“…The findings of this study support the idea that redesigning work methods is crucial for improving the operational performance of assembly lines with an intensive manual workforce. This finding is consistent with previous research (Islam et al, 2022), which demonstrated the impact of the design process on the OEE results of new production lines. Hence, we can argue that: P3.…”

“…The overall findings revealed a positive and significant relationship between total productive maintenance programs and operational performance concerning cost effectiveness, quality of products, on-time deliveries and flexibility. Islam et al (2022) conducted a case study to investigate how the production system's design process could enhance operational performance during the production ramp-up and operation phases. Their research focused on newly-launched production lines and demonstrated the impact of design on OEE results.…”

PurposeThis study aims to investigate how to identify and address production levelling problems in assembly lines utilising an intensive manual workforce when higher productivity levels are urgently requested to meet market demands.Design/methodology/approachA mixed-methods approach was used in the research design, integrating case study analysis, interviews and qualitative/quantitative data collection and analysis. The methodology implemented also introduces to the literature on operational performance a novel combination of data analysis methods by introducing the use of the Natural Language Understanding (NLU) methods.FindingsFirst, the findings unveil the impacts on operational performance that transportation, limited documentation and waiting times play in assembly lines composed of an intensive workforce. Second, the paper unveils the understanding of the role that a limited understanding of how the assembly line functions play in productivity. Finally, the authors provide actionable insights into the levelling problems in manual assembly lines.Practical implicationsThis research supports industries operating assembly lines with intensive utilisation of manual workforce to improve operational performance. The paper also proposed a novel conceptual model prescriptively guiding quick and long-term improvements in intensive manual workforce assembly lines. The article assists industrial decision-makers with subsequent turnaround strategies to ensure higher efficiency levels requested by the market.Originality/valueThe paper offers actionable findings relevant to other manual assembly lines utilising an intensive workforce looking to improve operational performance. Some of the methods and strategies examined in this study to improve productivity require minimal capital investments. Lastly, the study contributes to the empirical literature by identifying production levelling problems in a real context.

The turbulent manufacturing market, and in particular the metallurgical industry, determines continuous improvement in the level of production efficiency and product quality. The aim of the study was to create a universal model enabling an assessment to be made of the impact of the modernity of aluminium casting machining technology on the quality of the final product and occupational safety in the company under study. The research methodology included the determination of the degree of modernity of machines, identification of the impact of the degree of modernity of machines on the quality and safety of the process, as well as the analysis of relations that occur between critical nonconformities and technological factors and accidents and near misses. The method presented in the study can be useful for the effective management of casting treatment technology in manufacturing companies, in order to select an appropriate development strategy and ensure safe working conditions.
