A south Indian auto electrical supplier was supplying starter motor yokes to an international auto electrical manufacturer. The field pole fixing holes were made by a multi spindle horizontal drilling machine. This operation was producing enormous burrs which was difficult to clean and also hazardous to the operators. It consumed nearly 90 seconds per components.
A team of three engineers worked on the project and a new system was developed to carry-out the same operation. The new operation was totally burr free, much faster (20 seconds) and occupied 25% of the floor of the horizontal drilling machine. The machine used was a general purpose machine.
