Line Balancing

Distribute work content evenly across assembly lines to eliminate idle time and bottlenecks.

Expected Financial Impact:

The Operational Bottleneck

Unbalanced work allocation causes line operators to wait on slow stations while others are overworked, resulting in line starvation and low headcount efficiency.

Common Floor Challenge:

Our Floor Implementation Approach

We follow a rigorous, hands-on methodology to execute changes on your lines. Here is exactly what we do:

  1. 1
    Step 1: Break down assembly tasks into element work content times.
  2. 2
    Step 2: Determine Takt time based on customer demand rates.
  3. 3
    Step 3: Reallocate work elements to achieve smooth pitch and minimal balance delay.
  4. 4
    Step 4: Design single-operator multi-station work patterns where suitable.
  5. 5
    Step 5: Validate line balance with trial runs and standard work sheet documentation.

Assembly Line Balancing & Layout Optimisation

Financial Impact:

Uneven work allocation across 14 sub-assembly stations caused severe line starvation, operator idle time, and low daily throughput.
