Process<br />

The process changes inputs to outputs using resources. We split an operation to sub-operations in rough planning eg:<br />

vice a part to mounting device or move the box with the material. The big advantage of the Process Designer, are time<br />

tables with the MTM codes. You can simply define an operation eg: fixing a part to mounting device and Process<br />

Designer automatically calculates according a MTM codes operation times.<br />

FINE PLANNING<br />

Process Simulate serves to verify of assigned times from Process Designer. Process Simulate is a simulation tool for<br />

real simulations such as human motion in the assembly operations. Operations are defined to the sub-tasks such as<br />

finger grips for gripping parts, etc. After running the simulation, we have a new (simulated) times of operations. This<br />

new times will be compared with times from Process Designer. We can decide which time we will use in project.<br />

The Fig.6 shows the difference in the times from Process Designer and Process Simulate. Process Simulate is also used<br />

for verifying collisions in automated robotic manufacturing. Simulations of robot motions can help with organizing of<br />

workplaces. On Fig.6 the lower picture shows more detailed planning of operations. There you can see a difference in<br />

time of first sub-operation. Difference in time is 0.3 seconds compared to rough planning<br />

ERGONOMIC ANALYSIS<br />

We are testing an individual workplace after defining the operations, resources and products. There is a ergonomic tool<br />

JACK for this tasks. This tool contains a realistic model of a man with ties to the bones, muscles, joints, etc. You can<br />

set a male of human, weight, height. All these proportions affect a human at work.<br />

According to the results of each analysis, it is necessary to modify the workplace for the worker. After this we can again<br />

simulate a production process in Process Simulate. This cycle is repeated until we achieve the best results.<br />
