Description
Summary:The optimization of the parts and assembly manufacturing operation was carried out in order to minimize both the time and cost of production as appropriate. The optimization was made by using the Taguchi method. The Taguchi method is based on the plans of experiences that vary the input and outputs factors. The application of the Taguchi method in order to optimize the flow of the analyzed assembly production is made in the following: to find the optimal combination between the manufacturing operations; to choose the variant involving the use of equipment performance; to delivery operations based on automation. The final aim of the Taguchi method application is that the entire assembly to be achieved at minimum cost and in a short time. Philosophy Taguchi method of optimizing product quality is synthesized from three basic concepts: quality must be designed into the product and not he product inspected after it has been manufactured; the higher quality is obtained when the deviation from the proposed target is low or when uncontrollable factors action has no influence on it, which translates robustness; costs entailed quality are expressed as a function of deviation from the nominal value [1]. When determining the number of experiments involving the study of a phenomenon by this method, follow more restrictive conditions [2].
