Background: There have been some concerns related to manual handling of large items in industry. Manual handling operations of large sheet metal may expose workers to risks related to efficiency as well as occupational safety and health. Large sheet metals are difficult to move and burdensome to lift/transfer, and handling the sharp sheet edges may result in contact stress and/or cut injuries on the workers. Methods: Through observation, interview, and immersive simulation activities, a few problems related to current handling of sheet metals were identified. A sheet metal trolley-lifter was then designed and fabricated to address these issues. A pilot study on the use of the developed trolley-lifter for handling sheet metals was conducted to compare between the new and traditional handling methods. Results: The pilot study of the trolley-lifter showed promising results in terms of improving the cycle time, manpower utilization, and working postures compared with the traditional handling method. Conclusion: The trolley-lifter offers an alternative solution to automation and a mechanized assistive device by providing a simple mechanism to assist the handling of sheet metals effectively and safely.

Robot Process Automation (RPA) is a computer technology called Robotic Process Automation, a form of business process automation based on the concept of software robots or artificial intelligence (AI) walkers. In general, in traditional workflow automation tools, software developers design software that creates a set of actions to automate tasks and interfaces for the back-end systems using internal APIs or dedicated script languages. However, in RPA software, automation can be implemented by configuring an operating processor as if the general user is directly performing the task of the application. In other words, it can be said that it is a suitable development method for automating simply repetitive tasks rather than developing specific programs in which all necessary functions are implemented, as in general software development. Thus, this is more appropriate for configuring and automating RPA software in traditional manufacturing companies that are not easy to develop and apply smart factories or high-end AI software. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the requirements required at the actual manufacturing companies, focusing on the manufacturer's case in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do, called SinceWin Co., Ltd., and to examine the possibility of RPA software in the manufacturing companies by implementing actual RPA software that supports office automation. Through the research, it was confirmed that the actually implemented RPA software met the requirements of the company and helped manufacturer practice significantly by automating the parts that were worked error-prone and manually periodically.

In large-scale industry such as shipbuilding, aircraft manufacturing, and construction industry etc., it is required to consider two or three-dimensional spatial availability as one of bottlenecked resource constraints. We call this kind of scheduling a spatial scheduling, which considers the dynamic spatial layouts of objects as well as the traditional resource constraints. Since 1991, we have researched on the spatial scheduling for shipbuilding plant (Lee & Lee, 1992; Lee et al., 1994, Lee et al., 1995). In this paper, we present the various issues of spatial scheduling for the researchers and developers attacking spatial scheduling problems.

Excellence of the Korean traditional paper(Hanji) can be proved by literatures and legacies handed down from generations. However, with the problems pertaining to a majority of traditional manufactures, Hanji industry was declined because of low productivity, insufficient supply of raw material , and reduced demand. therefore, modernizxation of the Hanji technology and development of new uses are very important. This study was carried to investigated the papermaking characteristics of Morus spp.(M.alba, M.Bombycis, and M.Ihou) for new Hanji, modernize manufacturing process of Hanji by grafting on developed modern pulping and papermaking technology, develop the various uses, and establish the foundation for development of high value-added products. Hanji is made from M.Ihou, while stalk , and sulfomethylated pulp gave better sheet formation and higher brightness than those of the others. Physical properties of Hanji which made from bast fiber pulps were better than those of whole stalk pulps. Hanji which made from M.bombycis bast fiber and whole stalk pulps were not so good sheet strength as other species. Sulfomethylated whole stalk pulps were shown better sheet strength than alkali and alkali-hydrogen peroxide whole stalk pulps.

Today's manufacturing industry is facing challenges from advanced difficult-to-machine materials (WC-Co alloys, ceramics, and composites), stringent design requirements (high precision, complex shapes, and high surface quality), and machining costs. Advanced materials play an increasingly important role in modem manufacturing industries, especially, in aircraft, automobile, tool, die and mold making industries. The greatly-improved thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties of the material (such as improved strength, heat resistance, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance), while having yielded enormous economic benefits to manufacturing industries through improved product performance and product design, are making traditional machining processes unable to machine them or unable to machine them economically. In this paper, mechanical characteristic evaluation test of fine powder type WC-Co alloy was accomplished to obtain clear data for miniaturized special die parts machining with high reliability and high quality.

본 연구에서는 담양 죽제품과 여주 도자기 산지를 사례로 재래공업 존립의 중요한 요소인 산지내 사회적 분업의 실태, 특성 그리고 의의를 밝히고자 하였다. 산지내 사회적 분 업은 주로 원자재조달과 제품생산, 제품생산과 제품판매간에 이루어지고 있으며, 생산공정상 의 사회적 분업 및 제품생산 부문과 그 관련시설, 기계제작 부문간의 사회전 분업은 부분적 으로 이루어지고 있다. 그 성격에 있어서는 담양 죽제품산지는 산지완결형의 그리고 여주 도자기 산지는 미산지완결형의 특성이 강하다. 그리고 사회적 분업체계를 구성하는 기업들 은 독자성을 가진 수평적 분업체계를 유지하고 있으나 수요변화에 적극적으로 대응하기 위 한 신제품의 개발과 판로개척을 선도할 수 있는 기업이 밭달하지 못하고 있다. 산지존립에 있어서의 사회적 분업의 의의로는 생산공정의 세분화와 업종분화를 통해서 노동력 부족을 극복함과 동시에 생산비를 절감할 수 있고 소자본의 신규참여를 용이하게 하고 경기변동에 따른 위험부담을 분산하며 다방면에 걸친 축적된 노-하우를 활용한 업종과 제품의 전환을 통하여 제품의 다양화와 제품수명주기가 연장된다는 점을 들 수 있다.

This research aims at the improvement of the manufacturing productivity of . kitchen furniture industry. W company deals with the orders of 2 types - the one is the batch order for mass production, and the other is the order of a customized single set. But, because the company has a single manufacturing system appropriate to mass production despite of the above 2 types-orders, the problems of increasing work-in-process, throughput time and material handling time were resulted in, and the overall productivity was generally low. We proposed a new material handling method to substitute the traditional one, the rearrangement of facility layout, and the introduction of a proper outsourcing method. This research results in about 80% increase in production quantity in the same period.

본 연구는 주변 농촌지역인 전남지역에서 제조업의 존립기반과 입지적 특성을 고찰하였다. 먼저 제조업 입지에 관한 이론적 논외를 검토하여 주변지역에서의 입지특성을 파악하고, 전남지역의 공간적 선행성을 분석한 후 중소기업과 독점적 대기업으로 구분하여 각각 입지적 존립 특성을 확인하였다. 전남지역은 1차산업의 비중이 놀은 농수산업지역이다. 식민지 시기에는 농업에 대한 수탈이 심하여 지역자본이 축적되지 못한 곳이며, 공업화 시대에는 수도권 및 미 일 중심의 지리적 축에서 벗어나 개발이 정체되었던 곳이다. 따라서 영세한 토착성 기업이 제조업의 주류를 이루고 있으며, 자본집약적인 소수 대기업이 독점적 산업공간을 형성하고 있다. 영세한 토착기업은 농수산물과 지역시장에 기반하여 존립하고 있다. 농수산물 식품가공업과 건축자재의 비금속업이 대부분을 점하고 있지만 점차 단순한 조립 및 화학업종이 증가하여 업종구조가 다양하게 발전하고 있다. 이러한 현상은 광주시 주변지역으로부터 내륙농촌지역과 해안지역으로 점차 확대되고 있다. 철강, 화학 등 소재생산 중심의 독점적 대기업의 입지는 지역제조업의 발전을 추동하지 못하고, 지역산업과는 폐쇄적으로 독점적 산업공간을 이루고 있으며, 에너지, 용수, 용지의 다수요 제조업으로서 자연환경에 영향을 미치고 있다. 따라서 향후 전남지역은 포드주의적 대량생산 분공장이 제조업 성장을 주도하면서 주변지역의 특성이 재생산 발전될 것으로 전망된다.

스피닝 공정은 축대칭의 얇은 두께를 가지고 있는 속이 빈 실린더형 단면을 가지고 있는 부품에 일반적으로 사용된다. 전통적인 스피닝 제작 기술은 컨벤셔널 스피닝과 파워 스피닝(전단 스피닝과 유동성형)으로 구분된다. 액체추진로켓의 연소기의 재생냉각 챔버와 확대노즐부에서 적용된 스피닝에 대한 문헌조사를 수행하였다. 연소실과 노즐의 제작에 사용되는 스피닝은 대부분 맨드럴을 사용하였다. 최근에는 전통적인 냉간 스피닝에 비해 열간 스피닝도 많이 사용되고 있었다.
