KEY H IGHLIGHTS

● ITEM:DOOR-HINGE,ADJUSTABLE-BUSHING(TEXMACO),LABIRYNTH E TC.

(HVF,AVADI),TIE R OD,(BEML),DANA E TC.

● ITEM : B FB D rum ( Honda M otors - 2 W heeler)

● COMPANY: S atellite F orging(PRESS F ORGING)

● PROBLEM : Observed lapping on the side wall of two pockets after 50 to 100 Nos. of pieces of production and centre distance (CD) between 2 - boss found oversize after trimming operation. After forging CD is found to be within tolerance range. Furthermore trimming component undergo c oining o peration t o m aintain t he C D.

● ROOT CAUSE: For lapping peg radius was found 5 MM and during trimming operation small boss i s p ushed f urther d ownward r esulting o versize o f C D.

● ACTION TAKEN : For lapping radius is increased to 8 MM from 5 MM in both peg. and to maintain t he C D w ithin t olerance l imit t he s mall b oss p rofile h eight i s i ncreased b y 0 .5 M M

● RESULT : Lapping is observed in between 3000 to 4000 Nos. of pieces. The die is further polished to maintain the Required radius and for the 2nd case CD problem avoided. Rejection reduced a nd e liminated t he c oining o peration.
