been with Roll-Kraft for 18 years and has held various engineering positions within the company, including engineering man- ager of tube and pipe and roll form tool- ing. This newly created position will involve the handling of all corrective and preventive actions (CPAs), as well as using the ‘five why method’ for evaluating root causes. Mr Rau will be responsible for in-depth audits throughout the company and enlisting audit teams at Roll-Kraft’s various locations. A major emphasis will be placed on improving existing processes, or standardising new processes, reducing waste and developing training documentation for new employees, as well as for daily use. By employing available technological resources, detailed training instructions, complete with photos, will be readily accessible on the company’s intranet for immediate reference. This will ensure that the latest procedures will be used, first and foremost, in performing the manufacturing process. Roll-Kraft said that the addition of this position and the implementation of these procedures will aid in providing quality tooling to the tube and pipe and roll forming industry that meets on-time delivery requirements and first-time performance.
