Positional Weight

In this modern era, the competition among the manufacturing industry, especially in the automotive sector will become increasingly tight which causes companies need to innovate so that satisfaction of the consumer can be maintained. The production process will be an important aspect in the automotive industry to maintain the quality of products and ensure consumer demand can be fulfilled. The problems that often occur in the production process is in the form of production flow constraints caused by workload unbalanced in the assembly lines. The imbalance causes the assembly lines do not run in a cycle time that is determined, so that consumer demand can not be meet in the right amount and companies need to spend more to mitigate them. Therefore, this study was conducted to balance workload on the assembly line by using line balancing form Ranked Positional Weight (RPW) with a subsequent increase in the efficiency and productivity of assembly line that affect production process runs without any contraints.

The Relationship

The conveyor assembly line has been widely used in manufacturing industries to produce standard products with low costs. However, due to lack of flexibility, this production method has not been conducive to multivariety and small-batch production. In this situation, seru production formed by converting conveyor assembly lines has been a successful innovation in the Japanese manufacturing industry. Most of the existing literature has studied the benefits of this line-seru conversion from the perspective of the enterprises themselves, but this paper studies the effect of the line-seru conversion on the waiting time from the perspective of the customer. First, the change in the average waiting queue length caused by the line-seru conversion is proposed as an evaluation index. Second, with the consideration of the practical situation of random batch arrivals, the average waiting queue length formulas for the conveyor assembly line and seru production are established based on the assumption that the arrival is a Poisson process. Then, under two scenarios, we investigate the relationship between the average waiting queue length changed by the line-seru conversion and other parameters and find that the conversion can reduce the average waiting queue length in multivariety and small-batch production. Finally, under other potential scenarios, the equations for determining the average waiting queue length resulting from a change to line-seru conversion are derived.

The present paper is a continuation of a larger study of the authors, which consists of an analysis on the performances of several production systems. In this paper it is analyzed the influences of the method of managing the flows, the method of production programing and the clients demand on performance indicators of a multiproduct assembly line supplied on stock. The assembly line is designed to produce two types of similar products and is made of 5 workstations with mainly manual activities, which are supplied with parts on a stock based method. The performance indicators chosen for analysis were: average work in process, cost per unit, systems reactivity to client demand and throughput. The values of these indicators were obtained by simulating the assembly lines functioning in different experimental conditions, determined of the variation of above mentioned variables, by using ARENA software. The obtained results were interpreted and structured, in a manner to help the process managers to take adequate decisions considering the wanted objectives.

With the development of technology, augmented reality (AR) devices were introduced in many areas. One of these devices, AR glasses, is more convenient and easy to fulfil and still continuing to evolve. The AR glasses, which are frequently used in sectors such as education, entertainment, construction and automotive, bring many research areas. In this article, the cognitive load that AR glasses bring to the users who is working on an assembly line has been investigated. Cognitive load refers to the resources used by working memory in the brain. This study was carried out with healthy participants in the assembly line of an automotive manufacturing factory and 60 tests were performed for measurement. Effect of the AR glasses for participants under 35 and over 35 years of age was measured by electroencephalography (EEG). EEG is a common objective technique used in cognitive load measurements. EEG data collected were examined and no significant difference was observed between participants of under and over 35 years of age. When compared with the data obtained in the experiments without glasses, it was seen that the use of the AR glasses in assembly lines of automotive manufacturing factories did not create an additional cognitive load. It can be seen from the article that AR glasses did not have an age-related effect and can be use in the automotive manufacturing industry

The Assembly line is the assembly process that is carried out based on the order of the production process in the production line. The problem that is often found in assembly lines is bottleneck conditions where some material piled up at the station. This situation indicates an imbalance in the production line. The improvement of the work method is one of the effective ways that can increase line efficiency. This study presents an increase in line efficiency by improving working methods in a washing machine assembly line of PT.X. The study aimed to increase the value of line efficiency by improving work methods. In this study, improvements were made using the line balancing method and Eliminate, Combine, Rearrange, Simplify (ECRS) concept. The results that have been done, the obtained value of line efficiency for washing machine products is 76.76%. This value has not reached the company's productivity target of 99.50%. Therefore it is necessary to improve the assembling line to increase the value of product production. The proposed improvements made with improvements to the work methods on the assembling line obtained 89.38% results is to increase the amount of line efficiency by improving work methods.

The Past

Over the past few years, the interest towards off-site construction as part of project delivery for residential and commercial buildings has increased dramatically. In this regard, buildings are decomposed into panels that are manufactured using assembly lines smilar to what was developped to the automotive industry. However, because these serial production systems do not have buffers that could store intermediate products when a bottleneck occurs downstream, it often happens that these products are required to wait at the current workstation before production can resume. In this contribution, we develop algorithms allowing the waiting times to be extracted from timestamps that are collected from an RFID system reading the tags on panels as they enter each workstation.

Abstract This article deals with issues related to the flow of material to the assembly line and examines the possibilities of reducing the costs of this process. It is based on the current state of the transport of individual parts to the producing company and the storage system using Kanban and Just in Sequence (JIS) logistics technologies, and the subsequent collection of material for transport to the assembly line. The change in the system of transport technology has led to a reduction of the total storage space and costs, and at the same time, the processes related to storage and collection of parts have been simplified. The whole process of material flow to the assembly line is solved using the real supply system via the JIS technology, together with the system of receipt and storage of components in connection with individual operations during the handling and storage of these components, and their picking and transport to the assembly line. Evidently, the change in the system and the associated savings can also be employed to warehouses and manufacturing companies of the automotive industry, which use automated assembly lines with the timing of the assembly process of the final product.

Assembly Production

Two-sided assembly lines are widely used in the large-size product manufacturing industry, especially for automotive assembly production. Balancing the assembly line is significant for assembly process planning and assembly production. In this study, we develop a novel and exact method to optimize the two-sided assembly line balancing problem with zoning constraints (TALBz), in which the aim is to minimize the number of mated-stations considering the task restrictions. A mixed-integer programming model is employed to exactly describe the TALBz problem. To strengthen the computational efficiency, we apply Dantzig–Wolfe decomposition to reformulate the TALBz problem. We further propose a branch-and-price (B&P) algorithm that integrates the column generation approach into a branch-and-bound frame. Both the benchmark datasets with zoning constraints and without zoning constraints are tested to evaluate the performance of the B&P algorithm. The numerical results show that our proposed approach can obtain optimal solutions efficiently on most cases. In addition, experiments on the real-world datasets originating from passenger vehicle assembly lines are conducted. The proposed B&P algorithm shows its advantage in tackling practical problems with the task restrictions. This developed methodology therefore provides insight for solving large-scale TALBz problems in practice.

The Cost

This study aims to find a comparison of the calculation of the cost of goods manufactured in the CV. Mitra Setia Blitar uses the company's method and uses the Job Order Costing (JOC) method. The method used in this study is quantitative. The types of data used are quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative data is in the form of map production cost data while qualitative data is in the form of information about map production process. The result of calculating the cost of production of the map between the two methods results in a difference of Rp. 306. Calculation using the company method is more expensive than using the Job Order Costing method. Calculation of cost of goods manufactured using the company method is Rp. 2,205,000, - or Rp. 2,205, - each unit. While using the Job Order Costing (JOC) method is Rp. 1,899,000, - or Rp 1,899, - each unit. So that the right method used in calculating the cost of production is the Job Order Costing (JOC) method
