Scrap plastic thrown away
Leftover plastic is molded again at the first two presses, and the plant is still far short of its goal.
- Status
- Going well
| What happened | The first two grinders arrived and now cut the leftover plastic into flakes beside their presses. The flakes go back into the same job by scoop, not yet by weight. |
| Why | The grinders arrived on the supplier's new date and were running the next afternoon. |
| Since last week | Last week's issue, the late grinders, is resolved: both arrived and now grind at their presses. |
| How to keep it up | Keep both grinders running every shift, and weigh the flakes into each box of new resin. |
