CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Background
This is a system that is proposing a simulation system applying the concept of using Work Study Technique called Maynard Operation sequence Technique (MOST) for aerospace manufacturing company. This project is a sub project for RAGS project entitled Formulation of Mathematical Model for Man-Machine Configuration Work Study in Electronic Manufacturing headed by Puan Rohana bnti Abdullah,Faculty of Manufacturing Engineering (FKP) UteM.
The literature review will include the work study technique, web based user interface design, simulation system technique, the user friendly system and the interactivity of the system. At the end of this project, a web based prototype is expected to be able to be used for data entry, simulate the manufacturing process based on data, display related graph, and generate the statistic and conclusion for the optimization process.
The methodology on this system development process is using System Development Life Cycle Water fall Model. By using this methodology it will assist the system development process phase by phase. The expected outcomes are achieving the objective of the system need and use by company to change their manual system to the intelligent system.
1.2 Problem Statement
1. Spend a lot of time to collect the data.
The manual and data record is on manual process and need a long time to overcome the proces. For the current process situation the staff need to prepared all the data and from the problem process area. So that it take a time to entry the data manually on the Microsoft Excel.
2. No automated system
There is no automated system to identify the waste contribution in production line from the manual system into the automated system. The staff need to configured all the calculation in each of process. So that the staff need to make the formula for many time and it is hard to create a template because of the factor of the capability of the the software is not support to perform the task efficiently.
and need to use the human work energy to solve. In this part, the view of point it taking serously about the automated data to make a summary as result all of the time process need to perform manually. It need to find the solution how to generate the summary effiently and comprehensive to simulate the data automatically.
1.3 Objectives
The objectives go in this paragraph. This section discusses the objectives of the project. Can be in point form format (use bullets) together with a brief explanation.
1. To investigate the user friendly automated simulation system to perform Work Study Technique that is Maynard Operation sequence Technique (MOST) at aerospace manufacturing company.
2. To develop the web application that is will help company to identify the waste contribution in production line from the manual system into the automated system
3. To evaluate the usability of the web based simulation system.
1.4 Research Question
a) How to organize the data to ease the staff to study the system
b) What the easier method to create the calculation of time for each activity involve
c) How make the easiest way for staff to plan and simulate the process
1.5 Scopes
The scopes of the project are divided by two the system and user:
1. System
- Recieving index by user
- Generate the result
- Report and Chart comparison
2. User
- Human Resourse Staff Department
1.6 Project Significance
1. This project is a product that will be used in manufactring company in order to use the manual system to run the activity to overcome the process.
2. This project will simulatethe Work Study Technique that is Maynard Operation sequence Technique (MOST) at aerospace manufacturing company.
3. This project is develop by web application to help company to identify the waste contribution in production line from the manual system into the automated system and evaluate the usability of the web based simulation system.
1.7 Expected Output
The expected output of the project are:
1. Achieve the objective of the system need
2. Use by company to change their manual system to intelligent system.
3. Will recommend to other industry to use the intelligent system to reduce the time spend in manual operation
1.8 Project Framework
[image:21.595.127.556.238.427.2]System Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
Figure 1.1: The Project Framework using System Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
Based on the figure 1.1, the project framework is design to ensure all the system development phase is follow the aspect as show as the figure above. The figure tell us the diagram of System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) that show the flow of the project development
1.9 Conclusion
The conclusion is the current system is not apply the interactivve method that will help user to perform the tas effectively. It is hard to use and need to make an improvement in aspects that help to develop the efficient and dinamic system. The system that need to develop is need to fulfil the dinamic system to provide the dinamic vew to see the difference of activity rocess improvement.
CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Introduction
In the first chapter of this study was described about the background that consists of objectives, problem statement and outline of the study. In this chapter mainly discussed about the references review. Generally, this chapter contains of literature review that based on the operation, principle and mechanism that related to the work study technique which consist of method study and work measurement. To ensure the system is in user friendly environment, some research about the simulation system and interactively of the system based on interface and programming. Some of the previous research and studies were include into to this chapter to support of the development of the ideas for Predetermined Time study. This chapter also explain about the Mynard Operation Sequences Technique (MOST).
2.2 Domain
The domain for this project is web application. Web application is web based system that runs on browser to perform the task. As the client requirements the system need to be used by more than one pc and it need to locate the system on server to make it perform through the network.
Web application not use the internet connection because of the architecture of the system only around of the intranet area. Only user in the same area network can use the system and it is applicable with the user requirement.
2.3 Existing System
To develop this project, the research is based on the existing system; Productivity Using SMARTMOST Work Study Technique at Aerospace Manufacturing Company that needs the improvement to enhance the ability of the system based on the objective of the system development. The next sub topic is discuss what the SMARTMOST Work Study Technique is, and how it is implement in manufacturing industry and how the current system is running.
