Motorcycle, generator and automotive parts companies usually face production pressure from many models and fluctuating batch sizes. The assembly process involves machined parts as well as pneumatic and electrical components. Taizhou Yufeng Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. plans multi-model shared-line assembly lines for such companies to improve equipment utilization and management efficiency.
Multi-model shared-line production
The premise of shared-line production is to analyze the process similarity of products. Common processes are designed as universal stations, and different processes use special modules. Products are assigned to the line according to their process routes. When scheduling, products with similar processes are arranged for continuous production to reduce changeovers. The line is equipped with quick-change fixtures and universal pallets, and changeover time is controlled within the specified range.
Assembly station configuration
The line is configured with parts pre-assembly, main body assembly, pneumatic and electrical part installation, fastening and wiring, function testing and packing stations. The pre-assembly station completes standard parts and seals. The main body assembly station installs the frame and main parts. The pneumatic and electrical station completes pipes, harnesses and sensors, and the fastening station uses torque tools.
Testing and mistake-proofing
The test station is configured according to product type, such as leak testing, electrical function testing and running testing. Test data is recorded automatically and bound to the product number. Mistake-proofing devices are set at key assembly points to prevent missing, wrong and under-tightened parts. Line display boards show production status in real time and handle abnormalities promptly.
Lean production management
The shared-line assembly line works with lean management, including quantitative parts delivery, station standardization and visual management. By reducing waiting, handling and rework, overall efficiency improves. Line data supports continuous improvement and gradual optimization of station balance.
Planning and implementation
We prepare a shared-line assembly plan according to the customer product list, output, factory and existing equipment. During implementation, we provide equipment manufacturing, installation and commissioning, personnel training and ongoing support. For new factories, we can also provide an overall logistics plan together with factory planning.
