HOW WE CREATE STABLE PROCESSES

Statistical process control (SPS) is the application of statistical methods for monitoring and controlling processes. We use CPK to control our manufacturing process. A high CPK value indicates a stable process.

Our customers want us to achieve CPK 1.33. This simply means that 99.9937% of our items will be manufactured within set tolerances (provided the process is stable).

The photo shows one of our monitors in production. The list is real-time for the properties that currently have the lowest CPK value for manufactured items (a range between CPK 1.6 to 7.0)

With an outcome like this, we and our customers can be confident that our manufacturing process is stable.

We are happy to tell, that we have phased out pure cutting-oil in our production. The only cutting fluid we use, is water-based emulsion. This is a result of a strategic decision made back in 2018, which now is implemented as we sold our transfer machines Hydromat. Considering our significant environmental aspects, we are satisfied with the improved impact for the environment.
