A ATIVIDADE COMO SUPORTE PARA PROJETO DE LAYOUT DE UM SISTEMA PRODUTIVO

Through an ergonomic work analysis, this paper analyzed trajectory movements made in the assembly department of a factory, and how the department layout and the movements reflect on its productivity. On one equipment assembly, the trajectory movements correspond to 35% of the assembly time. A new layout was proposed, and the simulation for the trajectory showed an average reduction of 75,25% on equipment assembly.
