Abstract:Purpose
The tightening operations are one of the most critical operations in automotive assembly lines because of its direct impact on customer safety. This study aims to evaluate the major complexity drivers for manual tightening operations, correlate with real tightening failure data and propose mitigations to improve the complexity.
Design/methodology/approach
In the first stage, the complexity drivers for manual tightening operations were identified. Then, the relative importance of the risk attributes w… Show more
