Back to Five low scrap days on one press, and plant scrap eased

Press 11. Aug 10 to Aug 14. ERP scrap log.

Housing scrap staying low on every day so far

What it shows: The ERP shows how many housings press 11 made each day and how many were thrown out.

Why it proves the point: Every day held at about 2 percent, so the good result lasted all five days, not just one.
