The Challenge
To build a highly complex, manually built, engine assembly – while being aware of the number of operators, product quality, production rate and timing constraints
How We Did It
Jendamark designed and manufactured the manual engine assembly lines, powered by ODIN Workstation
Final Results
- Improved processing/assembly capabilities
- Improved production rates
- Lowered scrap and rework rates
- Multi-operator tool sharing features enabled to allow for multiple operators to work on the same engine unit simultaneously
- Enabling dynamic change to the output of the line without introducing additional shifts
Other Benefits
- Line flexibility assisted in reducing the total cost of introducing new variants by up to 50%
- The ability for multi-operator tool sharing increased the line output by a staggering 80%
- The assembly line, with integrated software allows for immediate process improvements and aligns with continuous improvement best practices
- Easy to add, update and change existing product assembly processes
