Line Balancing Analysis of Hollow Dakota 1730 Manufacturing Process in PT XYZ

Abstract

The existence of operational balance in each production lines may decrease the idle time; it shows that the productivity is increasing therefore it increases the production rate. The issues existed in the production process of hollow Dakota 1730 in PT. XYZ were 3 departments, from the result of the first observation, there was a bottleneck from each department and each production did not achieve the required target. Therefore, this research would fix the production line. The method used was ranked /positional weight. Based on the data processing by the ranked positional weight method, gained the total of work station in the production process of hollow Dakota 1730 by the number of 2 work stations. From the result of efficiency balancing, gained 62.5% and balance delay value was 37.5%. it shows that the balance performance between each department increases significantly.
