Analysis of the Current Status of Medical Equipment Micro Screws Production Process
2026,08,17
1. Overview of Traditional Production Process
A typical
Medical Equipment Micro Screws production process includes: product demand analysis → mold design → material procurement → processing and manufacturing → assembly and debugging → trial molding and verification → mass production.
This linear process often suffers from numerous efficiency bottlenecks in actual operation, such as repeated design modifications, long processing waiting times, and insufficient assembly precision.
2. Identification of Major Efficiency Bottlenecks
Value Stream Mapping (VSM) analysis reveals that approximately 60% of the time in Medical Equipment
Micro Screws production is spent on non-value-adding activities, mainly including:
Rework due to design changes (approximately 15%)
Processing equipment waiting time (approximately 20%)
Adjustments and repairs during assembly (approximately 15%)
Repeated debugging after failed trial molding (approximately 10%)
These non-value-adding activities not only prolong the production cycle but also increase the waste of manpower and materials.
