Improvement productivity analysis in the application of electro-pneumatic for production of automotive components Available to Purchase

The development of the industrial sector in the world in recent decades has increased significantly. In its development, Indonesia seeks to increase the projection capability of the automotive sector. Efforts to increase capacity are driven by the supply of automotive components, but in this activity, a new problem arises, namely the lack of production tools that are currently imported from European, American, and Asian countries. The data shows the need for the development of production tools in the industry to support the development of the automotive industry in Indonesia. Tools play an important role in the process of fixtures on products that aim to provide certainty of product dimensions against standards. In this case, the importance of research on jigs and fixtures which are production tools that play an important role in the part fixtures process. The formulation of this problem is to compare the tools that are operated manually and automatically by pneumatic by analyzing the speed of the process which is the main priority in supplying orders on time. Experiments were carried out on manual hand and automatic pneumatic types, by applying the DMAIC method to minimize manual hand activities and increase product output projections by applying pneumatic automatics. In the early stages of the experiment, a target of 1,200 units per shift with an output of 1 product per 21 seconds. manual hand gives a total production output of 1,191 units/shift, a sigma value of 4.44, a defect of 1.05%, and a yield of 99.85%. while the pneumatic automatic produces a total product output of 1,195.83 units/shift, sigma value 5.01, defect 0.50%, and yield 99.93%.
