Increasing Production Rate of Gear Box Assembly Using SMED Concept

Abstract

In This Paper The Purpose Of The Single Minute Exchange Die (SMED) Is To Eliminate Waste Of Time. Longer Setting Up Time Denotes That Production Line Is Not Very Productive. Nowadays, Everything Is Being Done Faster And JustIn-Time, Where Manufactures Need To Produce Product Fast And Without Neglecting The Quality And Deliver It To Customer In Right Time. In This Project, SMED Has Been Provided To Eliminate Waste Of Time (Lead Time) With Eight Technique Of SMED. In SMED, Molds Or Die Exchange Should Be Less Than 10 Minute And It Helps In Improvement Of Gear Box Assembly. The SMED Methodology Is Applied To Reduce The Setup Times Observed At The Beginning Of The Project. It Was Possible To Reduce Setup Times, Work-In-Process And Distances Walked By Operators With Developed Solutions. Also The Lead Time Of The Process Is Also Considerably Reduced. Further, The Setup Operations Were Standardized And As A Result The Process Has Become More Fast And Productive For The Workers. In This Project The Fixtures, Clamps And Holder Were Designed Using Creo Software.
