Today, Hongdali share the FAQ for assembly line and production line as below:
1) Is the assembly line always from left to right or from right to left?
Normally the assembly line flows from left to right because most people are used to the right hand,. However, due to the area limitation of some factories, at least one of the two or more assembly lines may flow in the opposite direction.
2) Is the U-shaped assembly line the most suitable?
Not necessarily. The layout of the production line/assembly line must be based on the characteristics and workmanship of the product.
3) The faster the speed of the assembly line, the higher its production capacity?
The level of production capacity should depend on the operation time of bottleneck process and the fastest operation time of each station. If the production line speed is forcibly increased, it will cause many problems.
4) Is the assembly line designed to transport products?
Not exactly. The ultimate goal is to realize the “continuous value flow” of products.
5) Why is the output relatively low at the beginning of work or shift handover on the assembly line?
It is a stage of preparation and a time period with frequent problems. Therefore, the management of shift handover is very critical.
6) Must the speed of the assembly line setting of the streamline be kept constant?
In the same product category, it should be constant. When different products are produced on the same line, there will be changes in speed of the assembly line. At the same time, due to the problems of new employees, the assembly line speed will be reduced.
7) Can only one product be placed in each grid of pitch mark?
Not necessarily, we should focus on the pursuit of stable production flow
8) Will it better that the faster the pre assembly processing speed ? Is the more buffer stock the better?
No, it should be produced on demand. However, the processing speed of pre assembly can be slightly faster than that of assembly.
9) The assembly line is easy to find the backlog, the monitor management can show the progress, and the line leader urges the employees to do it faster, right?
The first two are right, but the third is not necessarily. It is not appropriate to urge employees when the production pace is normal, which will cause some unnecessary problems (for example, urging changes the operation manual of employees, and the inspection is ignored)
10) The assembly line chief said someone asked for leave and couldn’t arrange the production line, right? If you can’t borrow people, will you let the employees work separately?
First, strictly speaking, the assembly line cannot complete all subsequent operations without the cooperation and cooperation of one person. Because there are few people in one link, there will be a decline in output, but not many. In addition, where are the emergency countermeasures in this situation? If the manager doesn’t consider these common problems, can he still open a factory?
11) Who is more reasonable for employees to produce standing or sitting when they are working on the assembly line?
Depending on product / condition / facility
12) Whether the container on the assembly line/production line should be dedicated or general-purpose, and what is its scale!
Most of them should be designed for general use, not for special use.
13) How about is the height and width of the production line/assembly line and the height and width of the machine more reasonable?
According to the principle of ergonomics, the sitting workbench is 65 ~ 75cm high and the seats are 38 ~ 45; The standing workbench is 85 ~ 95cm, the seats are 58 ~ 62, and there are 20 ~ 30 platforms with feet.
