| Abstract Scope |
Time-waste according to the lean manufacturing concept is time spent without generating any goods. Many methodologies are developed to solve this problem, such as a Single Minute Exchange Die System (SMED) which considers only reducing the time to install forming dies, but not minimizing forming tools. In case of manufacturing pulleys, major time-waste is the installation of forming dies. Normally each forming die-set will be used only 3 hours/lot making parts, while it takes 45 minutes to install forming dies to press. Almost 25% production time will be loss. In this research, Common Single-Die Exchange Technique (C-SDET) integrated with Finite Element Modeling was proposed. The methodology is to develop generalized common dies by utilizing the same part configurations/shapes but difference in dimensions at some areas. The results show that almost 60 percent of a number of the forming dies can be reduced in the production of various models of pulleys. |
