Track: Production Planning and Control
Abstract
The objectives of the study in PT. XYZ on the stationary area is to identify the product that doesn’t meet the target, and those products are Memo Square No Glue, Memo Square Glue, A4 Paper 100 Sheets and A4 Paper 250 sheets. The first method used is the Stopwatch Time Study to calculate the cycle time of every work element, then followed by the Time Study method to calculate normal time and standard time by considering performance rating and allowance. The second method used is Line Balancing which serves to calculate the performance on every line. Line efficiency obtained for those 4 products are 49.30% ; 51.46% ; 45.47% ; 45.66%.
Furthermore, the line suggestion is the calculation of line performance using Rank Positional Weight (RPW) and Kilbridge Wester (KW) methods which produce better performance than before, namely the RPW line efficiency of 85.87%; 74.59%; 68.03%; 73.84%. While line efficiency with KW is 66.11%; 74.60%; 71.75%; 58.33%.
