Track: Undergraduate Student Paper Competition

Abstract

Sport Glove Indonesia is a glove manufacturing company chosen for the study case in the implementation of lean manufacturing approach. The aim is to increase Process Cycle Efficiency (PCE) by reducing waste. This research focuses on epic cutter style gloves which have a fairly large production percentage in January 2024. Value Stream Mapping (VSM), Fishbone Diagram and Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) were used to identify waste and prepare recommendations for appropriate improvement proposals to overcome the problem. The results of the VSM analysis show that embellishment and final inspection as well as the sewing department are needed to be evaluated. Apart from that, it is known that the most dominant waste that occurs and has the greatest potential to hinder the production process is defects with a percentage of 23.13%. According to the RPN value from FMEA analysis, it shows that the root causes are operators who are not focused, as well as machines that often experience problems and tools that are worn out. Then, improvement proposals are designed to reduce and eliminate waste. According to the analysis, after some improvements have been made the PCE value increased by 3.91%, from 46.94% to 50.84%.
