Abstract

There is a worldwide corporation dedicated to the manufacturing of the main water treatment devices, it has water heater manufacturing plants in India, China, the United States, Brazil and Mexico, being at the forefront of the highest technology devices for water treatment.

Currently, the industry in manufacturing system focuses on the needs of the client, it is intended to improve the process in the area of manufacturing water products.

One of the main causes of a “code 8” defect is the application of glass to the barrel in spray machines, due to a variation in brushing and cleaning at the bottom of the barrel.
