Overview
ABC Incorporated (ABC) is not achieving Six Sigma quality levels for all critical
Body-Side Sub-Assembly dimensions as requested by their customers.
Ensure that all critical body-side subassembly dimensions are within Six Sigma
quality levels of < 3.4 DPM. Cp 鰹2.0 and Cpk 鰹1.67.
 Change tonnage to > 935 to correct ASM_7Y and ASM_8Y
 Set clamp position to location 2 for ASM_9Y and ASM_10Y
 Re-machine A-pillar die to correct A_3Y and ASM_3Y
 Determined the correlation between body side and assembly dimensions.
 Evaluated the significance of Tonnage > 935 for ASM_7Y & ASM_8Y.
 Conducted a DOE for Clamp position for ASM_9Y & ASM_10Y.

Problem Statement & The Goal
ABC Incorporateds customer wants ABC to apply Six Sigma problem solving
methodology to insure that the body side subassembly is achieving Six Sigma quality
levels of less than 3.4 defects per million for all critical body side subassembly
dimensions.
ABC needs an improvement strategy that minimizes the rework costs while achieving the
desired quality objective. ABCs goal is to produce module subassemblies that meet the
customer requirements and not necessarily to insure that every individual stamped
component within the assembly meets it original print specifications  sub-system
optimizations vs. local optimization.

Resolution alternatives (based upon past experience):
1. Make adjustments to assembly process settings
2. Reduce variation of components through better control of stamping
process input variables
3. Rework stamping dies to shift component mean deviation that is off
target and causing assembly defects
Target Performance Level:
All ten critical assembly dimensions at Six Sigma quality level of  3.4 DPM.

Conclusions
 From the analysis of ASM_7Y and ASM_8Y we can conclude that:
 Setting tonnage > 935 results in ASM_7Y and ASM_8Y meeting the goal
 Analyzing ASM_9Y and ASM_10Y helps determine that:
 Setting clamp position to location 2, weld density to 1 weld every 1.33
and clamp pressure to 2000 psi helps with dimensions ASM_9Y and
ASM_10Y
 Analyzing ASM_3Y helps us conclude that:
 Re-machine A-Pillar die to move A_3Y to nominal  which could cause
BS_3Y to shift towards nominal  effectively shifting ASM_3Y to nominal

 Implement poke-yoke clamping fixture that ensures clamp is always in Position 2
 Establish control plan for ongoing monitoring of the 10 critical assembly dimensions.
 Set Tonnage to above 935 to improve ASM_7Y & ASM_8Y
 Set Clamp to Location 2 to improve ASM_9Y & ASM_10Y
