Conceptual Design Of Shielded Metal Arc Welding Workstation: Work Posture And Bead Dimension Consideration

The aim of this study was to propose a conceptual design of SMAW workstation which considered work postures of welders and weld bead dimensions. This study applied full factorial design of experiment. The independent variables were table height, table surface inclination, and work position whereas...
