Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)

20 to 22 September 2022,

In today's competitive market environment, the industry has realized the fact that servicing unreliable products is a very costly proposition. To a large extent, reliability is built into the product during the design and development phase. Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA) is an essential ingredient of reliability engineering and is a very powerful and effective technique used for improvement in the methodology used for design, assembly, materials engineering, servicing etc., for a diverse range of products and processes. FMEA can be effectively applied in case of new developments, new technologies and components/assemblies or products which have inherent problems to anticipate &am

Selection of Cutting Tools for Improving Productivity and Cost Reduction in CNC Machining Centres

20 to 21 September 2022,

Milling and hole making operations are an integral part of all metal cutting operations. While using a precision machine tool such as a CNC Machining centre for complex milling and hole making operations, selection of the right cutting tools for the operations is equally critical to producing quality machined parts. Selection of the right cutting tools can result in optimization of cycle time, reduce risks of errors in machining, manage tool costs better and result in the production of a high quality part. Keeping this in view, IMTMA is organising an online training on Selection of Cutting Tools For Improving Productivity And Cost Reduction In CNC Machining.

Lean Daily Management System

23 September 2022,

In today’s competitive Business Scenario, organizations that excel in their performance consistently survive. In order to have a sustainable business organization, one needs to develop systems that align with the goals of the organization to all functions. And all the functions should perform as per standard on a daily basis consistently. To perform daily, we need a structured approach that needs to be practiced everyday.Lean daily management system is a systematic approach to plan, perform, track and solve problems on a daily basis. The system also ensures predicting problems so that they are appropriately solved at the right time to ensure effective performance.Keeping this in view,

Surface Plating and Protection Technology

26 to 27 September 2022,

In today’s manufacturing scenario, shortage of raw material & power, meeting quality with consistency in quality norms and increasing pressure to reduce costs are the order of the day. Besides these business challenges, surface finish, an important manufacturing process contributes significantly to the costs. During finishing of parts, Surface plating techniques such as ‘Electroplating, application’ is possibly the most troubled issue. Lack of knowledge in Surface plating and protection technology leads to high rework and rejection rates in-house & as well as from outside vendors. Hence it is important to follow the right techniques to achieve surface finish of acce

Measurement System Analysis (MSA)

27 to 29 September 2022,

Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA) originated with the automotive industry is eventually becoming the defacto standard of the manufacturing industry. Just as processes that produce a product may vary, the process of obtaining accurate measurements and data may also have variations and can produce defects. MSA is a holistic approach to ensure the integrity of data used for analysis and evaluates the entire process of obtaining measurements, i.e test methods, measuring instruments, operations, procedures, software and personnel that affect the assignment of a value to a measurement and to understand the implications of the measurement error. MSA is an important element of Six Sigma methodology

CE Marking for Export Markets - Europe, North America & GCC countries

28 to 29 September 2022,

The current emphasis of 'Make in India" and thrust being on exports makes it imperative that the industries develop their skills and knowledge levels to succeed. One of the concern areas, is the “Compliance and legal requirements of the exporter and importer”, which is often neglected in the beginning by the stake holders resulting in time delay, loss, etc., To sell a product in Global market one needs to understand and comply to the relevant “Law of Land” right from the design stage to avoid any non-compliances. The manufacturer should also know the options available for conformity assessment. Cases of Manufacturers exporting products and incurring losses, owing to l

Statistical Process Control (SPC)

11 to 12 October 2022,

Today, cost reduction is the No. 1 priority for any company. SPC or statistical process control is a game changing tool for cost reduction. Applying SPC on a company’s processes provides significant insight into the process. For doing so one needs to learn SPC techniques and apply them. Data generation and analysis is key to delivering a lean manufacturing setup, thereby optimizing costs and maximizing profits to your organization. Keeping this in view, IMTMA is organizing an online training on Implementing SPC, a Game Changer for Cost Reduction.
