OPERATION & PRODUCTION IMPROVEMENT TRAINING

Today’s Mill Manager needs to develop a clear vision of the mill’s future and then put in place the resources to get it done. Quad’s Operation & production Improvement Training starts with using a computerized simulation model to benchmark your current operation.

Objectives:

Identify how to improve the operation to get the most out of your existing equipment
Quantify the effect of any operating improvements or equipment changes
Develop an implementation plan that includes Operator Training
Develop a mill improvement plan that ensures capital spending yields the desired ROI

Production Improvement Opportunities:

People – are the crews working effectively and consistently. Is there too much variation between crews?
Process – are the pass design & setup sheets optimized to maximize TPH, yield & utilization?
Technology – is the equipment functioning properly (delays) & would revamping or upgrading selected equipment increase productivity. When changes are made, where will the production bottleneck move to?
