description |
This research paper presents an implementation of one of the Lean Manufacturing
(LM) tools, known as Standardized Work (SW), at an automotive assembly line
in Malaysia. The main functions of SW are to design, develop, document and
visualize a set of manufacturing process with detail and proper study on it. SW
is conducted to raise production efficiency and quality. Quality here referred to
quality of the products to be produced and quality of the jobs to be performed.
With the main objective to demonstrate a systematic and organized guideline on
how data collection and analysis should be conducted with detail explanation
on tools and methods used for efficient implementation of SW, a case study was
conducted at an automotive components assembly line, at XYZ Manufacturing
Sendirian Berhad. There are five major phases involved in the implementation
of this research work; (i) observation, to understand the existing study area
conditions, (ii) data collection through observation, referring to company’s
production system and work study method, (iii) data analysis using SW tools,
(iv) development of standardized process, and (v) results evaluation by using
lean metrics to analyze the performance of the standardized assembly process.
results show that, with systematic and proper implementation, SW offer a lots
of benefits such as help to increase efficiency and quality and process stability
in terms of productivity, quality and operator’s performance. Moreover, it also
helps to achieve LM philosophies which are wastes elimination and continuous
improvement during the implementation. |
