| Summary: | Modern manufacturing system requires high rate productivity with low cost unit price
to maintain its competitiveness in global market. To achieve these goal common
investigation of productivity in manufacturing especially in assembly line environment
consist of two main purposes: (1) To determine potential reserve of productivity in
actual production condition, and (2) To provide initial parameter for planning a new
process arrangement based on prior experience of actual operating arrangement. The
calculation of productivity itself shall easily be applied for various kind of assembly
type such manual, automatic or hybrid and also may cover the complexity of various
models of products its produces. By using chronometric analysis as the statistical basis,
the formulation for productivity calculation must cover all its complexity
mathematically. The result of productivity calculation should be compared to graph of
price per unit under the same domain to determine the range of optimization regimes.
The final result is reliable important data for corporate decision makers to choose the
optimum configuration between the most economical configuration and the most
productive configuration. |
