الملخص: | Ergonomic workstation is an important component in a production line. Poor layout design of a workstation can have an adverse effect on a worker's performance. This paper presents a method for analyzing the layout design of a workstation using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Three criterias and several sub criteria were identified. The criterions are the easiness of motion which consists of three sub criterions-working areas, position of tools, position of material; the comfort of work which consists of
four sub criterions-temperature, light, working position, noise; and safety which consists of three sub criterions-safety, dust, smell. A case study was conducted on an assembly workstation of a furniture manufacturer with three alternative layout designs. The result shows that the best layout for assembly is where the worker feels comfortable in completing the task. |
