Productivity
is a key factor for companies manufacturing parts and sets
to the automotive industry. Automation plays an important role
in this matter, allowing development of entire manufacturing
cells without the direct need of workers. Even in countries
where the labour cost is relatively low, it becomes necessary to improve
the level of automation applied to manufacture
cells and reduce the dependence of the human labour unpredictability, also increasing the quality and reducing the costs. This case study was developed based on an industrial request in order to improve a semi-automatic cell devoted to seat suspension mat manufacturing. The original cell allows several automatic operations but it needs two workers for two specific operations not considered in the initial design. Thus, new concepts of wire feeding and manipulation were developed in order to allow a better material flow throughout the cell. The new cell was designed and built with success, allowing obtain a fully-automated system, which leads to a better productivity and reliability of the manufacturing process.
