Rajat Saxena completed a summer internship where he was assigned various tasks. He completed standard operating procedure documentation for mast assembly, designed a new layout for the fabrication shop to improve workflow, conducted a time study for the EOS mast assembly process, designed a table for bench vise installation and a new hose support system, calculated the center of gravity for a tilt table, and performed a time and motion study for oil filling processes on the Kibo truck. He also analyzed the costs of making versus buying pre-cut hoses and provided suggestions to improve scheduling and safety for sensitive machines.

17. Time Measurement
Used stop Watch to measure the time.
Machine Time
Loading & Unloading Time
Average time
Challenges faced
Shift Changes
No specific schedule followed by the
supervisor
Machining time is different for similar cut
Operator has to wait for the forklift to flip the
part.

Approach
18. Advantages
• Reduce waste of time
• Forklift Operator can see the flag from
any part of the plant.
• It is also helpful for the maintenance
department
18
Suggestion-4 Flag interpretation to call forklift operator to avoid
time waste
19. Formula Used
Momentum
M1R1 + M2R2 = (M1 + M2)R
R = M1R1 + M2R2/ (M1 + M2
Moment of body A
Area of square / 2 * Area of triangle
10 *38.05/8 *38.08 = 5/4
Mass of rectangle = 5/9*500 =277
Mass of two triangles = 500- 277 =223
Center of gravity with reference to plane A
C.G. of the body A
= (277 * 19.04 + 223 * 12.69)/ 500 =14.3
C.G. of the whole body (A and B)
= (268 * 40.08 + 500 * 14.3)/768= 23.29
Center of gravity with reference to plane B
C.G. of the whole system (A+B+C)
= ((12+5)*4500 + (272+23.29)*(500+268))/
(500+268+4500) = 57.75

Hanging hoses create disruption
during the processes.
Hose- Stand in not utilized well
Existing are not perfectly aligned
Hoses are entangle with each other
