Which press is curing differently from the rest?
Which press is drifting from the recipe. How much scrap comes from compound that waited too long. How long changeovers really take, shift by shift.
Three moulders. Each one set the parameters and never recorded what actually ran.
Cure time, temperature and pressure decide whether a moulded part performs. The recipe is fixed. The execution varies.
Parameters are set on the press and trusted. They are rarely recorded against the batch, so when a lot fails testing there is nothing to compare against a lot that passed.
Cure parameters, compound batch and operator attach to the lot as it is moulded.
Mixed compound has a shelf life. Left too long it processes differently, and the scorch shows up as scrap at moulding.
Mixing dates are written on the batch. Nobody enforces which one gets used first, so newer compound at the front gets used while older sits behind it.
Mix date travels with the compound, and the oldest usable batch is the obvious pick.
Changing a mould is unavoidable. How long the press stands during the change is not.
Changeovers are known to be slow. Nobody times them individually, so a change that takes four hours on one shift and ninety minutes on another looks the same in the monthly numbers.
Each changeover is timed automatically from the stage marks the operator already makes.
The recipe is the same everywhere. What actually happened is not.
