Ergonomics Simulation and Application in Production Assembly Line

Abstract:

In order to avoid the ergonomic issues in the early planning stages of production line, and to achieve a more satisfactory planning and design, the ergonomic simulation is particularly important in the study of digital production line planning. An ergonomics analysis methods was presented making use of these two theory of OWAS and BSHA. The process of ergonomics analysis and simulation was discussed based on the platform of Process Simulate & Process Designer. Finally, take an example, how to consider the ergonomics problems in production line planning was introduced to make a better choice between different production line planning schemes.
