable to the customer.

In order to meet the customer’s delivery schedule,

TCM will utilize two machines, each with its own operator.

The machines are similar, but operator 1 has more

experience than operator 2. TCM must also insure that

the supplier of blank steel rods will provide consistently

good material for machining.

QUALITY CONTROL CHARTS

In order to prepare for the order, TCM has decided to

make 30 parts on each operator-machine combination.

Each operator-machine will run samples of 5 parts and

make a total of six samples for 30 parts. Separate control

charts will then be constructed using the samples to calculate

the grand average and average range for each operator.

These averages will be used to construct an upper control

limit, center line and lower control limit for each of the

operators. Then the six samples will be compared to these

limits to see if the process is in-control or if there are outof-control

points. If the process is in-control, the operator

and machine can proceed to make good parts. Every hour

a sample of 5 will then be taken and plotted on the chart

of insure that the process is still in-control.

If either machine-operator combination is out-ofcontrol

based on the first six samples of 5 parts each, the

process will need to be fixed before proceeding. After

fixing the process another six samples of 5 parts each

will be taken to see if the process is now in control and

this is continued until a satisfactory test is completed.

The customer has asked that the final control charts

used to verify the operator-machine combinations be

forwarded to them along with the 60 parts produced by

the two machines. They also requested, that control

charts be maintained by taking hourly samples and submitted

along with future batches of the parts. In addition

to statistical process control charts, the customer would

like to receive a calculation of the process capability

) to insure that the process is capable

of meeting the specification.

The data collected from the first six samples of

5 each are shown in Exhibit 2 for operator 1–machine 1

and operator 2–machine 2. These are the samples of 30

each required to insure that both operator-machine

READING: 

Toledo Custom Manufacturing (TCM), located in Toledo, Ohio, makes metal parts to customer specifications. They have a variety of machines including lathes, numerically controlled (NC) machines, grinders and drilling machines. They can make any metal parts that require use of these machines. TCM employs 65 workers, supervisors, and managers in its facility. TCM is very customer-oriented and prides itself on quality control. They take a Total Quality Management systems approach including use of control charts, ISO 9000 certification, employee training, and teams for continuous improvement of quality. TCM also selects its suppliers based on their ability to provide quality metal blanks and parts that are purchased. THE PRECISE STEEL ROD ORDER TCM recently received an order to machine 5000 push rods to be used in the production of hydraulic cylinders. The push rod is a precise steel rod that runs inside of a hydraulic cylinder to build pressure when activated. The push rod has very tight specifications to insure that hydraulic leaks do not occur. The particular rod ordered is 6" long and must be .500 inches in diameter (see Exhibit 1 for an illustration). The specifications call for ±.005" (5 one-thousands of an inch) tolerance. Therefore all rods must be machined to a diameter between .495" and .505" to meet the specification and to be acceptable to the customer. 

EXHIBIT 1 Push rod and hydraulic cylinder illustration. In order to meet the customer’s delivery schedule, TCM will utilize two machines, each with its own operator. 

The machines are similar, but operator 1 has more experience than operator 2. TCM must also insure that the supplier of blank steel rods will provide consistently good material for machining. QUALITY CONTROL CHARTS In order to prepare for the order, TCM has decided to make 30 parts on each operator-machine combination. Each operator-machine will run samples of 5 parts and make a total of six samples for 30 parts. Separate control charts will then be constructed using the samples to calculate the grand average and average range for each operator. These averages will be used to construct an upper control limit, center line, and lower control limit for each of the operators. Then the six samples will be compared to these limits to see if the process is in-control or if there are out-of-control points. If the process is in-control, the operator and machine can proceed to make good parts. Every hour a sample of 5 will then be taken and plotted on the chart to insure that the process is still in-control. If either machine-operator combination is out-of-control based on the first six samples of 5 parts each, the process will need to be fixed before proceeding. After fixing the process another six samples of 5 parts each will be taken to see if the process is now in control and this is continued until a satisfactory test is completed. The customer has asked that the final control charts used to verify the operator-machine combinations be forwarded to them along with the 60 parts produced by the two machines. They also requested that control charts be maintained by taking hourly samples and submitted along with future batches of the parts. In addition to statistical process control charts, the customer would like to receive a calculation of the process capability index (Cp and Cpk) to insure that the process is capable of meeting the specification. The data collected from the first six samples of 5 each are shown in Exhibit 2 for operator 1–machine 1 and page 456operator 2–machine 2. These are the samples required to insure that both operator-machine processes are in control before proceeding with full production of the 5000 unit order.

Discussion Questions 

1. Calculate the control charts (UCL, CL, and LCL) for each operator-machine combination separately. Do this for both x-bar (average) and range charts. What conclusions can you draw from the charts about each operator-machine combination? 

2. What should be done based on the calculations from question 1? 

3. What is the process capability for each operator-machine combination? 

4. Can you be sure that every part produced by in-control processes will meet the specification? 

5. Identify and explain any underlying assumptions for the calculations done here.

Many weigh modules installed in beverage plants and breweries are potential breeding grounds for microbes. Our new weigh module for tank installations is optimized for fast wash-down processes and will reduce contamination risk in your production environment.

Accurate manual checkweighing.

See how one airline meal producer established a quality system to continuously monitor crucial success factors that uses METTLER TOLEDO ICS portable bench scales. The scales’ hygienic design for effective cleaning, combined with a clear, readable display for ease of use is further increasing food safety and manufacturing productivity.

Statistical quality control (SQC).

Read how a British chilled-dessert manufacturer used content control to help it meet the additional regulatory challenges that come from exporting its products. Standalone weighing terminals are providing the net-content control assurance the company desired while allowing them to create secure, optimized fill procedures.
