  27. Gantt Chart

  28. Concept 1 Continuous Motion Leak Tester Station 1: Assembly Station 2: Leak and Label Testing Station 3: Removal from Station

  29. Project Definition: Implement lean manufacturing techniques to streamline the cardiotomy reservoir assembly process, more specifically the leak test station, by creating a stand alone apparatus to match or exceed the necessary cycle time of the area as well as assist assembly of the device and check for the presence of relevant parts via electric sensors. Concept Selection All Concepts were compared to the wants and constraints and the best fitting concept was then selected. Concepts were then modified through discussions with the Terumo team and the final concept was selected.

  30. Concept 2 Dual Pneumatic Stroke Leak Tester This concept uses two fixtures, which will move by means of pneumatics, and the two fixtures will be out of phase to cut back on lag time.

  31. Proximity Sensors • 3 proximity sensors will be necessary to check which fixture is in the workstation, either the SX-10,18,25 or the reservoir only system. • PLC will take data from these sensors to activate correct sensors and actuators.

  32. Other Electronics and Pneumatics Considerations • A modular PLC has been chosen that has expandability in regards to input and output modules • System will also require at least five solenoid valves to differentiate between actuators for different products • Valves will be controlled by PLC

  33. Concept 3 Dual Stationary Leak Tester This Concept uses two stationary stands to hold and secure the Oxygenator during assembly and testing.

  34. Concept 4 Dual Angled Stationary Leak Tester • Uses gravity to hold HE-OX into place during assembly. • Stationary stand simplifies machine during testing.

  35. Time Line of Process

  36. Wants and Constraints: • Needs • Unit must be safe for the operator to use • Less work for operator • Faster production cycle time • Allow for different size reservoir • Able to attach the HE-OX to the reservoir • Create a holder which will not scratch or damage the product • Assemble so parts are in correct position for packaging • Use machine parts that can be used in a clean room environment • Intuitive to use • Indicator of missing relevant parts • Perform the leak test • Accessible for maintenance work • Change over for different size reservoir time is less than five minutes • Completion of project by early December • Wants • Extremely simple to use • Appeasing to the eye • Improve evacuator machine leak test time • Comfortable to use • Thermo isolator attached before assembly of the HE-OX to the reservoir • Even smaller floor area

  37. Benchmarking and Metrics

  38. Concept Selection

  39. Customer Wants

  40. PLC Flow Chart Operator places reservoir into machine. Operator places HE-OX onto reservoir and machine Operator places connector ring onto HE-OX/Reservoir assembly Operator operates connecting ring clamp to finish assembly Operator starts machine PLC checks Safety Light Curtain for no breaks Go/No-Go PLC looks for fixture (SX-10,18,25) GO PLC activates correct sensors and actuators based on previous step NO GO: Machine Stop Actuators move correct sensors and plugs into position. Sensors check for 3 labels and 2 plugs PLC receives data from sensors and Vacuum Check PLC logic determines if oxygenator passed or failed Air is evacuated from reservoir for leak check Pass: Green light is displayed Fail: Red Light plus Fault indicator on screen Operator removes oxygenator and moves it to next process table Operator removes oxygenator and places it on product fail table

  41. Adjustable Table • The table height should adjust to different sized operators. • Crank • Pneumatic Cylinders and Wedges • Adjusting Feet • Polypropylene Base Housed in Nickel-Plated Steel • Adjustable to a maximum of 6 inches • Supports the weight of the table • Our final desired working table height is 40 – 46 inches C=6

  42. ERGONOMICS • Repetitive process: • 2-3 cycles/min • 8 hour work day • Occupational Safety and Health Administration guidelines: • Elbow height is the desired working height for a standing process • 5th percentile of women’s elbow height= 36 inches • 95th percentile of men’s elbow height= 49 inches

  43. Venus Port Support • What if the Venus Port is out of Place? • Design to catch the port if close • If not close the reservoir will not fit Venus Port

  44. Sensors • One stationary sensor embedded in the reservoir cradle that will sense for middle label. • Two 90 degree sensors on each side to check for side labels (one sensor on each side for each reservoir type) • Sensors for smaller SX-10 will be on actuators.

  45. Plug Actuators • Pneumatic slide table for Reservoir Blood Out Port • Also needs two compact linear actuators to adjust between two reservoir sizes. • Combination of slide table and standard linear actuators to block off Vent Port • One standard linear actuator to block off each of the ports on the Venus Inlet.

  46. Sensors Continued… • One stationary 90 Degree sensor to sense for plug on HE-OX blood-in port • One sensor to check for presence of connecting ring • Three light beam sensors to check for plugs on HE-OX blood-out port • Sensor detects plug presence if light beam is broken.

  47. Path Forward • Order the necessary parts • Contract machinist to build our parts • Start the Assembly of the ordered parts • Assemble the workstation • Begin testing • Sensors • Actuators • Leak Tester • Parts Tester • PLC Programming • Frame • Completed Table

  48. Testing • HE-OX and Reservoir Support Fit Test • Assure the proper fit of all units into workstation • Pneumatics and Actuator Testing • Assure no entanglement/interference between actuators/sensors and product part • Assure leak test is calibrated properly • Sensor Test • Assure sensors are properly calibrated and can detect a “bad” unit • Test Safety Feature of Workstation • Light Curtain • Ergonomic constraints • Final Testing • Assure all subsystems interact correctly • Verify all metrics are met (Operator Lag Time)
