Drawn to scale
HOLES ARE THE MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS TO REJECTION.
1% rejection corresponds to a PROBLEM IS SCOPED TO: REJECTION OF PAPER CAUSED DUE
revenue loss of Rs 50 lakh pa TO PRESENCE OF HOLES
The pet theory of the personnel in the plant was:
“Roller Number 1 is root cause”
It picks up fibre or something and leaves a hole”
Capex of Rs.2 crore would be required
to replace the roller with a larger one.
We take a systematic problem
solving approach, that uses:
• only data and no opinion
• strict logical analysis
• experimental confirmation

None of the recorded machine
parameters and none of the recorded
input parameters correlate with the
ups and downs in the rejection
percentage on the time line, when
compared for the same grade of
material.
