Abstract:
The objective of this research were to study and to analyze the production process of bed frame;Fowler category including to study and to find out operation standard time of each bed framein assembly line. It was to study and to analyze cause of depletions occurred in the process andto find out method of productivity. This research was a case study of hospital Equipmentproduction factory in hospital supply section. The result of this study aimed to be utilized forbeing guideline of operation improvement on productivity for its factory and others factorieswhich found the same problem (s). The methodologies of this research were 1)using performance observation, 2)issuing interrogations and 3)recording various events of the operation in cording form for analyzing. It therefore found that in the production line, there were the depletions from unnecessary process and in the assembly line, the depletions also occurred. It caused from unproportioned conditions of the assembly line, limited condition of production technology of the color production process, limited conditions of bottleneck machine of the process, production plan problems which based on experience, and unsystematic production control. Furthermore, it provided the guideline on productivity by improving its operation which were to improve instruments, production method, planning system and production control. The result of improving its operation revealed that it could decrease unnecessary production process and time for 14.81 and 6.20 respectively. Meanwhile, it could increase working time of color baking cabinet for 36.63 %. In case of an operation priority which referred to its minimum time, it could decrease a number of task during the color spraying process. In case of improving the planning system and the production control which had systematic and continuous operation; planning, following up the plan and keeping control on the plan, it could decease the depletions
