Track: Senior Capstone Design Competition / FYP Competition

Abstract

Bottleneck cause interruption to the flow of work and delays across the production process. This is where the limited capacity reduces the capacity of the whole chain. Usually, this lead to different business problems like loss of customer satisfaction and even loss of revenue. Moreover, safety is also one of the common concerns in production due to different hazards available in the workplace. This can also affect the overall productivity and bring unnecessary costs to the company. As an answer, the proponents and the management team come up with a prototype that would eliminate the bottlenecking and eventually eliminate injury to workers in the production line of kitchenware. Upon observation and breaking down the details of the current production process, they have realized that manual processes can be supported by a combination of machine basic functions. To achieve a better design, the proponents conducted a different analysis to get the best possible design option. The objective of this study is to eliminate the bottleneck and eliminate incidents of injury in this production line. Thus, achieving customer satisfaction due to fast, complete, and ensure quality and safety.
