The Influence of Assembly Workplace Layout on Ergonomics
Authors: ,
Abstract: Assembly is an important element in the production process. It largely influences the quality of the product and especially the time required to produce the final product. Studies in the field of assembly show that as technology advances, it is necessary to use new improvements at each stage of production, which includes the assembly stage. The aim of every enterprise should be to make the best and most economical use of all the resources at its disposal, on the one hand, and to increase productivity, on the other. Nowadays, ergonomics must be taken into account when solving problems or rationalizing assembly, since most assembly operations are carried out manually. In the theoretical part of the document, the assembly process is described together with the factors that influence it, focusing on manual assembly and its impact on ergonomics. The practical part describes an experiment carried out with the aim to increase the ergonomics of workers and to make the assembly process more efficient at an assembly workplace in a selected industrial enterprise through pre-arrangement of the workplace.
