Improving Workshop’s Production Efficiency by Applying Industrial Engineering Methods

Article Preview

Abstract:

One workshop’s production efficiency was evaluated and improved according to the evaluation results. The work sampling was applied to evaluate the efficiency of machines and men. The facility layout was improved by applying the systematic layout planning so as to reduce the waiting time and handling waste; the multi-machine-tools operation strategy was designed by applying man-machine operation analysis to reduce workers waiting time; in addition, some other improvement suggestions were proposed from the angle of group technology and part’s moving method. The work sampling shows that these improvement measures can improve the workshop’s production efficiency effectively at lower cost.
