Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立屏東科技大學 === 工業管理系所 === 101 === The production process, the design of production system and the level of WIP are the major factors which affected the output. Arranged a banlanced assembly linecan solve the problem. Hence, the study aims at the impact of the assembly line sizes (large, middle, and small) on the productions of two different products. 107 students from National Pingtung University of Science and Technology were recruited in the experiment. The major purposes of the study are investigate the effects of assembly line types, product types on total production quantity(TPQ), total counts of feeding material(TCFM), TPQ and TCFM for every 10 minutes, defective rates, and WIP levels. The study found the middle line performs the best on TPQ+WIP, TPQ, and has a moderate level of WIP and TCFM. Large assembly line is more difficult to balance with more WIP but less TCFM. However, if the product being produced is more complex, then the bigger line is needed for bigger TPQ. Finally, the small line is easier to be balanced with smaller WIP but bigger TCFM.
