Zusammenfassung

This paper describes an approach to optimize workstations for manual assembly systems with high product variances by applying a set of methods in a structured manner. The main goal is to optimize workstations in terms of their efficiency and ergonomics. Therefore, this contribution provides an extensive analysis in the field of assembly efficiency and ergonomics. Based on the results, optimized concept versions are designed and evaluated by simulation. The favored concepts are presented to assembly workers prior to a cardboard engineering workshop. In the workshop, assembly workers build and optimize their own workplace with cardboard material. The workshop results lead to a final layout for implementation. The methodology has been implemented using the example of terminal strip assembly. A digital e-ink labeling system has been applied to ensure an efficient and ergonomic material arrangement. The use of a holistic methodology has resulted in a measurably more efficient and ergonomic workstation, which also uses digital technologies to support these positive effects.
