Dust extractor solution

Abstract: The following report conducted with the collaboration of the University of Halmstad and HGFrubber company (Halmstad).The focus on the project is eliminating the dust particles from the inner surface of the EPDM basedrubber module.As a part of improving knowledge about the quality and surface finishing and understanding thematerial’s characteristics. This project initiated in February 2018 and end date was set to August2018.The methodology used in this project is based on the Six-Sigma tools which is widely appreciatedglobally to obtain the Zero-defect production.The implementations of this method and other tools are efficient and beneficial to reduce thedefects in the production without compromising the initial quality of the product.This thesis resulted in a quality improvement approach for eliminating the dust using methods suchas Six-Sigma and 5 why’s.
