Abstract

Competition of manufacturers with the aim of fulfilling market demand shows that unique techniques and approach are being considered to optimize productivity. One of such method involves the implementation and development of assembly fixture. This specific assembly tool supports an assembly task by improving worker ergonomics and generates a consistent level of accuracy to the work. The objective of this thesis is to design and develop an assembly fixture. Subsequent to this, analyzing worker posture in a car engine assembly from an ergonomic point of view will represent the foundation of the objective. The process of developing the assembly fixture is constructed using spiral model methodology, supported by RULA and OWAS method to evaluate the ergonomic postures during car engine assembly process, specifically piston and timing belt assembly. Result of this thesis are built on an observation to a car engine assembly, where the elements associated with the assembly fixture are measured, followed by a documentation on tasks sequence analyzed. The outcome is that assembly fixture has proven to improve productivity by reducing posture stress on the worker. Due to the strong finding concluded, an assembly fixture design is proposed for a PC speaker assembly process to increase productivity.
