Abstract:
Plastics production is an important industrial sector in the world. However, producing the right plastic color with minimal reject is a challenge for plastic manufacturer. In this paper, Business intelligence is used for production data analysis in order to isolate the parameters the most susceptible of causing color mismatch. Consequently, the number of parameters to be further examined is significantly reduced. And, the processing parameters causing rejects can be quickly identified and solved.
