Chapter – 6: Quality Circle

— In present work quality circle plays an important role in making bucket elevator a very successful machine in agriculture industries. Quality circle approach helps the agro industry in maintaining a quality of the product without increasing the cost of the product which is a major factor due to competition between various agro industries. Quality circle with its various techniques helps in identifying various problems and improvements and not only identifying but also provides the solutions to that problems and provides the means to implement that solution so that machine will improve. Quality circle is never ending process. In agro industries quality circle works on the theory of still room for improvement. All the members are committed to their work so that with the help of their ideas machine can be improved further and further. These elevators are used in mostly food indust ries or grain industries. These elevators are placed in front of every food grading machines so that instead of feeding material directly to grading machines which are of certain height from the floor level. This machine helps in reducing man power and their efforts to lift the material up to the height of the machine. But there were certain demerits in its working. but after applying quality circle and their tools we achieve success in making a bucket elevator a very successful machine .there were so many demerits earlier but after applying quality circle approach we find out solutions of various problems which need to be rectified so that this machine has develop in good error free machine. Quality circle approach not only helps in finding solutions to various problems but also provides the means to implement them.
