Abstract

Abstract: In order to prevent potential occupational disease in automobile front cover assembly location caused by manual handling, a comprehensive evaluation and improvement method of ergonomics was proposed aiming at front cover assembly work ergonomics based on DELMIA. The ergonomics problems in automobile front cover assembly were evaluated quantitatively and comprehensively by using the methods of rapid upper limb assessment (RULA) and lifting equation analysis (NIOSH), and the process or tools were judged whether they should be improved according to the evaluation results. By simulation, analysis and improvement of front cover assembly work, the improvement plans which aimed at the ergonomics problems of front cover assembly work were proposed with ergonomics theory. It can be seen from the simulation results and work time of before and after improvement that the effect is obvious and work fatigue is reduced.

Key words: simulation, ergonomics, evaluation, improvement, automobile front cover, assembly
