Optimum Cycle Time Based On Jig And Workstation Design Combinations

Jig design and workstation design are areas that influence productivity. Good combination of jig and workstation design is needed to obtain optimum cycle time. The best combination also helps workers to perform their job faster and easier and thus, enhance the productivity. This project determine...
