Note: This root cause analysis (RCA) is from real-time scenarios that happened in industries during the tenure of two or three decades ago. These articles will help you to improve your troubleshooting skills and knowledge.
Poor bagging scales availabilities: 3 Nos. of scales for filling 50 Kg NPK bags + 1 standby and two for Urea Bagging +1 standby broke down so often that their availabilities were < 30%.
No bulk storage silo forced plant stoppages and enormous production loss.
The author found and systematically eliminated root causes are:
The above is a very short and oversimplified version. For a complete discussion please consult the Author’s articles on this topic.
