![]() ![]() RIGID Industries is constantly developing the newest technology for the off-road lighting market. Students: Austin Harmon, Dustin Sellers, Michael Reynolds, Sage Furman, Tanner Souza Our final deliverable is a solutions packet with an explanation of the solutions, implementation plans and how the solutions could be transferred to other factory lines. The WIP tracking board displays operator swim lanes, production line dependencies and potential bottlenecks. The parts bin label uses colors, part names, pictures and a QR code, among other things, to help keep track of parts in the factory and increase productivity by reducing time to find parts. ![]() ![]() This team developed two solutions: a parts bin label and a WIP tracking board. Their Javelin factory need improved on-site visual solutions such as signage, posters, bin labeling and WIP display boards to increase the facility’s operational productivity, parts traceability, organization and overall efficiency. Raytheon Technologies (RTX) is one of the leading competitors in the Aerospace and Defense industry around the world. Students: Cecilia Alcantar-Chavez, Connor Morse, Maxwell Gould, Simon-Peter Wrublik The potential power savings of this switch can reduce utility costs by up to $800,000 per year. To conduct this study, the team produced an excel simulation that emulates the performance of a cooling tower based on the climate conditions of the North Dakota plant. Lallemand tasked this team with conducting a study to determine whether or not cooling towers are an effective alternative to mechanical chillers. However, Lallemand is interested in switching their cooling method from mechanical chillers to a cooling tower, a device that leverages the naturally cold climate of North Dakota to chill the water. At Lallemand’s North Dakota plant, mechanical chillers run year-round to cool the process water used in their yeast-making facilities. The North American production facilities produce yeast, which is an essential component for the food supply chain and service industrial and mid-size bakers. Lallemand Baking is a global microbial solutions provider for many diverse applications and is represented in 12 countries. Students: Alexis Ramos, Max Low, Noah Asherbranner, Ramone Vick ![]()
