Abstract:
The following work is an experimental study towards finding methods to increase the productivity of conventional processes with minimum additional arrangements. The problem taken for this specific project is all about the elimination of a certain bottleneck in the assembly line that produces metallic impellers that are coupled to three phase induction motors and are used for heavy duty industrial applications. These impellers were being batch produced at the manufacturing unit we procured the problem statement from.
The objective is a decent opportunity for the manufacturer to implement methods of improving productivity of the overall process. Hence, in our literature survey, a vital chunk of guidance has been taken from various productivity improving tools like Lean Manufacturing.
The study initiated with a detailed survey of literature related to Power Press machines and their use. Since this project is related to automation and that too, using customized data, a survey regarding other competent machines and solutions to the given problem statement.
As per the standard design methodology protocols, we have made an attempt to
