Work instructions operators can question
Operators ask about a step, a tolerance or a fault code and get the answer from your own SOPs.
Step-by-step changeovers with the settings for the next product, so the line restarts sooner.
Changeover from part 4471 to 4480 on press 3?
Swap die D-12 for D-15, set the stroke to 85 mm and run five test parts before release.
Where is die D-15 stored?
Rack R3, position 6, in the die store next to press 1.
What do I check on the first part?
Hole positions and overall length against drawing 4480-02, then the burr height on the cut edge.
Changeovers depend on the right die, settings and checks for each product pair. The knowledge often sits with a few experienced setters, so changeovers take longer on shifts without them. Mistakes mean scrap and a delayed restart.
