It is considered to be one of the mostreputable Indian industrial houses with market leadership in utility vehicles as well astractors in India.

    1.1. BRIEF HISTORY:

    Mahindra & Mahindra was originally incorporated in 1945 by the brothers J.C.Mahindra and K.C. Mahindra and Malik Ghulam Muhammad in Ludhiana, Punjab totrade steel. Following the Partition of India in 1947, Malik Ghulam Muhammad leftthe company and emigrated to Pakistan where he became the first finance minister ofthe new state (and later the third Governor General in 1951). In 1948, K.C. Mahindrachanged the company's name to Mahindra & Mahindra.

    Building on their expertise in the steel industry, the Mahindra brothers begantrading steel with UK suppliers. They also won a contract to manufacture Willys Jeepsin India and began producing them in 1947. By 1956, the company was listed on theBombay Stock Exchange, and by 1969 the company had entered the world market asan exporter of utility vehicles and spare parts. Like many Indian companies, Mahindraresponded to the restrictions of the Licence Raj by expanding into other industries.Mahindra & Mahindra created a tractor division in 1982 and a tech division (nowTech Mahindra) in 1986. It has continued to diversify its operations ever since throughboth joint ventures and Greenfield investments.

    By 1994, the Group had become so diverse that it undertook a fundamentalreorganization, dividing into six Strategic Business Units: Automotive; FarmEquipment; Infrastructure; Trade and Financial Services; Information Technology; andAutomotive Components (known internally as Systech). The new Managing Director,Anand Mahindra, followed this reorganization with a new logo in 2000 and thesuccessful launch of the Mahindra Scorpio (a wholly indigenously designed vehicle) in2002. Together with an overhaul in production and manufacturing methods, thesechanges helped make the company more competitive, and since then the Group'sreputation and revenues have risen noticeably. Currently, Mahindra & Mahindra isone of the 20 largest companies in India in 2009, Forbes ranked Mahindra among thetop 200 most reputable companies in the world.

    1. Spot welding:

    Spot welding is the main operation which is used in the joining parts that are madeof sheet metal in the body shop. It is used as it has lot of advantages over otherwelding processes:

    It is best process for joining of sheet metal.

    Its strength is very high may cause damage to workers and it is also gives betterworking place for operators.

    It doesn’t release any inert gas which may cause problem to the operator if hebreathes.

    Spot welding is done by welding guns which are of many types and are designed

    such that welding can be done at all inaccessible parts in the body. Each of thewelding guns has water, air and current supply. Water is used for cooling theelectrodes after spot welding is done and compressed air is used to move the pistonsuch that movable electrode applies force to the weld. The weld cycle constitutes ofthe following 4 times which can be changed when ever required by adjusting thetimer circuit.

    The weld cycle consist of 4 parts they are:

    Squeeze time:

    During this time the current doesn’t flow but the movable electrode moves f romits initial position to the position where it touches the plate to be welded. So thistime is adjusted based on the type of weld gun used in the process. For guns whichhave large arms the squeeze time is more.

    Weld time:

    In this period current passes and due to the resistance large amount of heat isproduced and both sheets melt and weld is formed. This time is adjusted on thebasis of thickness of sheets to be welded and metal to be welded. As in this plantonly 0.8mm thick sheet is used and cast steel sheet is used so it is almost constantfor all the guns.

    Hold time:

    During this period current doesn’t pass and the electrode still holds on to sheets inorder that the weld is to be cooled naturally.

    Off time:

    During this period welding process is done and electrode returns back to its initialposition.

    2. MIG Welding:

    MIG welding is done to join the parts and joints that can’t be joined by spotwelding. This process uses CO2 as inert gas and cast steel wire coated with copperis used as fillet material. This has lower strength than spot welding but it has to bedone as the parts can’t be joined by spot welding.

    3. Brazing:

    Brazing is done to join the outer parts as its finish is smoother than that of MIGwelding. In this brass is used as filler material.

    4. Nut Welding:

    Nut welding is the process of joining nuts to sheet metal by projection welding

    machine. By doing this process the bolts can be easily fitted with the help of the airgun available. This is done only in parts which are not accessible to hold the nutswhile fixing the bolts.

    5. Grinding:

    After the body is joined it is sent to metal finish line where its surface is madesmooth and fine. The first process in this line is grinding which is done to removeand dents or convexes or burrs due to spot welding and projections that haveoccurred during MIG welding or brazing. This doesn’t give a high surface finish butit makes surface clear of burrs etc.

    6. Sandering:

    Sandering is done in the areas which are inaccessible to grinding wheel or anyother process. It consists of a belt called sandering belt which moves like aconveyer with the help of compressed air. By this process surface finish obtained ishigher than that of grinding.

    7. Buffing:

    Buffing is done after grinding to make the surface finish better even after grinding.so this consist if a rotor which rotates with help of compressed air to which acircular buff paper is attached and used to do the buffing operation.

    After this process the body is sent to paint shop. This is called as a body in white.

    B) Paint shop:

    Paint shop essentially consists of pre-treatment line, electro deposition, and paintline. The pre-treatment stage is divided into 10 stages. The pre-treatment zone cleansand phosphates the metal to prepare the surface for ED-coating. Cleaning andphosphate are essential to achieve the performance requirements desired by today’send user of the product. A high quality zinc phosphate system using the immersionmethod is primarily used where steel and iron parts are to be coated.

    ED-coating is a method of painting which uses electrical current to deposit thepaint. The process works on the principle of “opposite attract”. The electro coat bathand ancillary equipment zone is where the coating is applied and the process controlequipment operations. The ED-coat bath consists of 80-90% de ionized water and 10-20% paint solids. The de-ionized water acts as the carrier for the paint solids which

    are under constant agitation. The solids consist of resin and pigment. Resin is thebackbone of the final paint film and provides corrosion protection, durability andtoughness. Pigments are used to provide colour and gloss.

    The back oven receives the parts after they exit the post rinses. The back ovencross links and cures the paint film to assure maximum performance properties. Theminimum back schedule is 20minutes with the part temperature at 375 F for most ED-coat technologies.

    Over view of paint shop:

    Step in the production process. Body shells are painted in a semi-cleanenvironment using solvent based. Shells are dipped in chemical tanks to cleanse themof any oils picked up on the panels during their manufacture in Body Shop. Oncebodies have been dipped and cleansed, they are then immersed in an anti-corrosionpaint dip called ED (Electro coat Dip).

    This 'dip' coats the entire body, both inside and outside, and is the first paintcoating it will receive. Once the 'dipped' body has been stoved in the ED oven, thebody progresses to the 'Sealing' Booth. In this booth, the body has its interior panel

    joints, floor, tailgate, hood and door edges sealed with PVC based sealant, to preventwater ingress and corrosion as the vehicle is driven on the road. Also within this zone,sound pads are added to the floor and boot to reduce road noise (standard practicein the motor industry).

    The next booth it enters is the 'Underbody' Booth. In this booth, similar to'Sealing' Booth, the body's wheel arches are sealed using the same PVC based sealant.Then apply the under seal to the under floor and wheel arches. And they apply theSGC (Stone Guard Coat) layer to the sills: this coating is designed for abrasionresistance, i.e. preventing stone chips, scuffs, etc. From here, the body proceeds intothe Undercoat Oven.

    The next zone is 'ED Sanding' booth where the body is inspected for any minorimperfections received in the ED Coat. The next zone is the 'Surfacer' Booth, wherethe body receives its second coat of paint, this being the Surfacer Coat, then into theSurfacer Oven. Next is 'Surfacer Sanding' Booth: the same as ED Sanding, this zoneinspects the body for any imperfections picked up within the Surfacer coating.

    Next comes the 'Topcoat' Booth, where the body receives its final coats ofpaint, these being Topcoat and Clear coat layers. After being stoved in the Topcoatoven, the body then enters the 'Touch-up' Booth where the body has its finalinspection for any imperfections picked up in the Topcoat process. Once the bodyleaves here, it then moves on to the PBS (Painted Body Store) above Trim and Chassisto await the next.

    FAI:

    There are three buy-off stages and one final buy-off (FAI) in Alfa assembly line.

    At each buy-off‘s, they will do vehicle overall inspection and calculate FRC (first run

    capability),FBO (first time buy-off),DPV (defect per vehicle).* FRC:- (Total number of vehicles manufactured without any defect/total

    vehicles audited)*100 * FBO:-(Total number of vehicles manufactured without any quality defects+

    TACT/total number of vehicles audited)*100

    TACT: Time assigned to complete task* DPV:-(Total number of defect per vehicle/total no of vehicles inspected)*1000

    Here they will calculate defect per vehicle (DPV) in all the Buy-off’s.

    In the final buy-off, inspection will do on overall vehicle, if any defects found, theywill rework the defect there itself.

    If the defect is big they will put the vehicle in hold and clear the defect in that dayonly.

    Vehicle will be tagged withFAI Ok sticker when the vehicle is defect less. Then thevehicle will move to PDI (pre delivery inspection).

    PDI:

    At PDI the vehicles that are Ok at FAI are inspected further.

    Two inspection are carried out at PDI that is

    1. Dynamic test &2. Static test

    Dynamic test:

    After static test has done, the vehicle is driven 5 rounds around PDI. During the ridethe vehicle is inspected for noise, defects and rework the defect there itself.

    In dynamic test also includes

    1. shower test2. road test3. smoke test4. roll on test(testing of engine and transaxle oil leaks)

    Static test is done while the vehicle is stationary. In static test overall vehicleinspection and under body inspection is done.

    After rework and the vehicle without any defect is tagged with PDI ok tag and thevehicle is moved to RFI yard.

    RFI:

    Ready for inspection means the vehicle having Ok tag in PDI10% of vehicles are takento inspection.

    The inspection of RFI carried to check the warranty concerns & field concerns whichwere received from field by driving the vehicle few more kilometers.

    At that time, if any quality concern is observed, they will audit the remaining90% ofvehicle’s in yard and rectify all the problems (if found) with the help of productionmanpower.

    After the RFI inspection vehicle will send to RFD yard for dispatching.And here there is another inspection called nova-c (new overall vehicle audit).

    The audit will be based on the customer point of view.

    The selected vehicle will run on road by creating an atmosphere of physicalconditions by putting a load on the auto in the road.

    If any concern is found they will give the feedback to concern department in chargefor ICA (immediate corrective action) &

    PCA (permanent corrective action) for concern closing

    3.3. INTRODUCTION - UV ASSEMBLY LINE:

    An assembly line is a manufacturing process sometimes called progressiveassembly) in which parts (fuel tank, engine, gearbox, muffler, propeller shafts etc) areadded to a product (Chassis) and body is mounted onto the chassis in a sequentialmanner using optimally planned logistics to create a finished product (UV vehicles).Assembly lines are designed for a sequential organization of workers, tools ormachines, and parts. The motion of workers is minimized to the extent possible. Allparts or assemblies are handled either by conveyors or motorized vehicles such asforklifts, or gravity, with no manual trucking. Heavy lifting is done by machines suchas overhead cranesor forklifts. Each worker typically performs one simple operation.

    Principles of assembly are shown below:

    Place the tools and the men of the operation so that each component partshall travel the least possible distance while in the process of finishing.

    Use work slides or some other form of carrier so that when a workmancompletes his operation, he drops the part always in the same place--which

    place must always be the most convenient place to his hand--and if possiblehave gravity carry the part to the next workman for his operation.

    Use sliding assembling lines by which the parts to be assembled aredelivered at convenient distances.

    4.4. SELF CERTIFICATION:

    Self-Certification is a process in which an operation is certified by the operator by self-inspecting the task done by him.

    This approach of inspection helps to control the quality of products by helping to fixthe source of defects immediately after they are detected and it is useful for anyfactory that want to improve productivity, reduce defect rates, and reduce reworkand waste.

    Self-Inspection Methods:

    1) TRAVEL CARD (CHECK SHEET): A check sheet is a structured, preparedform for collecting and analyzing data.

    2) ARROW MARK: In arrow mark method, an arrow mark is placed on parts tonotify that the part is to be placed in a specific direction.

    3) IDENTIFING MARK: In identification mark method, some identificationstickers are pasted on parts. For example, LH sticker is pasted for partsassembling in left side of vehicle.

    From the above methods we are choosing check sheet method.

    4.5. CHECK SHEET

    A check sheet is a structured, prepared form for collecting and analyzing data.

    In the business world, knowledge really is power and that knowledge requires datacollection.

    Check sheets are often the starting point for collecting valuable data that in turn leadsto better information, a better understanding of operations and better decisionmaking – all of which are foundational to continual improvement. Business thatunderstand the importance of improvement are business that stay competitive andcan satisfy customers.

    Check sheet simplicity is an advantage:

    The great thing aboutcheck sheets is how easy they are to create and use, as well ascustomize, change and to improve overtime. The most important thing is to startedand create a cultural of data collection.

    The is no reason to delay implementing a check sheet, as you and add to it ,achecksheet evolves over time to meet real world data needs.

    Inspection in manufacturing:

    Inspection in manufacturing is conducting inspection during production process. Thisapproach of inspection helps to control the quality of products by helping to fix thesource of defects immediately after they are detected and it is useful for any factorythat want to improve productivity, reduce defect rates, and reduce rework and waste.

    Positive impact:

    Reduce end line defects Saves time and efforts of final inspection Helps to fix the problems at the outset, and prevents common mistakes being

    made repeatedly Helps to ensure quality of products of a production line

    Steps in implementation:

    The purpose of in-line inspection is to identify problems with the system thatneed correction and also to identify earlier in the production process

    In line inspection can be implemented by line workers under the supervisionof quality control staff

    Setup pre-determined in-line inspection points to help the workers toimplement the in-line inspection

    Develop and use an in-line inspection check sheet or report to record thefrequency of each type of mistake

    Conduct training for line workers on how to conduct in-line inspection and usethe in-line inspection points

    The worker should perform their own in-line inspection before they start theirnormal task

    If there are any significant mistakes in line, use devices such as light marks orflags to high light the problems in the line for a quick response

    Quality control staff should be provided with sample defects and in-lineinspectioncheck list to record the defects

    Data on the defects detected during in-line inspection should be stored andused for statistical quality control by the quality control division

    4.6. CONCLUSION:By using the check sheet process, we can eliminate the manual errors in

    Utility vehicle assembly line.

    As a result of self-certification process, we can overcome the hidden errors whileassembling the vehicle, which cannot be inspected further.
