Production engineering
Friends,
A need to create a PRODUCTION ENGINEERING CELL in our organisation has strongly been felt. We are an in-house desiging as well as manufacturing organisation in auto ancilliary industry. Aim is to initially focus on providing a bridge between the designer and the manufacturer there by ensuring proper handing over to the latter. It is expected that there after initial teething problems will be minimal. Issues coming up during production which bear a relationship to design will also be handled by this cell.
Kindly assist by providing inputs to cover: how it can be structured, its functioning, role etc. Anything relating to it is welcome.
Regards
HS

Re: Production engineering
Dear HS,

Following points can be considered while setting up of a cell.

1. Cell should comprise of two members each from Design and Manufacturing.
2. Cell should make a check list where in Design should mention what details will be given to Manufacturing as handing over and Manufacturing should come out with what details they will be requiring to replicate the out put.
3. Final check list should be drawn and sign off from both Head of Manufacturing and Head of Design should happen.
4. All documents like Standard Operating Procedures, Critical Quality parameters, Design Calculations, Equipment/Settings requirements, Quality Checks, Flow Charts, Cost of Manufacturing (Per Unit), Utilities requirement Calculations, Design drawings if any, Log Sheet, Process Validation Details, should be part of check list.
5. Number of trial runs should be defined in the initial stage. This will be observed by the cell members.
6. Training should be part of Charge Handing over.
7. Repeatability of the out put as per the design should be established by this cell.
8. Final outcome should be minuted and this should be signed off by both Head Manufacturing and Design.
