Automated production lines are currently the preferred choice for more and more manufacturers. Automated production lines are very different from ordinary production lines. Automated production lines are generally designed according to the characteristics of the products produced, and the content of the design plan should be more comprehensive. So what aspects of the automated production line design plan should start? Production line manufacturer Guang Shengde shares here.

1. The design of automated production line should choose a reasonable means of transportation

The means of transportation of automated production lines generally refer to conveyor belts. According to the product interval length and the actual situation, calculate the speed and length of the conveyor belt.

Second, the design of automated production lines should consider the layout of production

The graphic design of the automated production line should ensure that the transportation route of the parts is the shortest, the production workers are convenient to operate, the auxiliary service department is convenient to work, the most effective use of the production area, and the mutual connection between the production lines should be considered. The locations of the production line involves the interrelationship between the production lines. It should be arranged according to the order required for assembly of the processed parts. The overall layout should consider the problem of material flow, so as to shorten the route and reduce the transportation workload.

Three, the design of automated production lines should develop a standard plan instruction chart

According to the repeated production of each worksite on the automated production line at a certain tempo, the standard plan instruction chart of the production line can be customized to indicate the production line production standard, work system and work procedure, etc., which is the plan for the production operation Provide basis for compilation.

Fourth, the design of automated production lines must determine the production beat

The beat of an automated production line is the time interval between the sequential production of two identical products, which can indicate the productivity of the automated production line and is the most important working parameter of the production line. When the parts processed on the production line are small and the beat is only a few seconds or tens of seconds, the parts must be transported in batches. At this time, the time interval between two batches of the same product is called the rhythm, which is equal to the product of the beat and the transportation batch. . When the automated production line is used to transport products in batches, if the batch is large, although the transportation work can be simplified, the amount of products occupied by the automated production line will increase accordingly.

Five, before the design of the automated production line, it is necessary to organize the synchronization of the process and the work place (equipment requirement)

After the tempo of the automated production line is determined, the process must be adjusted according to the tempo, so that the time of each process is equal to or an integral multiple of the tempo of the automated production line. This work is called process synchronization. Process synchronization is a necessary condition for organizing assembly lines, and it is also an important method to increase equipment load and labor productivity, and shorten production cycles.

6. The design of the automated production line must first determine the number of workers required for the assembly line and provide a reasonable number of people

After the number of processes in the automated production line is determined, the number of workers required on the assembly line can be calculated. Achieve a reasonable number of workers, without staff redundancy.

7. evalsuate the economic effect of production line organization before design

The economic effect indicators of automated production lines mainly include: product output increase and growth rate, labor productivity and growth rate, savings in working capital occupation, product cost reduction and reduction rate, additional investment payback period, annual comprehensive savings, etc.
