Question

i would appreciate to know how this would be tackles and how to input data in excel

thank you

(10 pts) You are analyzing a kitting & packaging operation at a local manufacturing facility. At the workstation, the workerfills empty totes (10 lbs) with the correct mix of parts from the drop delivery chutes and sends them down a conveyor to the shipping area. When full, the operator can place 20 pounds into the empty tote. The operator stands and twists his upper body when moving full tote to conveyor (see angle). The operator works approximately 4 hours per day. The standard work instructions are: • Fill the tote according to the product mix sheet. Parts chute and bin Parts contained in parts chute and bin. Pick up the full tote from the workstation. Since no hand holds, assume grasp tote from top of tote by pinching in the middle of tote. Place it on the conveyor (12" high). At the origin and the destination, hold the load very Parts chute and bin close (tote nearly touching torso, but hands mid-way along bottom of box). The pace is 4 totes per minute for an 4-hour shift. Conveyor 12H LII 30 deg Complete the assessments listed below. Please asses the common lift in the figure for each Composite Lifting Assessment. Start from the top and work your way down and fill in the table. For both 1981 and 1991 NIOSH, provide a worksheet showing your calculations.

Answer 1

RWL = LC(51) x HM x VM x DM x AM x FM x CM

1. Occupational Ergonomics

2. M means multiplier

3. Individual multiplier defines specific weakness in the design.

4. Load constant(LC) of 51 pounds represents the maximum recommended load under ideal condition
