Aspects of Machine to be Studied
Advanced Machine Availability
Replacement
Condition of the Machine (Repair & Overhaul Need)
Improvement of the Machine
Accessories
Cutting Tools
Machine Speeds
Setup Procedure
Upkeep of the machine by operator
Power consumption
Breakdowns analysis
Data Generation and Analysis
Advanced Machine Availability
As a part of Machine work study, availability of advanced machines can be ascertained and a study is done to evaluate buying the new advanced machine.
Replacement
Based on repair cost and operating cost, analysis is to be done regarding replacement of the machine by the same
model or by a different
machine.
Condition of the Machine (Repair & Overhaul Need)
As part of machine work study, the condition of the machine is to be evaluated for recommend-ing overhaul if needed.
Whether adequate maintenance is being done or not is investi-
gated
Improvement of the Machine
Industrial engineers have to find if any improvement of machine can increase productivity.
In Toyota improvement of machines is an important activity.
Accessories
Investigate if any machine accessories are available which can increase productivity.
Cutting Tools
Are appropriate cutting
tools used for various
operations?
Cutting tool planning is
required so that tools are available when needed.
Machine Speeds
Machine speed optimization was done by F.W. Taylor.
Many research studies are being done even in the current years.
For each machine, relevant speed analysis has to be done by industrial engineers as part of Machine work study.
Setup Procedure
Setup time reduction is now
an important exercise related
to machines.
For each machine set up redu-ction studies have to be done by industrial engineering
department.
Upkeep of the Machine by Operator
Scientific management of the
machine maintenance recog-
nized the role of operations
persons in machine upkeep.
Industrial engineers have to
assess the present practices
& their effect on productivity.
Power Consumption
Minimizing power consumption is an
important industrial engineering
activity.
Hence power consumption has to be
analysed and measures are taken to
eliminate waste.
Breakdowns Analysis
Breakdown analysis has
to be done to examine
the adequacy of preventive
maintenance and predictive
Maintenance.
Data Generation and Analysis
Information is also a resource.
Industrial engineers have to
assess the adequacy of the information.
They also have to prevent waste.
They have to examine the cost
incurred for data collection.
Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 is increasing the role of machines and information collection and transmission in production systems.
Hence industrial engineers have to be increase their effort on machine data collection using sensors and the data analysis through edge computing and cloud computing.
