Gjutet med god leveransprecision!? - En studie i hur låg leveransprecision från leverantör påverkar produktionen på ITT Flygt AB
(2004) MIO920Production Management
- Abstract
- Problem discussion: The internal foundry of ITT Flygt occasionally has problems
with on-time delivery to the product workshops. This could
lead to extra costs regarding labour and stock keeping.
ITT Flygt are today unaware of the extent of these
costs.
Objectives: The main objective of the master thesis is to investigate the
effects of low delivery accuracy from the foundry to PVC. This
main objective is reached by three partial objectives: to
describe and explain the value system for small- and medium
sized pumps, to map and understand the manufacturing
process in the foundry and in PVC, and to in detail map the
machining process of oil house, impellers, and pump housing
in PVC.

Method: In the master thesis a method of qualitative character is used
but also contains a large amount of data that is treated
quantitatively.
Conclusions: The major costs at PVC caused by the foundry's low delivery
accuracy consists of the extra work that PVC personnel have to
do in order to maintain their own production. Costs emerge
both from early as well as late delivered material. Another
effect of the low delivery accuracy is that it complicates
internal improvement and inventory planning for PVC. The
authors believe that better delivery accuracy would make
essential stock reduction possible. (Less)
