Unplanned mold stops
Stops on the eight molds that stop most fell to the goal this week, too soon to call it met.
- Status
- Going well
| What happened | Each of the eight molds that stop most now counts its own closings and is cleaned at a set count. Every cleaning due was done between jobs, and stops fell to 4. |
| Why | Cleaning at a set count clears the built-up plastic before a part sticks, while the mold is out of its press anyway. |
| Since last week | The last two molds left their presses and were cleaned, and every mold due at its count was cleaned between jobs. |
| How to keep it up | Read each mold's counter when it leaves its press, and clean it once it reaches its count. |
