Abstract

The production process of acoustic guitars in Indonesia involves 4 workstations and 17 distinct activities. Due to the nature of the work—8-hour shifts in seated positions with frequent bending, squatting, and repetitive movements—workers are at risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), particularly in the neck, shoulders, back, arms, and wrists. This study aimed to identify and analyze body posture conditions using the Nordic Body Map (NBM) and Muscle Fatigue Analysis (MFA) methods. The NBM method was used to record pain complaints across various body parts, while the MFA assessed muscle fatigue by considering the level of effort, work duration, and movement frequency. Results from the NBM showed that among the workers, 2 were at high risk, 3 at medium risk, and 7 at low risk for MSDs. The MFA further identified 3 workers with very high to high-priority fatigue concerns, specifically affecting the neck, back, shoulders, right arm, wrist, and legs. To address these issues, the study recommended redesigning work facilities and layouts using the SolidWorks application, along with implementing regular muscle stretching and exercise routines to minimize the risk of MSDs and improve worker well-being.

Abstract

Using an Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP) during the Industrial Revolution 4.0 is a long-term investment for companies looking to enhance efficiency, performance, productivity, and decision-making capabilities. Typically, ERP systems employ a centralized database to streamline various business processes, reducing manual labor and improving workflows. These systems often include a Dashboard that provides real-time data for measuring productivity and profitability. Updated instantly when entered into the system, this information allows companies to make quick, informed decisions based on accurate, up-to-date internal data. However, discrepancies between transaction processes, such as mismatches in the quantity of goods recorded in the SAP system and actual production, can hamper the effectiveness of ERP control. To address this, research has been carried out to process information in real time and with greater accuracy. The study involves a literature review, hardware prototypes, and program development, ultimately leading to increased SAP user accuracy from 63% to 86%. This improved accuracy helps identify factors hindering optimal SAP performance and provides recommendations for resolving transactional issues. Ultimately, consistency and commitment from users and relevant stakeholders are vital for maintaining an optimally functioning ERP system.

Abstract

Warehouses have an important role for companies, including PT. XYZ located in Karawang. This research aims to optimize truck queues in the loading and loading process at PT. XYZ uses a discrete simulation approach with ProModel software. The problem of long truck queues and high delivery order (DO) waiting times disrupted the operational efficiency of distribution facilities. In this study, 3 simulation scenarios were tested to evaluate the impact of adding loading docks on throughput, waiting time, and resource usage by removing the Delivery Order (DO) waiting time. The data collected includes loading and loading process time, namely truck arrival data, warehouse information data, transport truck information data, and product information data implemented using ProModel software and then validated through replication tests and validity tests using the t-test method. The simulation results show that using scenario 1, the addition of one loading dock increases throughput by 45% and reduces the average wait time from 18 minutes to 9.3 minutes per truck. In addition, the use of resources becomes more optimal, increasing overall productivity. With these results, the study concludes that the addition of loading dock is an effective solution to overcome bottlenecks in the loading process at PT. XYZ, which can be implemented to improve operational efficiency.
