Six Sigma is a statistical element of Freudenberg-NOK Sealing Technologies (Freudenberg-NOK)s business objectives and an extension of our company-wide Growtth® program. Its considered a standard of operational excellence something that Freudenberg-NOK prides itself on.
Six Sigma was designed to measure quality and allows for no more than 3.4 defects per million parts. At Freudenberg-NOK, we are proud that many of our plants which practice Six Sigma daily have PPM rates well below the set standard.
The goals of Six Sigma include:
- Improved customer satisfaction
- Defect reduction / elimination
- Yield improvement
- Reduced cost of poor quality
- Improved process capability
- Constant measurement of key metrics
Freudenberg-NOK has reaped the benefits of Six Sigma, so we provide training to strategic suppliers and customers at no cost in an effort to promote a cooperative, win-win relationship in the industry.
