Increasing the Productivity by using Work Study in a Manufacturing Industry - Literature Review
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Productivity increase by means of a work study in a manufacturing industry is the area of interest in this project. The project was conducted life live, where in numerous types of tools and techniques were employed to improve the efficiency and productivity of the industry. In essence, our project deals with the small-scale manufacturing industry. This concerned company in the project manufactures and supplies sheet metal components, including cyclones, electrical panel, stainless steel online humidification system and its components, and controlling panel. In addition, the company is a vendor of Nail Strip Jumbo, which is utilized in ginning machines. This live project applied work study methods to improve the practices in the industry, in addition to ascertaining and rectifying problems associated with the production process. The employment of such techniques improved production by reducing production time and processes involved, as well as an increase in the production rate. This project highlights the advantages of adopting such an efficient process
