One of the
fundamental quality philosophies of ISO 9001 Quality Management System Standard
certification is “improvement” approach. All organizations, aiming at quality
products and quality systems, can expand their customer networks and ensure
customer loyalty only as long as they constantly improve themselves.
Improvement of quality leads to increase in productivity, it decreases in
production costs and sales prices, thus increasing competitiveness in local and
global markets could be reached. In this study, an increase in productivity
with an automation cell installation is shown in a plastic and metal injection
factory which produces accessories in furniture sector. This fully automatic
PLC controlled assembly cell provides high quality assemble of shelf supports
and fixing parts. In addition to labor and energy savings, it has contributed
to the increase in productivity with shorter injection times achieved by
reducing raw material quantities through part design modifications realized
within this study.
