Six Sigma Lean Manufacturing
Engineer Bill Smith introduced Six Sigma while working at Motorola in 1986. It was popularized when magnate Jack Welch made it central to General Electric’s strategy in the 1990s.
A Six Sigma process is one in which 99.99966% of all opportunities to produce some feature of a part are statistically expected to be free of defects.
Six Sigma lean manufacturing strategies improve output quality by identifying and removing the causes of defects. It uses a set of quality management methods and a special infrastructure of people within a company who are experts in these methods. Each Six Sigma project carried out within an organization follows a defined sequence of steps and has specific value targets.
At Vinyl Technology, our commitment to Six Sigma lean manufacturing principles is integral to our operations. Since 2014, we have implemented Six Sigma, lean manufacturing, and Kaizen methodologies to improve operations.
Vinyl Technology uses the standard deviation and error management practices of Six Sigma in all spheres of work. We primarily use it to eliminate waste and improve the manufacturing process’s workflow.
Our quality assurance team includes Six Sigma-certified Green and Black Belts for a comprehensive approach to quality throughout the value chain.
This expertise allows us to systematically identify and eliminate waste, streamline processes, and enhance product quality throughout Six Sigma lean manufacturing.
By integrating Six Sigma’s data-driven strategies with lean manufacturing’s focus on waste reduction, we have significantly improved efficiency and customer satisfaction. This approach enables us to deliver high-quality products across various industries, including aerospace, defense, commercial, and medical sectors.
Our dedication to these Six Sigma lean manufacturing methodologies underscores our mission to provide reliable, efficient, and high-quality solutions to our clients.
