SUMMARY: 'Making more cars with less metal'  - Pippa Horton\, Engineering 
 Department

DESCRIPTION:Reducing sheet metal yield losses in automotive manufacturing 
 would reduce material demand\, providing both environmental and financial 
 benefits. Current literature is unclear on how yield losses can be reduced
  since there is limited knowledge of how much scrap is generated\, the cos
 t of scrap and why yield losses occur. This talk will present results from
  the industry\, vehicle and business process investigations which are anal
 ysed to propose and evaluate nine strategies for sheet metal scrap reducti
 on .
