Abstract :
The target of the study is the assembly line of lamp in one company. We analyze the producing process in detail. We found that there existed some problems such as bottleneck process and unbalanced line. To solve these issues we used the MOD method in work study as well as ECRS principle. The new plan merged and simplified the entire operating process, reduced workers and increased the rate of production line balancing.
