The paper presents the results of a research work regarding the effective design of an assembly line for heaters production. Considering that the real plant stili doesn't exist, simulation has been used as cognitive tool. After the modeling and the VV&A phases the simulation has been used for carrying out ergonomic analyses for each assembly line workstation. The simulation results highlight problems conceming high stress levels for some workers (due to legs bending) and ergonomic risks related to lifting tasks.

Abstract
The paper presents the results of a research work regarding the effective design of an assembly line for heaters production. Considering that the real plant stili doesn't exist, simulation has been used as cognitive tool. After the modeling and the VV&A phases the simulation has been used for carrying out ergonomic analyses for each assembly line workstation. The simulation results highlight problems conceming high stress levels for some workers (due to legs bending) and ergonomic risks related to lifting tasks.File in questo prodotto:
