You shouldn’t have to inspect what you expect; meaning, shop owners should expect high quality performance throughout the shop, but shouldn’t have to regularly look over their staff’s shoulders to ensure that happens. Avoiding the need to micromanage employees requires implementing sets of quality standard operating procedures (SOPs) that are identified as the most efficient steps for producing work in every department every day, says John Spoto, MSO key account manager for 3M.
Spoto discusses a step-by-step process you can use to create thoughtful, organized and reliable SOPs for each of your business activities.
Standard operating procedures can serve as benchmarks for performance reviews, training aids, or in the case of quality standards, a starting point for improvement. You will find the following tips helpful when writing standard operating procedures. Always have a specific reader in mind. Applied Mechanics And Machine Dynamics - Applied Mechanics Department, L. College, Morbi; Applied Mechanics Engineer - Applied Mechanics Laboratory, Department of Industrial Engineering; Applied Mechanics Theatre Company - Applied Mechanics Theatre Company; Applied Mechanics V2 (1905) - Applied Mechanics and Machines by A. Ghosh and A.K.Malik. The company should also be capable of providing any training necessary to operate each machine safely. Most will do so for free and on site. People skills are paramount in this business and a caring helpful personality as well as a love for your job are prerequisites when starting an auto repair shop the right way.
Creating SOPs provides opportunity to strategically analyze and improve every business operation. It’s a chance to assess current processes and procedures, identify inefficient operations causing bottlenecks, and develop a thorough plan to carry out daily procedures the most efficient way possible. SOPs create consistency throughout the organization by generating a standardized approach to all business activities.
Be thoughtful when creating your SOPs. There isn’t always a “one-size-fits-all” approach. The best production-based SOPs, for example, could vary from shop to shop based on work volume, employees, job descriptions, equipment or shop layout. Every SOP has to follow a process that will deliver consistent efficiency and cycle time, without redos or comebacks, based on the unique factors of your facility.
There are resources available that shop owners can lean on for assistance. Certain vendors can provide operators with SOP examples and templates. To help get you started, here’s a look at several steps to write useful SOPs for any operation at your shop:Machine Shop Course (earist Sop)the Mechanic Training
Step #1: Focus on one at a time. Select one specific procedure to focus on and standardize to avoid implementing too much change at once. Look for processes that are hindering workflow to know where to start. If your shop doesn’t currently have any SOPs in place, the front office is the best place to approach first. That’s where cycle time begins.Machine Shop Course (earist Sop)the Mechanic Certification
Step #2: Assess your current procedure. Outline every action your shop takes to produce a particular process. Physically go through the procedure and highlight each step from beginning to end.
Step #3: Look for faults. Among each noted step, identify the specific actions that are working and not working, and make notes where you see room for improvement. Look for things that are being missed within the process, causing inefficiencies, or generating unnecessary problems.
Step #4: Create solutions. Identify solutions to fix any problematic details that exist within a process. Explain the new strategies to employees, and test the new process to determine whether it appropriately addresses the issue.
Step #5: Get employee feedback. Shop owners should initially write SOPs based on their own thoughts, but can’t forget to tap employees for insight. Ask for their perspective on changes you propose, and whether they see any steps necessary to add or eliminate.
Step #6: Write the Plan. Write down each specific action that you found proves to produce work the most efficient way possible. Create a step-by-step set of instructions that anybody within the organization can follow.
Step #7: Highlight the key information. The SOP should walk employees through the first to last stage of the process, and outline expectations for the final outcome, but keep them concise. SOPs that are too long tend to get confusing and employees have trouble tracking the instructions. Condense the SOP as much as possible into a list of must-have steps.
Step #8: Be concise. SOPs should be quickly and easily read and understood by employees. Keep the wording as short as possible for each specific step. The shorter the better. SOPs should never be longer than one page.
Step #9: Include graphics. Augment each written step with an image, picture or diagram. Graphics help illustrate certain points that can be too confusing or wordy with written explanations.
Step #10: Make them visible. Every employee should have access to the SOPs. Post them on a wall in a centralized location, and any other prominent areas of your facility. 22 Jun Machine Shop SafetyPosted at 09:32h in Safety Manual, Safety Topics, Tailgate Safety, Tailgate Safety Meetings, Toolbox Talks
In a machine shop, metals and composites are cut and shaped into finished products using hand tools and machines such as saws, lathes, drills, and grinders. Common injuries in machine shops include debris in the eye, cuts, and caught/crush machine injuries.Machine Shop Course (earist Sop)the Mechanic Apprenticeship
Choose proper personal protective equipment (PPE) for the machine shop. Wear safety glasses at all times in the shop. At any time, debris may fly out of a machine and into your eye. Consider a face shield when you are working up close with grinding and cutting job tasks. Wear comfortable shoes with a non-slip sole. Consider toe reinforcement if you work with heavy objects. Earplugs protect your hearing in a noisy machining environment.Machine Shop Course (earist Sop)the Mechanic Tools
Choose gloves depending on your job task. Use proper gloves when you handle stock with sharp edges and hand-cut sharp items. Don’t wear gloves when you are operating machinery. The machine can pull in a loose glove AND your hand/arm. While you operate machines, wear close-fitting clothing, tie back long hair, and remove your jewelry.
Get training in your job tasks and follow safe work procedures. Learn about the machines you use. Know where the moving, rotating, and cutting parts are. Know which machines are operated manually and which could start automatically by computer control. Know where your hands are at all times. It is important that the machine is guarding by device, distance or the stock itself. Use push sticks, not your hands, to feed stock materials. Never reach into an operating machine. Don’t leave a machine running unattended. Follow proper machine guarding techniques.Machine Shop Course (earist Sop)the Mechanic Equipment
Operate machines according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Follow machine feed rates; don’t force materials into or pull them through faster than the machine can process them. Ensure that all guards and interlock safety devices are installed and properly positioned. Inspect machining tools each time you use them. Before you perform maintenance or clear a jam, turn the machine off and wait until the parts have stopped motion. Use proper lockout/blockout procedures before you begin adjustments, maintenance, or clear jams.
Good shop and task lighting help you see your work materials and moving machine parts clearly. Firmly secure materials that will be drilled or punched to prevent them from slipping or spinning on the machine. Remove keys, chucks, tools, and shavings/trimmings before starting machines so they don’t get propelled through the air.
Practice good housekeeping to prevent fires and falls. Don’t use compressed air to clean up; it can blow debris into machines and makes the shavings airborne. Shavings can be hot and sharp; sweep up with a brush and dustpan or a wooden scraper.
Machined materials and machines must be lubricated and cooled. In addition, solvents are used to clean parts after they are made. Know the properties of the chemicals you work with by reading the Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
