ASSEMBLY LINE
What is assembly line?
An assembly line is a manufacturing process (most of the time called a
progressive assembly) in which parts (usually interchangeable parts) are added
as the semi-finished assembly moves from work station to work station where
the parts are added in sequence until the final assembly is produced.
The first production line in the western world was the Venetian Arsenal
which operated since around 1104. ships moved along a canal and were
fitted by various shops as they passed. At its peak efficiency it produced
one ship a day and could fit out, arm and provision a new ship on an
assembly line basis
The first flow assembly line was initiated at the factory of Richard Garrett
& Sons, Leiston Works in Leiston in the English county of Suffolk for the
manufacture of portable steam engines
The idea of the assembly line of the Ford Model T was inspired by the
disassembly line of the meat factories in Chicago
The efficiency of one person removing one part over and over again from
the carcasses inspired William Klann of Ford Motor Company
Principles of assembly
Place the tools and the men in the sequence of the operation so that each
component part shall travel the least possible distance while in the
process of finishing.
Use work slides or some other form of carrier so that when a workman
completes his operation, he drops the part always in the same place
which place must always be the most convenient place to his handand if
possible have gravity carry the part to the next workman for his operation.
AUTOMATION
What is automation?
Automation basics
Industrial automation
The robotic arms used in industry automatically cut, smooth, weld, drill
and check each car underbody.
The arms can complete the jobs much faster and more accurately than
people and without risks and hazards
Effects of automation
Some positive effects
Common cases of MMI are our daily use of computers, mobile phones
