  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering ((LNME))

Abstract

There is no doubt that the world-class manufacturing offers a vast variety of economic development opportunities and plays a vital role in rapid economic changes, productivity improvement, and international competitiveness enhancement for developing countries. In this paper, a WCM methodology has been applied to tea packing process to minimize the defects occurred in the current process. It consists of various quality control tools such as Pareto analysis, 5W + 1H analysis, brainstorming, why-why analysis. After implementation of this methodology, a better control over the process has been obtained. Detailed analysis of root cause results into the permanent solution to the problem which reduces defects and improves profit of the company.
