The automobile industry is representative industry of complex characteristics, which employing 10 million people, the largest manufacturing industry over $1 trillion in sales and assembling with 20,000 parts to make complete automobile and automobile assembly processes have a lower automation rate than other processes, which is labor intensive processes of assembling to painted body with 3,000 components such as seats, built-in, instrument panel, glass, engine, transmission units. However, the current assembly process does not have real-time monitoring. If a tool position tracking system is adapted to assembly process for directing consistent work order and checking for missing work, the productivity and quality improvement of the assembly process can be achieved by preemptively preventing possible defects in the assembly process. So, this paper aims to develop a Tool Position tracking system using UWB(Ultra Wide Band) with trilateration and proves their effectiveness for real-time monitoring of automotive assembly process.

In manufacturing productivity analysis, understanding the intricate interplay among factors like facility performance, layout design, and workforce allocation within the production line is imperative. This paper introduces a simulation-based methodology tailored to food manufacturing, progressively expanding scenarios to analyze production enhancement. The target system is a food processing plant, encompassing production processes, including warehousing, processing, subdivision, packaging, inspection, loading, and storage. First, we analyze the target system and design a simulation model according to the actual layout arrangement of equipment and workers. Then, we validate the developed model reflecting the real data obtained from the target system, such as the workers' working time and the equipment's processing time. The proposed model aims to identify optimal factor values for productivity gains through incremental scenario comparisons. To this end, three stages of simulation experiments were conducted by extending the equipment and worker models of the subdivision and packaging processes. The simulation experiments have shown that productivity depends on the placement of skilled workers and the performance of the packaging machine. The proposed method in this study will offer combinations of factors for the specific production requirements and support optimal decision-making in the real-world field.

Analysis of risky behavior factors for workers in the manufacturing industry enables effective human error prevention and systemization of an efficient safety management system. This study examines the relationship between the effects of workers' work psychology, work environment, and work deviation factors on risky behavior intentions and the effects of such risky behavior intentions on risky behaviors. Among the small and medium-sized manufacturing industries, the analysis was focused on a survey of 80 workers in the manufacturing and processing industry. Looking at the results, it was found that work psychology and work deviation had an effect on the intention of risky behavior, but the work environment factors corresponding to job satisfaction and workload did not affect the intention of risky behavior. The relationship with colleagues, the degree of satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the job, the degree of importance of the job that the worker feels, and the tightness of time to digest a large amount of work do not affect intentionally inducing dangerous work, but they do affect risky behavior. In the absence of intention, the work environment factor was found to accompany dangerous behavior.

This paper deals with the development of manually operated die used for the manufacture of octagonal boxes into two sets of automated die. In particular, theoctagonal boxes are used fur the switch boxes intended fur the cable conduit of buildings or f3r wiring connection. Manufacturing these boxes requires forming the materials using the primary press before they undergo 2nd through 6th processing by the press machine including the four sides of the octagonal outlet box and bending. Such complicated process hikes up labor cost, slows down production, and results in defect rate of $10\%$ or higher; hence the overall rise in manufacturing cost. Moreover, workers avoid this type of work due to the roar and vibration coming from the press and the risk of accident. To eliminate such phenomenon, a CAM die made by integrating five sets of die into one set of die and an automatic conveyor system were developed. As a result, unmanned work was realized with only two units of press and two sets of die; thus solving the problem of work being avoided and saving on manufacturing cost.

With the advent of the 4-th industrial revolution, manufacturing companies have increasing interests in the realization of smart manufacturing by utilizing their accumulated facilities data. However, most previous research dealt with the structured data such as sensor signals, and only a little focused on the unstructured data such as text, which actually comprises a large portion of the accumulated data. Therefore, we propose an association rule mining based facility error pattern extraction framework, where text data written by operators are analyzed. Specifically, phrases were extracted and utilized as a unit for text data analysis since a word, which normally used as a unit for text data analysis, is unable to deliver the technical meanings of facility errors. Performances of the proposed framework were evaluated by addressing a real-world case, and it is expected that the productivity of manufacturing companies will be enhanced by adopting the proposed framework.

This study performed a microbiological hazard analysis, which is required for the application of HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) system to Pteridium aquilinum and Platycodon grandiflorum. The manufacturing process was made by referring to the typical manufacturing process. Based on microbiological hazard analysis, grandiflorum root contained $6.2{\times}10^3CFU/g$ of bacteria, which has the largest amount of bacteria among the agricultural materials. On the other hand, microbiological hazard analysis of the raw materials and after the disinfecting process of confectionery showed a safe result. A microorganism test of the manufacturing environment and workers suggests that the microbiological hazard should be reduced through systematic cleaning, disinfection and accompanied by personal hygiene based on hygiene education for workers.
