Description Identify film process related issues which meet the following criteria: Result from an issue inherent to a manufacturing process and requiring a technical solution to address this issue (for example: poor peel strengths are currently an issue inherent to our process, an operator failing to after-treat a roll is on the other hand not a process problem requiring a technical solution). Correction of this issue will result in: Prevention of loss of current business (customer complaint); Clearing obstacles and allowing for new business growth.; Substantial cost savings to Kaneka (although it may not be a technical issue for Kaneka or our customers). Upon identifying process issues will work with the team (which will likely include both the technical service team as well as plant operations personnel) to accomplish the following: Identify root cause. Propose and implement a corrective action. Establish a reproduce-able documented process which will then be transferred fully to manufacturing responsibility.
