  2. 6. Supporting production preparation during product development using production requirements

    Author : Rohith Areth Koroth; Fredrik Elgh; Martin Lennartsson; Dag Raudberget; Dag Bergsjö; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Product development; Production preparation; Production requirements; Producibility assessment; Requirement management;

    Abstract : Product development is affected by uncertainties due to changing customer requirements, changing regulations, technological developments, long lead times, high product complexities, and geopolitical issues. Automation, increased flexibility of production, and reduced lead times are drivers that allow product development to be competitive in this scenario. READ MORE

  4. 7. Performance-based costing as decision support for development of discrete part production : Linking performance, production costs and sustainability

    Author : Christina Windmark; Industriell Produktion; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Production cost; PERFORMANCE; decision support; manufacturing; production development; performance-based costing; sustainability; organizational learning; Production cost; Performance; Decision support; Manufacturing; Production development; performance-based costing; Sustainability; Organizational learning;

    Abstract : In today’s global market, the industry is struggling every day to make the “correct decisions”. Decisions concerning production can range from smaller improvements to choice tool or equipment investments to relocation of entire production facilities. READ MORE

  5. 8. PRODUCTION ERGONOMICS EVALUATION - NEEDS, PROCEDURES AND DIGITAL HUMAN MODELING TOOLS

    Author : Cecilia Berlin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cumulative; Production Ergonomics; Digital Human Modeling; Prevention; Musculo-Skeletal Disorders; DHM; Time; Virtual Tools;

    Abstract : In production systems, human operators may be at risk for developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), resulting in pain, inability to work and high costs. An increasingly capable tool for identifying MSD risks early in the production design process are Digital Human Models (DHMs), although their built-in analysis tools are in great need of development regarding how they address time-related aspects of load exposure.

  7. 10. Ergonomics risk assessment methods for creating healthy work environments

    Author : Ida-Märta Rhén; Mikael Forsman; Teresia Nyman; Anna-Lisa Osvalder; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ergonomics; Risk assessment; Reliability; Validity; Systematic Observation; Direct measurement; Simulation; Digital Human Modelling; Workplace Design; Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders; Biomechanical Exposure; Teknik och hälsa; Technology and Health;

    Abstract : Risk assessments of ergonomic conditions in pre-production and in field are necessary to prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders and to increase productivity and quality. Methods for such assessments include simulations, direct measurements and observations. READ MORE
