 TOOL :   Visualization

 Challenge & Selection 

 I work as a bodywork quality engineer at an automobile assembly company . The factory where I   work has a low percentage of automation and the welding processes are manual by operators .   Because of this there are many quality problems associated with poor welding application . We have   resorted to all kinds of strategies to find root causes , we have changed machines , installed aids in   the stalls and nothing worked . At that time , we realized that we were not really understanding the   needs of welders for them to apply welding well . They also did not understand the reasons why we   made so many changes in the factory , there was no effective communication . At that time , we   decided to use the visualization tool . As we saw in the first week of the course , this tool allows us to   activate different areas of the brain to understand information differently . 

 Application 

 To better understand the difficulties and problems of the operators , we decided to create   personalized meeting spaces . We formed groups of 4 workers together with 2 engineers from our   quality problem solving team . The first step in the meetings was to ensure that we all understood   the quality defects that we had in the same way , for this we used visual tools such as photos of the   defects , videos showing incorrectly applied welding beads and some cartoons that showed the basic   rules to follow . The second step in the meeting was the opposite situation , now the operators taught   us visually in the workplaces the difficulties they had in doing their job well , each worker went to   his post , carried out the operation and taught us his problems so that together we could find a   solution . Using visual language , it was easier to understand the problems . We tried to apply these   solutions quickly to experiment and obtain the changes we needed . 

 Insight & Approach 

 That was the best strategy we could have used . With visualization we really understood where our   problems were coming from and the workers understood the basic rules for executing their duties .   After 2 weeks of holding these meetings we had already detected the positions where quality   defects and their root causes were generated . Using the same work teams , we generated alternative   solutions for these problems and implemented some while production was stopped . Some solutions   were successful on the first attempt , for others it was necessary to iterate until optimal solutions 

 were found . This exercise showed us the great power of visual tools to truly understand people 's   needs and get to the root cause of problems . At this time , we have already removed more than half   of the quality defects that we had before using the tool . 

 Now in the other areas of the factory they have started to use this technique and I am sure that they   will also have excellent results .
