@ARTICLE{Niekurzak_Mariusz_Assessment_2024, author={Niekurzak, Mariusz and Kubińska-Jabcoń, Ewa}, volume={Vol. 15}, number={No 4}, journal={Management and Production Engineering Review}, howpublished={online}, year={2024}, publisher={Production Engineering Committee of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Polish Association for Production Management}, abstract={The article is a case study on improving the production process of refractory products, where the results of the visual inspection processes of the tested product were used to initiate the improvement. The article presents a systemic process approach to measurement problems and its application using a 3D camera in the refractory industry. The article presents the analysis of the nonconformity structure of the tested product, based on which critical nonconformities were identified and corrective actions were initiated. Special attention was paid to the importance of metrological control (quality control plan) over the process of manufactured products. The requirements for measuring equipment according to quality standards were presented and the principles of their effective use in real conditions were discussed. The analyses carried out have shown that by analysing the results of quality control it is possible to reduce the occurrence of quality problems and thus improve the production process. The originality of the research lies in the identification of significant differences in the quality aspects of products. Research results can contribute to more effective and coherent development activities to achieve a stable and competitive advantage in the market by improving the quality and environmental performance of products. The research results and the conclusions drawn from them can be used by scientists and practitioners to shape the target states of companies in a period of growing commitment to the idea of sustainable production.}, title={Assessment of the Implementation of a 3D Vision Measuring System on the Production Line in Quality Control of Refractory Products}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/133932/PDF-MASTER/1090_1k.pdf}, keywords={3D camera, ANOVA, refractory products, FMEA method, quality control}, }
