Achieving energy management

* To reduce Amount of energy consumption and Energy cost,

*It should be managed,
by Factory total (whole factory) ---
by Process Line ---
by Facility (machine) ---
*Management in small unit (facilities)is more suitablefor improvement of energy intensitythan in large unit (factory total).

*Shown in Energy intensity.
because, it is easier to evaluate the result of operational/technical improvement comparing with before-improvement.

We can utilize " the 7 tools " for management and improvement.

Energy intensity (or energy unit consumption)

As the management of energy, "energy intensity"is widely accepted.The definition is:

Examplein a machine manufacturing factory : (Segmentation of Manufacturing Process)

How to find out matters that need improvement.
-Supplementary means to find out the matters through management
Example 1: Factor analysis < cause and effect diagram"fish bone chart">

Fact finding; Energy intensity at Heating furnace
<unit consumption>

Key points of fact finding:
* to get hold of the subject numerically
* to express the subject visually
<example: Control graph>

Narrowing down subject items for improvement

ENarrow down items to those of the greatest importance
(e.g., items that have potential for remarkable improvement).
Example: Select items by guess;
Engineers and operators who work on the shop floor all the time know what should be improved.
But, their views are not always the best.
Example: Compare numerical values;

To show in "unit consumption"is effective.

Investigation data covering a certain period of time are necessary.
Arrange the values in descending order.
Quantitative comparison makes it possible to pick out the best items.
