Continuous Improvements in Die-Casting Using a Six Simga Approach

The paper deals with application of Six Sigma methodology in continuous improvement of aluminium die-casting process. An Six Sigma improvement project is initiated in aluminium die-casting process with aim to reduce machining scrap from average of 4.12% to less than 2%, and material scrap from 11.43% to less then 4% in average., Parameters with major influence on scrap level are defined in cause-and-effect diagram, analyzed, improved where necessary, and put under control using Six Sigma tools and methods. Although, initial project goals are not completely met, major die casting process improvements are made, resulting in significance savings.
