A:
Best Answer:
Look at the layout and physical aspects of the job and move something into line so that it is either easier or faster to do. this could be as simple as placing a coat hook or drink holder, tool holder or inspection station in the right location for someone doing the work. How is the cord packaged for storage or shipment, find a place that is in direct route for the process, another thought would be to see where traffic congests and see how you can make a way to avoid it.

A:
I to am a MFG Engineer for a cable company. Here are some pointers on what I have done to excel. i have worked hard to increase line speed without cutting into any quality. You might consider looking at the long term of new manufacturing lines, how to make them versatile so you can run more than one product on that line. Look to increase tooling life. This is always a good place to start. Tooling is expensive and is always a good place to cut costs. look at the lines that are running. Look for bottle necks in the system. Also look for down time and reason associated with that down time. If you can't cut operation cost then you might want to look at quality, how can you increase quality and lower your rejects PPM. Work with good programs like MODAPS. This will help. Don't do anything that you can not show a return on. these are just a few to start with.
