- Abstract
The article presents the application of selected quality engineering methods for solving a problem with product quality in the production process of plastic bags. Defects present in the product were identified and hierarchized by the number of defects in the total production volume. Next, using the Ishikawa diagram, the main causes for the occurrence of the most significant defect, i.e. "foil sticking together" were identified. The scale of the problem for the various causes was determined using FMEA, corrective and preventive measures were proposed and their effectiveness estimated. Thanks to the analysis it was possible to take actions which lead to a decrease in the number of faulty products and introducing preventive measures to reduce the risk of problems occurring in the future.
