Production Supervisor

Production Planning & Execution

• ​Daily Target Achievement: Execute daily production schedules to meet dispatch targets (e.g., specific number of bricks/blocks per shift).
• ​Cycle Time Optimization: Monitor the vibro-press or hydraulic machine cycle times to ensure maximum output without compromising machine health.
• ​Shift Management: Organize shift rosters, ensuring machines are manned 24/7 (if applicable) or during peak hours without gaps.
• ​Process Flow Control: Oversee the entire line from raw material feeding (pan mixer) to the conveyor belt, pressing, and stacking.

​2. Quality Control (QC)

• ​Mix Design Adherence: Strictly enforce the mandated mix ratios of Fly Ash, Cement, Sand/Stone Dust, and Grit. Ensure water-cement ratio is consistent to prevent breakage.
• ​Color & Finish (Pavers): Monitor the "Face Mix" (top layer) for paver blocks to ensure consistent pigmentation and smooth finish.
• ​Dimensional Accuracy: Regularly measure product dimensions (height and thickness) using Vernier calipers to ensure they meet IS codes (e.g., IS 15658 for pavers, IS 12894 for fly ash bricks).
• ​Curing Supervision: Ensure stacked bricks/blocks receive adequate water curing (mist or immersion) for the required duration (usually 7–21 days) to achieve target compressive strength.

​3. Raw Material & Inventory Management

• ​Material Availability: Check stock levels of cement, fly ash, and pigments at the start of every shift to prevent line stoppages.
• ​Wastage Control: Minimize breakage during "Green Brick" (wet/fresh brick) handling and stacking.
• ​Rejection Analysis: Track the percentage of rejected bricks daily and investigate root causes (e.g., low hydraulic pressure, bad mix).

​4. Machine Maintenance & Troubleshooting

• ​Preventive Maintenance: Schedule daily cleaning of the Pan Mixer (to prevent concrete hardening inside) and greasing of moving parts on the Press Machine.
• ​Minor Repairs: Supervise the changing of molds (e.g., switching from Zig-Zag to I-Shape pavers) and hydraulic oil level checks.
• ​Downtime Reporting: Log machine breakdown hours and coordinate with the mechanical technician for immediate repairs.

​5. Labor Management & Safety

• ​Task Allocation: Assign specific duties to unskilled labor (e.g., material feeding, pallet shifting, stacking).
• ​Productivity Monitoring: Ensure laborers are stacking bricks efficiently to clear pallets for the next cycle.
• ​Safety Compliance: Enforce the use of PPE (gloves, masks for dust, safety shoes) and ensure safety guards are active on conveyor belts and mixers.

​6. Documentation & Reporting

• ​Daily Production Report (DPR): Submit a daily report detailing:
• ​Total Production (Qty).
• ​Cement/Fly ash consumption.
• ​Breakage/Rejection count.
• ​Machine running hours vs. downtime.

​Success Metrics (KPIs) for this Role

• ​Production Efficiency: >90% achievement of installed capacity.
• ​Rejection Rate: Maintenance of rejection below 2%.
• ​Cement Consumption: Adherence to the defined "Per Brick Cost" (preventing over-usage of cement).
