Case Study on RMG Washing/Dyeing Machines
Machine Issues
- Sealing and Leakage Issues
- Temperature Control Problems
- Chemical Dispensing Issues
- Fabric feeding and take-up
- Drainage Problems
- Uneven Dyeing
- Overloading or Improper Loading
- Equipment Imbalance and Misalignment
Challenges
- Frequent breakdowns disrupt production
schedules, leading to delays in fulfilling
orders. - The current maintenance strategy is
reactive, resulting in higher repair costs
and extended downtime during
breakdowns. - Production Optimization aims to
maximize the efficiency of washing and
dyeing processes for improved
production output.
Objectives
