2. INDUSTRIAL ENVIROMENT
Starting from the time when I first went in on my reporting day until I complete
15 weeks of my industrial training, I felt Brady Penang is the organization where
employees can feel maximum satisfaction in reference to the environment. Brady
Penang provides better workplace and essential facilities to the employees in order to
offer the most ideal environment to all employees. Brady Penang has enhanced their
work area as well as employees productivity with the implementation of 5S concept.
The training enables me to experience the real industry workplace environment and
working process under the company integrated business complex. From the direct
involvement I am now able to familiarize and have the clear idea about the real
working world that I will enter after my graduation.

2.1. Adaptation and Adjustment to Industry


On my very first day at Brady Penang, I can felt my nervousness and worries.
I reported for my internship to Human Resource Supervisor, Miss Koay Guat
Lay which becomes the first employee I built up my impression here. Soon after
several procedures, I met my supervisor, Mr. Lee Saymoon. I was placed in
engineering office. At that time, I can tell that my level of tense and uneasy
increase when I found that I will be surrounded by engineers and senior staffs
during my training. However, thanks to their kindness and friendly attitude, I
would not feel the difference. On first day, my supervisor took me to the
production line and explained about the production and activity in this company.
He also explained about certain tasks and project that I will carried on my
training. At that time, I am really worries and anxious. It’s took me a week to
cope with my environment and training scope. During my placement I had the
practical work experience under professional supervision. My supervisor treated
me as his real assistant. I was capable to contribute my ideas and insights in his
works. At the same time, he provided me with productive and stimulating
learning environment. I try to apply what I have learned in the lecture class to
actual work setting.
Although I was assigned at Engineering Department, my jobs sometimes

4
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
required me to move to production department, warehouse and other parts of
organizations. Hence, I got plenty of chance to meet a lot of employees here and
developed good relationship with them. The training has improved my ability in
interacting with others people such as peers and superior. It is fun to deal with
this people, especially when they were willing to help and explain to me about
thing that I didn’t understand. My tasks and projects during internship involved
interaction and communication with superior, others co-workers and operators. I
need to exchange words with them in order to obtained data and information for
my tasks. At Brady Penang, most of the employees are Chinese and Malay. I
used Malay language to interact with them because their level of understanding
in English is quite low. As a result, I am able to obtain necessary information for
my projects. In spite of that, I also communicate in English with other engineers
and professional staffs. The enforcement of English language in the working
environment has improved both my spoken and written in English. After a few
weeks, I am able to create good relationship with others workers. They treated
me really well as I am a part of them and not as a trainee student. We are able to
communicate effectively and chat sometimes. From my view, the workers here
are really friendly and nice to each others as well as create a good environment to
enjoy my training here. During the training period I always try to be nice to
everyone around me. However sometime how we behave, interact or
communicate may not be liked or misunderstood by some people. This
misunderstanding can create conflict and affect our training quality. Sometime
the conflict are not cause by us, but were trapped between the already exist
conflict among the company workers. To face with this situation I always try to
be neutral without defending or be a part of any side.
The environment at Brady Penang is obviously different from the university
surroundings. To adjust with multilevel of workers at Brady Penang, I spent
some of my times to chat with them about their personal live and activity. From
that, I able to know about them deeply and treated them differ from each others
base on their personality. I also learned more about company and employees
rules and regulations. My status as internship student doesn’t give me advantages

5
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
to handle company rules carelessly and sloppily. I had to follow all rules during
my training period. At here, I had to punch my card as the other workers. So, I
have to be punctual and well concern about my time. I also had to follow dress
code stated by company. Luckily, at here we can wear casual clothes rather than
formal suit although we stay in office. Getting to know what its like to work in
the real industry have taught me how to conduct myself properly in an industrial
environment. I am able to improve my time management, more punctual in work
and meeting report deadline. I also leaned how to wear appropriate attire to work
and manage my appearance well. Although I don’t have opportunities to lead any
working group throughout the training, however I am able to gain some useful
leadership insight by observing how some of the company superiors lead their
subordinate. From my observation, most of the company superiors applied
autocracy, coherent and straight style of leadership.
Brady Penang has implemented 5S concept at its facility and working
environment. The goal of 5S is to create and maintain workplace organization,
improve productivity, enable visual management and provide the foundation for
implementing other Lean tools. Each employee at this company must follow the
rules of 5S during their working hours. As a trainee, I also implement 5S concept
in my jobs. With the concepts of 5S, I able to manage my working area tidy and
well organize. Thus, it makes me more comfortable to complete my tasks and
improve my productivity. In addition, this concept taught me to be more
organizing and take good care with my jobs and surroundings.

2.2. Practice of Occupational Safety and Health Environment


Brady Penang is very concern about safety and health at the organization and
during working hours. Brady had developed a program for facilities, safety and
environment. The program consists of a Global Policy Manual, Global
Engineering Standards, and a site program scoring tool known as the Critical
Program Elements Checklist (CPE). Brady has established these standards
defining the minimum practices to control risk, employee injury, reduce waste
and reduce cost globally. Brady Penang has a contact and a health and safety

committee. This committee is responsible about environment and safety plan,
procedures and emergency action plan that are appropriate at the company. Each
employee will be receiving training regarding to the programs plans and
procedures appropriate to their job functions. They will also be required to
comply with all procedure and plans relevance to the facility and job functions.
Safety and health environmental goals generally are about fire safety, evacuation
plan, injuries and accidents, hazard management and electrical equipment.
Brady Penang also has rules on clothing and personal protective equipment
especially at production and warehouse. Personal protective equipments such as
safety glasses, safety shoes and safety jackets must be worn at all designated area
and all appropriate site safety policies must be followed. For machine operators,
it is compulsory for them to wear a safety boots while for others employees, they
have to wear safety sandals when be at production department.

For machine operator, the also must undergoes certain training before able to run
machines at converting line. The reason is to prevent injuries and improve
productivity of the operators. There are different rules and conditions to operate
machines. All machine operators ought to obey the rules and never trying to go
beyond the rules.
Besides, Brady Penang also develops the safety and health committee among
the employees. The objectives of this committee are to train all employees about
the practices of safety and health environment at company and prevent any

injuries or accidents to occur. This committee also involve in fire fighting
system. It has responsible to give the employees enough information about fire
fighting and some training. Brady Penang also implements ABL intelligent
system. This system is use for monitoring fire system at the organization. This
system helps the company to manage the fire system more productive and
efficient.
Brady Penang also has a standard system to manage hazardous and harmful
chemical at the facility to avoid any injuries. All chemicals must be kept in fire
proof cabinet and storage. Cap of the chemical container must be properly closed
and covered to avoid leakage and generating chemical fumes.

3. INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE
My position as an internship employee in the Engineering Department involved a
variety of test-related tasks in continuous improvement process, lean manufacturing,
and technical staff skill optimization with exposure to production process as well as
the business side of an engineering role. More specifically, continuous improvement
process involves coming up with solutions to improve productivity, minimize rejects
and reduce inspection time. Throughout the whole weeks of my industrial training, I
have experience real industrial working condition which developed and improved
my functional and soft skills in several aspects.
On my first day, I began with a tour at production department. I was given
explanations by the technician about production department and main activity at
Brady Penang. He also explained to me about each line at production department.
Instead of that, I also have been taken to warehouse to learn about some activities at
that area. My first week at Brady Penang was spent by learning a lot of new things
and about company facilities, products, process and others. I spent my time to be
familiar with materials used in production, the machines and processes as well as the
organization. The jobs and assignment that I carried out during my industrial training
will be described below;

3.1. Material Study


During my first week of industrial training, I spent most of time to study and
learn about materials that used during production at Brady Penang. This
company involve in production of die cutting products and labels. Type of
material usually used in the production is liner, adhesive, foam, film, mesh, felt,
poron and so on. The materials used usually bought from vendor in log roll
shape. Those material will undergoes slitting process at warehouse depending on
the customer order before sending to production line. These materials will be
used during production process for die cut parts, label products and silk screen
parts. The material also uses during to produce sample for part ordered by the
customers. Types of materials used at Brady Penang can be summarizing as

3.2. Time Study of Slitting Process


The first task that I have to handle during my training is time study of slitting
process. This task required me to go to warehouse. I conduct this assignment for
duration of two weeks. The objective of time study is to gather data and record
time taken during slitting process of log materials. This job is assignment by Mr.
Lee Yeong Liang, the senior process engineer at my department. Slitting process
is a process to cut log material to small and desire size. My jobs is to record the
time taken for loading material into slitting machine, time for setup the machine,
and time taken by machine to slit the rolls. Beside that, I also had to measure the
outer diameter and slit width of the materials. The machine that used during
slitting process is ALS machine. This machine is operated by Mr. Erman, the
machine operator at warehouse. During this task, I had to communicate with Mr.
Erman in order to obtained information about the material type and descriptions.
He also explained to me about the slitting process and how to handle the ALS
machine. Usually the materials will be slit after receiving the work order from
planner.

Picture 3.1.1: ALS Machine

The log rolls material will not be slit every time. So, while handle this jobs, I also
had to cooperate with Miss Aishah. She gave me a called every 10 minutes
before they started to slit the log material. So, I don’t have to wait at warehouse
for entire day as I still have other works to do. This job teaches me to be
cooperative with other employees in order to complete a job successfully and
learn to manage my times carefully.

3.3. RDC-M7 Machine Data Update
During my first month of industrial training, I was assigned to update setup
data for RDC-M7 machine at die-cutting line. The machine was operated by Mr.
Safuan. I have to communicate with him in order to get my data about the
machines. He is very nice person and volunteered to teach me more about the
machine. My job is quite easy for this task. All I have to do to bring up to date
the setup data for products that M7 machine runs everyday. M7 machine is most
important machine at die-cutting line. This machine was used to produce a lot of
die cut parts ordered from customers. The machine produces different parts
everyday. So, each day, the responsible machine operator has to set up the
machine following the schedule obtained from planner. My job is to fill up the
setup time, setup length and speed the machine required to run each parts. Since
the data was already recorded by the operators, I don’t have to do time study to
get the setup time from this machine. I only took the data from machine operator
everyday to update my information. This task gives me opportunities to learn
more about RDC-M7 machine. The machine operator has taught me how to setup
the machine before production run. Although I am not able to setup the machine
by myself, I am glad they sincerely taught me about the machine as I able to
improve my knowledge about the production process.

3.4. Inspection Process
During my internship period, I also experienced to do inspection for one of
die cut product produce by Brady Penang. However, I only did inspection
process for two days. The other trainees and I had to do some inspection after
being requested by Mr. Gee Joh Peng, the production supervisor. The main
reason for me to do this job is due to urgent shipment to Thailand and short of
inspection operators for this part. After did some inspection, I finally realize that
is quite difficult to check the defects from the parts. As inexperienced person, I
took long time to finish inspect a roll compared to the experienced operator.
Although I felt that doing some inspection process is not related to mechanical
engineering, I glad I got chance to come across with this job. I am able to
enhance my knowledge about defects that occur during production run of this
part. I also learn more about defects criteria of certain parts and their
implications to the products and production flow.

3.5. WD Improvement Projects
I was assigned to involve in an improvement project of Western Digital 1mm
Gasket foam products (WD 1mm). I handled this job under my supervisor.
Through this project, I got chance to learn more about lean manufacturing tools
that applied in production floor. This task required me to improve the
productivity at WD 1mm assembly area. During this project, I obtained some
help for the operators and technicians. At first, I had to learn about defects
criteria that always found from the parts. I borrowed sample rejects file from the
production to help in my study. I also asked the operator to get more information
and data about the defects. After that, I use the lean manufacturing tools to
analyze the data. After analyze the defects, I did time study at assembly area. My
objective is to create a standard work for WD 1mm assembly process. It took me
about one month to complete this task. I spend most of my time at assembly area
to do some observation and study about the process flow. At last, I am able to
come with a solution even though it only slightly improves the productivity.

3.5. Total Productive Maintenance Project


I also was assigned a project by Mr. Gee Joh Peng, the from production
department. This time I involve in total productive maintenance project. Total
productive maintainace is an approach to maximize the effectiveness of the
plant’s equipments in the area of uptime, speed and quality. My task in this
project is to produce the checksheet for each machine at production area. I was
helped by Mr. Jamil, the specialist technician and Mr. Supian, the silkscreen
supervisor. I required about 2 weeks to complete the checksheet and 2 weeks to
get approval from management. In this project, I had to develop an effective
worksheet for daily maintenance of each machine. Firstly, I had to take picture
from each machine and the machine parts that must undergo maintenance
process everyday. Then, I created the worksheet for each machine. I got some
reference from Brady Thailand maintainace checksheet. However, the sheet is in
Thailand language and I had to translate the document first. Thus, I am able to
complete this task successfully and praised by my supervisor.

3.6. 5S Standard Documentation


Besides some projects at production area, I also involved in documentation
process. This time, I have to provide a standard for 5S implementation at the
company. The goal of 5S is to create and maintain workplace organization,
improve productivity, enable visual management, and provide the foundation for
implementing other lean tools. The benefits of 5S standard are:
1. Reduce number of injuries and lost times accidents.
2. Reduce the number of using incorrect parts or tools and remove variability in
processes.
3. Eliminate wasted motion and time traveling and looking for tools and
materials.
4. Provide visual controls that rapidly identify abnormalities in the process for
which action can be taken
5. Build essential disciplines within workforce to embrace lean culture
The main components of 5S are to define what is necessary and unnecessary,
organize the necessary items so that they can be used and returned easily,

19

cleaning floors, equipments in all areas of the facility, maintaining and improving
the standards and achieving the discipline or habit of properly maintaining the
correct 5S procedures. In this assignment, I followed the sample document of 5S
standard from Brady Thailand. The document that I got was using Thailand
language and I had to translate the document first. After that, I borrowed camera
from engineer department and took picture for 5S standard. Before I taking the
picture, there are some procedure that I should apply. First of all, I decided the
area that I will apply the 5S procedure. After that, I distinguished between
necessary and unnecessary item at the respective area. I decided where all items
should be so that organization is easy to understand. Then I choose proper
storage methods that minimize the inventory and promote visual management. I
visually indicated locations, so items in use can be returned and missing items
can easily identify. Afterward, I took picture of each area and equipments. Next;
I provided the document of 5S standard for this company. I only took a week
complete my job since I just followed the sample document that I got earlier and
it is not difficult to organize the area.

3.7. Label Products Assembly Flow Improvements
In addition, my main activity at production area was the project for label
products assembly flow improvements. I took about two months to carry this
project. This project required me to have knowledge about assembly area and
label product that manufacture by this company. I also had to learn about the
process, flow and defects that encounter during inspection process. I spent most
of my time doing some observation and study at the assembly area. I applied
most of lean manufacturing tools that I learn at university while handle this
project.

3.8. Test Paper Developments


I had to develop the test paper about assembly area. This test paper was
developed in order to examine and analysis the operator skills and knowledge on
assembly area. The main problem while handle this project is my lack of
knowledge on assembly area. So, it becomes difficult for me to develop the
question for the test paper. I did some reference from previous documents and
files about the process and flow on assembly area. After 2 weeks, I able to
complete my tasks.

3.9. Design and AutoCAD


I not really involve in design during my industrial training period. However, I
got a chance to learn about AutoCAD. I was provided about a week to obtain and
improve my skill in AutoCAD as well as design. During this learning, I was

23
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
given the hardcopy of customer part drawing. My work is to redesign each part.
At first, I took the opportunity to learn about the basic in AutoCAD. After
mastering some basic skills, I tried to redesign the drawing examples that I got
from my supervisor. He also taught me how to use this software.

3.10. Laser Machine


During my industrial training, I was given an opportunity to learn about laser
machine. At Brady Penang, laser machine is used to produce sample parts of
each order. Laser machine also was used to produced small volume of parts that
ordered by customer. I was taught by Mr. Zulhelmi, the technician leader how to
operate the machine and produce a sample parts. The most important parameters
that must be concerned when operate this machine are the machine speed and
power. The power and speed will be setup depending on the material used and
type of cuts required. Laser machine can produce kiss cut and through cut. In my
opinion, this machine is easy to handle but is hard to produce a sample of parts
using laser machine. It required a lot of experiences and knowledge about the
materials and parts before set the parameters.
Laser cutters work by focusing a beam of light, or laser, on a pinpointed site
on an object in order to slice through it rather than using a solid object, like a
blade, to slice through the material. A computer system with vector graphical
software, AutoCAD is also necessary. Instructions are communicated to the laser
cutter via the software which deciphers design geometry to numerical CNC
machine code. A laser can also take input from drawings developed with the aid
of computer-aided design (CAD) software. The configurations of the machine
are characterized based on the way the laser beam will come in contact with the
material that will be cut. There are three main setups that act on two axes, the X
and the Y. The first configuration is referred to as moving material. In this setup,
the object that will be sliced is put beneath the cutter head. The second
configuration is the hybrid laser. The table and the cutter head move in opposite
axes, giving the best stability of the beam's pathway. The third configuration is
referred to as the flying optic configuration, where the cutting head is the part of

the machine that is in motion. The object being cut is static and this type of
configuration produces very clean work. Its speed is also the quickest among the
three configurations. The flying optic system also does not require clamping
down the material being cut, aiding in the speed of the workflow. Loading and
unloading can take up valuable production time but the speed of cutting with a
laser should make up for this time. Not having to clamp down the materials to be
cut in some instances also saves time. Also take into account whether workers
will have to keep turning the laser cutter on and off or can keep it on
continuously. Workers may have to turn off the power to take materials out of the
machine and temporarily stop cutting. With the costs invested in laser cutting
machines, sufficient upkeep can ensure that they operate optimally and safely. If
the machine is not running optimally, bad cuts can be made. Process control such
as checking cutting nozzles, lenses and other optics should be conducted
regularly. Conducting frequent inspections on alignment can prevent many future
problems. Sources of air can affect focal lenses of the laser cutter. Lens clarity is
extremely important. Operators can look at a focal lens and tell if it is dirty as
well as by checking it with a polarizer. Another option is to replace a lens or
clean it with fine tissue and alcohol. Laser optical components are in the category
of consumables. Maintenance of chiller units is also important. They should be
run before using the laser cutter. A laser cutter will not be as fast if it has not been
maintained. Replaceable parts should also be kept available if they are needed.
Exhaust systems also need to be maintained. Laser cutter training should include
hands-on and classroom training. It should include basic usage of the laser cutter
such as how to start and shut down the machine, operation and programming of
the machine, upkeep and maintenance as well as safety. Other training involves
how to create drawings and load them into the laser machine, scaling, and
rotation. File usage and code as well as use of databases and laser tables and
metrics need to be learned. CAD and computers need to be comprehended to use
a laser cutter. One should understand how to measure thicknesses of materials in
relation to whether the machine can handle cutting them. A user should also be
able to read blueprints. Users need to be educated in quality control and

geometric tolerance to know the how precise the laser cutter can get. This
machine is really challenged my minds and skills. After three days learning and
producing part sample, I had to take a laser test. My task for this test is to make a
sample part using laser machine that will be accepted by quality assurance
department. The parts that I must produce consist of five layers, two different
type of cuts and three different of materials. After two trials, I am able to make
an acceptable part for this sample.

3.11. Micro-Vu 2D Measuring Machine
Micro-Vu 2D measuring machine is use to determine and check the
measurements of parts that produce from die cutting machines. Through my
industrial training period, I was given the opportunity to operate this machine.
This machine was located at QA equipment room. I use this machine to indicate
the radius and diameter for parts produce by M7 machines. My job is to measure
about 300 parts per roll. This task seems really simple but it took me a whole day
to measure a roll. The most important thing I have to consider when using this
machine is I must be precise and accurate.

3.12. Pull Kanban System


The last project that I involved during my training period was pull kanban
system projects. The team project consists of my supervisor as a leader, person
from production, planner, warehouse and customer services. My job is to assist
them through the whole project. This project is to develop and implement pull
kanban system for western digital 3.45mm products. During this project, I got
chance to join the meeting and got some experience how the industrial meeting
was conducted. I assisted my supervisor to create a flow and visual simulation
for pull kanban system. Then, I developed the kanban board for this system. This
job is really difficult since the project involve production and engineering
department, as well as warehouse, planner, and customer services. I had to
collect some information from each department to complete my tasks. I also had
to do some study about kanban and value stream mapping system. I glad that my
supervisor helped and taught me to complete my assignment for this projects.

4. INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS

4.1. WD 1mm Improvements Process


One of the main projects that I involve during my industrial training period is
WD 1mm Improvements Process. This project is about to making improvements
for WD 1mm gasket foam production process flow. The main objectives are:
1. to improve productivity of process flow
2. to reduce manufacturing time and cost
3. to improve work flow efficiency
4. improve profit margin for the products
The manufacturing process starts from slitting process at warehouse. The log raw
materials were slitted into desired size of stated in work order. The materials
required in this manufacturing these products are foam, adhesive, liner and slug
puller. After slitting process, the raw materials will be sent to die cutting line.
The parts will undergo die cut process at RDC M7 machine. Next, the parts will
be deslugged before inspection process. After inspection process, WD 1mm
gasket foam part will be sent to Quality Assurance department for QA inspection
before packaging. However, I only involve in process improvements at
inspection line. Before making improvements or coming with some solutions, I
must identify the problems occur at inspection line first. I did some observation
at inspection line to gather some view and data about the process. Then, I used
5why analysis to identify the problems and root causes. 5 Whys Analysis is a
problem solving technique that allows you to get at the root cause of a problem
fairly quickly. It was made popular as part of the Toyota Production System
(1970's). Application of the strategy involves taking any problem and asking
"Why - what caused this problem?”. By repeatedly asking the question "Why"
(five is a good rule), it is possible to peel away the layers of symptoms to identify
the root cause of a problem. Very often the first reason for a problem will lead to
another question and then to another. The benefits of the 5 Whys analysis are;
* Help identify the root cause of a problem.
* Determine the relationship between different root causes of a problem.

28
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
* One of the simplest tools; easy to complete without statistical analysis
To complete the analysis, first of all, I write down the specific problem. Writing
the issue helps me formalize the problem and describe it completely. Then I
asked why the problem happens and write the answer down below the problem. I
repeated asking why until I come to the root causes of the problems. After did
certain analysis, I finalize the major problems that occur during inspection
process. The problems are:
1. The operators has lack of experience and skills
2. The operators don’t follow the standard work
3. The process flow consists of waste motion
4. The parts have a lot of defects.
To overcome all this problems, I had to do some study and research at production
line. I study about criteria and categories of rejects that found from the parts. The
criteria of rejects that occur are misalignment, tearing liner, wrong thickness, tear
part, uncut, hole and scratch. I gather some data about the rejects rate and
analyze them. Then, I did pareto analysis about the defects. Pareto analysis is a
very simple technique that helps you to choose the most effective changes to
make. It uses the Pareto principle – the idea that by doing 20% of work you can
generate 80% of the advantage of doing the entire job. Pareto analysis is a formal
technique for finding the changes that will give the biggest benefits. It is useful
where many possible courses of action are competing for attention. Seven steps
to identifying the important causes using Pareto Analysis:
1. Form a table listing the causes and their frequency as a percentage.
2. Arrange the rows in the decreasing order of importance of the causes, i.e. the
most important cause first.
3. Add a cumulative percentage column to the table.
4. Plot with causes on x-axis and cumulative percentage on y-axis.
5. Join the above points to form a curve.
6. Plot (on the same graph) a bar graph with causes on x-axis and percent
frequency on y-axis.

29

7. Draw a line at 80% on y-axis parallel to x-axis. Then drop the line at the
point of intersection with the curve on x-axis. This point on the x-axis
separates the important causes on the left and less important causes on the
right.

This is a Pareto diagram using sample data showing the relative frequency of
number of defects for WD products. It enables me to see what 20% of cases are
causing 80% of the problems and where efforts should be focused to achieve the
greatest improvement. The value of the Pareto Principle for me is that it reminds
me to focus on the 20% of things that matter. Of the things I do during my
project, only 20% are really important. Those 20% produce 80% of my results. I
identify and focus on those things first, but I don't totally ignore the remaining
80% of causes.
After analyze the defects, I found most of the defects occur during
machining process. So, I follow up the problem to my supervisor as he in
charge on machining operation improvements.

I continued my project by doing time study at inspection area. Time study is a


study of each of the steps in an operational or production procedure and the time
consumed by them, for the purpose of devising methods of increasing efficiency
or productivity of workers. The reason for me to do time study is to develop a
standard work for inspection process. In standard work, each step in the process
should be defined and must be performed repeatedly in the same manner.
Variations in the process will create quality problems requiring costly rework or
scrap. Standard Work will define the most efficient methods to produce product
using available equipment, people, and material. The Standard Work depicts the

31
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
key process points, operator procedures, production sequence, safety issues, and
quality checks. Finally, Standard Work must identify the amount and location of
WIP inventory in the cell. Developing Standard Work is one of the more difficult
Lean disciplines. Once we start to implement flow and pull systems the workers
can get caught up in the dynamic changes and get behind in documenting those
changes. To do time study observation, I spent about 3 days at inspection line to
collect enough information and data. I recorded the inspection process flow for
each operator. I also took some picture from the inspection process.

From the video recorded, I collect the time taken for each motion and fill in
the time study observation form. After complete the time study observation form,
I analyze the data and calculate the average time to complete a cycle. After that, I
produce the standard work for current inspection process.

From data, the current inspection process required about 1500 hours to produce
1.5million parts per month. So, the operator needed for this process is about 9
operators. Hence, I modified the current process and produce a new standard
work for inspection process. From new standard work, the time required for
inspection process is reducing to 750 hours per month. The time for inspection
process is been reduced. So, the process only needs about 4.5 operators. We can
reduce number of operators by half as well as save cost about USD 1536 per
months
In this project, I applied a lot of lean manufacturing tool that I learned in
university. So, I can improve my understanding about lean manufacturing and
process improvements. This project also let me to experience the real tasks and
problems that always occurred in industries and learn hoe to solve and overcome
the problems as well as improve the productivity. I really satisfied with the
outcome of the project since I handle it by myself.

4.2. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
I also involved in total productive maintenance projects. Total Productive
Maintenance (TPM) is a maintenance program concept. Philosophically, TPM
resembles Total Quality Management (TQM) in several aspects, such as total
commitment to the program by upper level management is required, employees
must be empowered to initiate corrective action, and a long range outlook must
be accepted as TPM may take a year or more to implement and is an on-going
process. Changes in employee mind-set toward their job responsibilities must
take place as well. TPM brings maintenance into focus as a necessary and vitally
important part of the business. It is no longer regarded as a non-profit activity.
Down time for maintenance is scheduled as a part of the manufacturing day and,
in some cases, as an integral part of the manufacturing process. It is no longer
simply squeezed in whenever there is a break in material flow. The goal is to
hold emergency and unscheduled maintenance to a minimum. To begin applying
TPM concepts to plant maintenance activities, the entire work force must first be
convinced that upper level management is committed to the program. The first
step in this effort is to either hire or appoint a TPM coordinator. It is the
responsibility of the coordinator to sell the TPM concepts to the work force
through an educational program. To do a thorough job of educating and
convincing the work force that TPM is just not another "program of the month,"
will take time, perhaps a year or more.
Once the coordinator is convinced that the work force is sold on the TPM
program and that they understand it and its implications, the first study and
action teams are formed. These teams are usually made up of people who directly
have an impact on the problem being addressed. Operators, maintenance
personnel, shift supervisors, schedulers, and upper management might all be
included on a team. Each person becomes a "stakeholder" in the process and is
encouraged to do his or her best to contribute to the success of the team effort.
Usually, the TPM coordinator heads the teams until others become familiar with
the process and natural team leaders emerge. The action teams are charged with
the responsibility of pinpointing problem areas, detailing a course of corrective

35
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
action, and initiating the corrective process. Recognizing problems and initiating
solutions may not come easily for some team members. They will not have had
experiences in other plants where they had opportunities to see how things could
be done differently. In well run TPM programs, team members often visit
cooperating plants to observe and compare TPM methods, techniques, and to
observe work in progress. This comparative process is part of an overall
measurement technique called "benchmarking" and is one of the greatest assets
of the TPM program.
The teams are encouraged to start on small problems and keep meticulous
records of their progress. Successful completion of the team's initial work is
always recognized by management. Publicity of the program and its results are
one of the secrets of making the program a success. Once the teams are familiar
with the TPM process and have experienced success with a small problem,
problems of ever increasing importance and complexity are addressed.
In this project, I was assist by two technicians which are Mr. Jamil and Mr.
Supian, both from production department. My task for this project is to produce a
daily maintenance worksheet for machines at converting line and silkscreen
room. The main objective is to implement TPM program for converting line in
order to achieve:
1. Zero defects, zero breakdown, and zero accidents in production floor
2. Involve all level of people especially machine operators in the proactive
maintenance jobs.
3. Form different teams to establish a standard operation instruction to reduce
defects and practice self-maintenance.
Benefits directly can be obtained from this project are:
1. Increase productivity & Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)
2. Reduction in customer complaints.
3. Reduction in manufacturing costs.
4. Reduced accidents.
This project also increase and higher the level confidence among the employees,
provide a clean, neat and attractive workplace, develop cultivate team spirit

among the cross functional team, create new concept deployment in the
production floor, sharing knowledge and experience and let machine operators
have a ownership of keep a good maintenance of his own machine.
To involve in this project, I must learn about the machine first. At converting
line there are about 10 machines and at silkscreen room there are about 7
machines. Machine that involve in this project can be describe as below:

Converting Line Machine Silkscreen Room Machine


RDC M7 SS1

KC25 SS3
SINO Oven
PRECO UV

SMAG

After learning some basic information about the machines, I learned about
the maintenance procedure for each machine. I identified the causes of
contamination and hard access areas. The action taken is to eliminate the causes
and find solution on the hard access areas in order to reduce the cleaning as well
as inspection time. Then I took picture of the machines and their maintenance
parts. These pictures are used to develop the machine maintenance checksheet
for each machine. I developed standard for cleaning, lubrication and inspection.
After completing the checksheet, I had some discussion with my supervisor.
There some problems in my checksheet and not enough information. I re-edit the
checksheet and after a meeting, my checksheet got an approval and is used at
production floor.

This project gave me more information about machine maintenance.


Although I don’t involve in maintenance process, I still obtained some
experience on how to prevent machine breakdown and manage the maintenance
process and procedure. The machine maintenance worksheet on the work station
help the operators to understand how it works, what can caused it fail and the
impact on the products if it fail.

4.3. Label Products Assembly Process Flow Improvement
Another major that involve during my internship is Label Products Assembly
Process Flow Improvements. This project is only slightly difference from my
first project about WD improvements. My objective in this project is to improve
the process flow at assembly area of label products as well reduce the inspection
time of the products. The main problems that I faced during handle this project
are this line consist too much different type of label products and low volume
products. Thus, it is hard for me to develop a standard work for each product.
After spending my time at this area, I found some major problems that faced by
operators:
1. Time consuming process when operator need to
- change core before inspection
- transfer parts from big roll to small roll
- check for orientation
- manual rewinding process
2. No standardized work for the process flow
3. No schedule for each operator.
I also did some study about the reject of label products. For this product, the part
is rejected or accepted depending on their class. Label products can be classed
into six different classes which are:
1. Class 1: part that displayed on surface which are constantly visible in the
fully assembled products and within end customer view and required the
highest visual cosmetic quality
2. Class 2: part that applied in surface that is normally not visible during the
normal use by end user.
3. Class 3: Parts that are applied on the surface that is not visible during the
normal use but only visible when the end user changing the covers, batteries
or SIM card
4. Class 4: part that are applied on the inner surface where it is not visible to
end user at the final products
5. Class 5: label use for packaging

Besides doing the observation at assembly area, I also study about defects rate
and some documents about assembly area that I got from people in production. I
finalize the standard work flow for assembly area as below:
Take the bin from

Picture 4.3.2: Machine at label product assembly area

During conducting this project, I applied a lot of lean manufacturing tool that
I learned before. So, my understanding about lean manufacturing and process
improvements has been developed and improved. This project also let me to
experience the real tasks and problems that always occurred in industries and
learn how to solve and overcome the problems as well as improve the
productivity. After a month, I come with some solution:

41
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
1. Standardize all the work flow and process
2. Core changing before inspection is been eliminated
3. Use rewinding machine for all parts
4. Schedule the operator jobs and tasks
However, my fourth solution is rejected by my supervisor because of certain
problems. It is difficult to schedule the operators since the line inspect various
type of parts and the order will be update daily. It will become useless if we tried
to schedule the parts for each operator. When my proposal is rejected, I felt a bit
frustrated and try to find another solutions. Nevertheless, I can’t provide a good
solution because the time limitation and not enough data from the production.

4.4. Pull Kanban Systems


My last project during my training is Pull Kanban System project. Different with
my previous projects, this project was a team project. This project involved staff
from engineering, production, warehouse, planner and customer services department.
The team consists of six members. Each member was assigned their on tasks. I was
assigned to develop the kanban board and system for the product. The objective is to
develop kanban system for WD 3.45mm foam products.
Pull kanban is a method of controlling the flow of production through the factory
based on a customer’s demand. Pull Systems control the flow of resources in a
production process by replacing only what has been consumed. They are customer
order-driven production schedules based on actual demand and consumption rather
than forecasting. Implementing Pull Systems can help to eliminate waste in handling,
storing, and getting the product to the customer. Pull Systems are an excellent tool to
use in the areas where cellular or flow manufacturing can not be achieved. The goals
of pull kanban system are:
1. to obtained streamlined or one piece flow
2. acquired perfect quality
3. produce one unit at a time
4. near zero lead time
5. close match between production planner and order schedule
6. only planned and necessary inventory will be carried.
To develop the kanban system, I learned and study about Value Stream Mapping
(VSM) of the products. VSM is a snapshot of all action both value added and non
value added required to bring a products or services through the main material and
information flow. It is a graphical representation that uses a common mapping
language and provided basis and direction for identifying improvement
opportunities.
This project also gave me the opportunities to involve in a meeting with the
superior. The first meeting was held to determine the scope of the kanban system, set
the minimum level of safety stock at each area and confirm the shipment volume per

43
Internship report
-najieyuyaan2010-
najieyuyaan@gmail.com
week. After the meeting, I was assigned by supervisor to produce a simulation about
the kanban system for the next meeting. I tried my best to complete my assignment. I
collect some data and information from each area before developing the kanban
system. The simulation will be used for presentation as another team members is not
really understand the concept of full kanban system. I created a simulation using a
board and card. Then, I presented it with my supervisor in the second meeting. After
the agreement with all team members, I was assigned to develop the kanban board at
production area.
The board is a visual control. The cards or stickers with work orders (Stories,
MMFs, Tasks, and Features) on a typical agile board are not signal cards. A Kanban
Board shows the current status of all the tasks to be done within this iteration. This
Kanban Board helps the team understand how they are doing well as well as what to
do next and makes the team self-directing. The board consists of six different
columns which are slitting process, converting, QA inspection, packaging,
warehouse and hub. Each column will indicate the critical stock, trigger stock and
safe stock. The critical is represented by red color, yellow for trigger stock and green
for safe stock. When the kanban card is at green level, the employees can stop the
process.
I am happy to complete this board. Although I only gave little contribution I this
projects, I satisfied with my job. From this project, I am able to understand more
about Kanban system and learned how to implement it in industries.

5. SUMMARY
In conclusion, there ware many thing that I have experience and learned during the
15 weeks of my Industrial Training at Brady Technology Sdn. Bhd. The whole training
period was very interesting, instructive and challenging. Through this training I was able
to gain new insights and more comprehensive understanding about the real industry
working condition and practice. The internship placement also has provided me the
opportunities to develop and improve my soft and functional skills. All of this valuable
experience and knowledge that I have gained were not only acquired through the direct
involvement in task given but also through other aspect of the training such as work
observation, interaction with colleagues, superior, and others third party related to the
company. From what I have undergone, I am hundred percent agree that the industrial
training program have achieve its entire primary objective. It’s also the best ways to
prepare student in facing the real working life. As a result of the program now I am more
confident to enter the employment world and build my future career. Besides learning
something which relate to the subject I learn, I also been given an opportunity to learn
about the product, work as a team workers, communicate with the engineers and
supervisors in engineering department.
I recommend the company to create more structured training program. I understand
that the person responsible to supervise the practical student is already busy with their
work burden. However I believe that they can spend small portion of their time to plan
more comprehensive, structured and organized training for the practical student. The
supervisor in charge should list and arrange the training task which will be performed by
the trainee. A training schedule also should be made in order to optimize the training
period. In arranging and assigning the training task, the supervisor also should try to fill
the training period with task that significant in developing the trainee knowledge, skills
and experience for its future career. In overall I am quite satisfied with the faculty
effort in making the program perform smooth and successfully. However there were
some part that has to be improving, such as the information and preference channel
related to the industrial training program, which now not quite satisfying. All parties
have to gather their responsibility in order to make industrial training program become
