9 Scenarios Plaguing Common Assembly Line Machines Assembly Line Machines are manufacturing systems in which work-in-progress moves from station to station in sequential order. At each workstation, new assemblies take place, the end result of which is a finished product. We, at Mekonix Systems, the leading Machine manufacturer in Pune, always look into the issues plaguing common Assembly Line Machines and churn out solutions.
The following 9 common scenarios are: 1. Over (or Under) Production Due to a Change in Demand-There is an emerging trend that requires manufacturers, for example, Top industrial automation companies in India, to move and change at lightning speed. Whether you’re experiencing changes in the market for lower (or higher) demand for specific products, rigid Assembly Line Machines and a dearth of proper tools make rebalancing your assembly line costly and timeconsuming. The solution is to rapidly accommodate production schedule changes. 2. Diminished Returns on Lean Manufacturing Efforts-If your company has successfully embraced lean strategies for Assembly Line Machines, but lately, has been witnessing diminishing returns, it’s high time for a paradigm shift to keep PDCA moving, technology being the only way out to solve this problem. 3. Lack of Real-Time Information-Many manufacturing Assembly Line Machines lacks the infrastructure or tools to identify problem areas and make analysis, which makes them unable to foresee potential issues. So, it’s imperative to own a tool for continuous monitoring and analyzing. 4. Imbalance in Station Workloads-Assembly Line Machines may be poorly balanced due to industry timings standards and documents not reflecting accurately the real task timing at each station. The feasible solution is the line balance simulator in the Process Engineering Tool enabling you to continuously average interlocked tasks, having more actual time estimates to appropriately balance the work.
