CALCULATIONS
CALCULATIONS
CALCULATIONS N → The theoretical minimum number of parts t a → Basic assembly time for one “ideal” part t ma → Estimated time to complete assembly of actual product.
CALCULATIONS To determine it, the three questions have been used: THEORETICAL MINIMUM NUMBER OF PARTS (N)
CALCULATIONS To determine it: ASSEMBLY EFFICIENCY
2. REDESIGN OF THE GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY
NEW CASING JOINING THE BOTTOM COVER WITH THE GASKET AND THE PREVIOUS CASING. NOW THE CASING ONLY HAS TWO PINS FOR THE SCREWS.
NAMEPLATE JOINING THE NAMEPLATE TO THE NEW CASING. THE NAMEPLATE IS A RELIEF ON THE NEW CASING.
SPRING SLOT THE SLOT MAKES IT EASIER TO PLACE AND INSERT THE SPRING.
GEAR C/A JOINING THE GEARS C AND A INTO A SINGLE PART.
NEW GASKET AND COVER ONLY HAVE TWO HOLES TO PUT THE SCREWS.
FINAL ASSEMBLY NORMAL VIEW. EXPLODED VIEW.
FINAL ASSEMBLY MORE PICTURES.
