    Sammanfattning : Improving production ergonomics is a pursuit common to many companies in different industrial sectors. At the core is an aspiration to eliminate risks for work-related musculo-skeletal disorders (MSDs), but modern views on ergonomics have evolved the discipline from a purely physiological, instrumental concern to an organizational, holistic systems-performance discipline (macroergonomics).

  2. 2. Integration environmental aspects into product development : proactive measures

    Författare :Sofia Ritzén; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ecodesign; integrated product development; environmental aspects; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : Environmental concern has greatly increased in magnitude within the companies of Swedish industry. Product development has become a strategic area: the environmental adaptation of products is fundamental for a decrease in environmental impact from human activities, and product development is an area of the greatest importance to the competitiveness of companies.

  3. 3. Measuring and analysing Levels of Automation in assembly systems - For future proactive systems

    Författare :Åsa Fasth; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LoA; proactive; assembly system; Level of automation;

    Sammanfattning : Production companies frequently have to meet demands and requirements, both internal and external, which trigger a plan for change in different production areas. Smaller batches and shorter time limits for set-ups between products are some of the demands on the assembly systems caused by an increasing number of product variants e.g. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Virtual and Physical Methods for Efficient Ergonomics Risk Assessments - A Development Process for Application in Car Manufacturing

    Författare :Ann-Christine Falck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; car manufacturing; holistic; efficient; virtual; ergonomics; methods; physical; risk assessment;

    Sammanfattning : Work-related disorders and sick leave are well-known common problems in the manufacturing industry. Workrelateddisorders cost both society and the manufacturing industry huge amounts of money every year as aconsequence of poor working environment and assembly-unfriendly products. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Information Requirements in a Proactive Assembly Work Setting

    Författare :Jessica Bruch; Christer Johansson; Johan Karltun; Magnus Wiktorsson; Jönköping University; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Proactive Behaviour; Information; Assembly; Uncertainty; Change; Manufacturing engineering and work sciences; Produktion och arbetsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the increasingly competitive climate, the on-the-job behaviour of an operator becomes more and more essential for the success of a manufacturing company.  In working contexts, which are dominated by changes and uncertainty, knowledge-based behaviour and work role aspects that cannot be formalized, proactive behaviour of the operator can contribute to competitive advantages.
