Abstract<br />

The purpose of this study was to decrease the proportion of<br />

all problems from the process in dyeing by applying the Failure Mode<br />

Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) at a<br />

sample textile factory, where fabric manufacturing was its main<br />

activity. The factory has problems of poor quality dyed fabrics: 7.49%<br />

of the fabrics had to be mended because they were stain, crease and<br />

washing. The processes of fabrics were studied. Then, brainstorming<br />

was performed to find causes and results of fabrics’ poor quality. A<br />

cause and effect diagram was presented, followed by the FMEA for the<br />

production processes and an AHP for decision-making. These<br />

techniques were employed to find significant causes related to problems<br />

of production processes in order to find preventive measures for the<br />

mentioned problems. Production process improvement was evaluated<br />

using techniques of linear regression and correlation. Results were the<br />

percentage of mended fabrics of the factory that was reduced from<br />

7.49% to 4.76%, (target 5%). The improvement of the process was<br />

decreased waste from 11,440 kilograms to 77,160 kilograms, saving<br />

approximately 915,200 baht. Moreover, the percentage of quality<br />

improved up to 95% and achieved the target.<br />

1. Introduction<br />

At the present, the competition has become increasingly<br />

violence in various sectors. So manufacturers need to improve the<br />

quality of their product, use existing resources to achieve maximum<br />

efficiency, reduce the costs of production and delivery to customers on<br />

time. To make the customers confidence in their products and services,<br />

if manufacturers are able to maintain such as the properties of products<br />

and services, the manufacturers will be able to compete in the global<br />

arena. So that, each company has the quality indicators to evaluate the<br />

ability of their company, which is most often used as the quality goals<br />

and it can be compared to their competitors.<br />

2 Purpose<br />

2.1 To make the decisions for improvement by used Failure<br />

Mode and Effect Analysis: FMEA and Analytic Hierarchy Process:<br />

AHP<br />

2.2 To reduce the amount of rework at dyeing process more<br />

than 20 percent down from the original value.<br />

3. Method<br />

The study started by determining the causes of quality<br />

problems at the dyeing process. This process is important in the<br />

analysis system that should find the real cause of the problem. So, it is<br />

necessary to choose the right tool to find the relationship between cause<br />

and effect that have a direct impact on the process or not. This process<br />

will analyze the problem using a stain chart, cause and effect diagram to<br />

determine the cause of the raw material, machinery, employees and the<br />

method. Thus, this research study was divided into three parts.<br />

Part 1: To find the main factors that affected the quality of<br />

the initial distribution. The study based on analysis technique of the<br />

defects and their effects (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis: FMEA).<br />

Part 2: To analyze the problems and solution without bias by<br />

the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). (The relation of the factors that<br />

affects the quality of the process)
