Normally Animals have Visual Ear Tags which shows Identification Number and it helps to track that Animal by viewing Identification number by Human eye, but when there is Large groups of Animals e.g. 5,000 Animals, it’s very difficult to check each Animal by visual Tags, record their Health Issues, Treatments, Calving, Reproduction, Milk, Feeding, Animals Sales, specially 4 Times Milking per day which mean 5,000 X 4 = 20,000 Animals Record per day only to record Milking. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) System is one which can solve this problem, RFID tags applies to each Animal’s ear, RFID Tag has unique Identification, by which we can track Animals Lifecycle. The reason of using RFID in Animals is that Animals are moving objects we can’t bound animals to be scan like Barcodes, to overcome this problem RFID is the best solution by using RFID as animal is free to move and when it comes at narrow path where RFID scanner is installed, Scanner interact with tag, electronically activates RFID Tag, hence RFID Tag send back its information carrying Identification number to scanner, scanner then send Identification to Database to extract, update Animals Record. This project is about RFID Implementation and Applications in a Live Stock Dairy Farm, which will present importance of RFID, need of RFID, its Different Applications, Environmental issues which effects read orientation, resolutions of issues, its draw backs. This project will mainly focus on RFID Implementation, different operations issues and applications in Dairy Farming.Item Implementation of 5s techniques in Kortech engineering limited(UMT, Lahore, 2025) HAMZA HAFIZ KHALID and MUHAMMAD FARHANThe five pillars of the visual workplace, commonly referred to as the 5S (Sorting, Systematizing, Sweeping, Sanitizing and Standardize).5S is a process of work place organization and housekeeping which is carried out gradually and systematically.

Rejection rate of any product plays a very important role for customer satisfaction and financial conditions of any company. Rejection rate causes a direct effect on profit margin of a product and decreases the quality of a product. Therefore the companies are struggling to reduce their rejection rate during the process of manufacturing through different quality tools, checking and inspection during different operations and implementing changes and strict quality checks where more defects are produced. High rejection rate of garments due to different number of defects during sewing is the major problem faced by Master textile mills. This project is very important from industry point of view because high rejection rate is creating customer dissatisfaction and financial loss to organization. Reduction in rejection rate is the project in which it is successfully attempted to prompt-out root causes along with a number of factors by adopting Six Sigma methodology. It was decided to implement DMAIC methodology in sewing department where high rejection rate stitched garment was recorded. This research presents a comprehensive study which focuses on the implementation of Six Sigma. The main aim of this study is to introduce DMAIC process of Six Sigma. The problem was identified practically in garments manufacturing industry in research. It was then measured to identify the extent of the problem so that it can be eliminated or reduced. Potential causes of problem was identified in the analyze phase. Finally, a pilot production run was made in order to make sure that the improvements being made does actually work and in control phase the work being doni previous phases properly implemented and sustained for providing the desired results. The statistical work for the project was done using Microsoft Excel 2010 and Smart Draw .After that an optimum solution was suggested along with the areas of improvement which reduced rejection rate and provided a significant financial benefit.Item Time study, bottleneck analysis and most analysis improving production efficiency using time study(UMT, Lahore, 2025) Muhammad Naeem Khan, Salman Fazal and Shahroz MushtaqThe purpose of this project is to create awareness about the value of time in industries. This project is implied on PEL (Pakistan Elektron Limited).The main aim of the company is to generate maximum out put in a least possible time .The main focus of our study is to define the standard time to do an operation. For this reason we conducted time study for every operation. After calculating the time we set the standard to produce maximum out put in a shift. The daily output of the company was around 800 units. There were some operations whom operating time was higher than other operation in the department which lead them to bottle neck .So to overcome this we analyzed the whole department and utilized the work force and enhanced the production of those operation by adding more work stations to keep them at level. There was also extra transportation of the worker so because of that it took more time to operate. So for that reason we change the lay out and eliminated extra motion of the worker and re calculated the standard time with respect to motion by using MOST (Maynard Operation Sequence Technique). From all these calculation we enhanced the production output around 2200 units. In the end we hope that this project will be helpful for the company.Item Minimization of waste by implementing lean tools in folding carton department, packages limited, Lahore(UMT, Lahore, 2025) Muhammad Arslan Saleem, Sardar Hassan Abass Khan, Muhammad Mohsin Sharif and Ali JavedThe title of our project was “Minimization of waste by implementing lean tools”.

The project is aimed to identify and investigate needs and problem areas in the crane cabin with the purpose to design an ergonomic and user-friendly driver environment. Besides ergonomics and user interaction, sturdiness, comfort and safety have been keywords throughout the project. It has not been possible to observe drivers at work because of the wide location of the cranes. Therefore needs and problem areas were identified through interviews with personnel at various local sites in Lahore and analysis through different methods and software such as Pro-E, I-deas, Jack and RULA. The project group was also given an opportunity to drive a crane and observe the relations between regulators, indicators and driver. To investigate new solutions and designs, competitors and related technologies were thoroughly analyzed. The final solution is a combination of new ideas and ideas from the four concepts in the concept design phase. Aspects considering function and form have been carefully thought out using theoretical guidelines in ergonomics, semiotics and gestalts. The new crane cabin emphasizes quality and a feeling through colors, shape and placement. It is based on an adjustable interior suited for drivers between the 5th and 95th percentile. A major improvement is the rotating chair with integrated control levers on the armrests. The indicators and regulators are separated and now placed on the walls. The visual field is improved with a larger front window and a tilted floor window.Item Implementation of 5S tools/ methodology in shop floor of allied engineering product services(UMT, Lahore, 2025) GHUFRAN RAUF
