Abstract

In recent years and ongoing, the national car maker had to compete in the global automotive industry that force them to offer lower price. Through lean manufacturing system, waste can be eliminated in order to reduce cost and avoid inefficiency in the manufacturing process. This can be achieved by improving the automated part supply system and designing the conveyor segments based on consideration of manufacturing ergonomics. Besides that, in current conventional for part loading and unloading system, human need to pick and transfer back (manually) in the part supply system. The purpose of this study to design an automated part supply system that support production with supply system. Second, to reduce single operator workload by designing a semi automated part racking. Based on product benchmarking on the market, the sketch is generated and design will be produced by using SpaceClaim software. The software is also use to analyze the design produce. The prototype is fabricate using selected material and is test to support the AGV polybox transfer.
