Objects and Production aid
In the AviX analysis system all components are classed as value objects or fixation objects. The degree to which productivity is affected depends on the type of object that is handled. Value objects have a fundamental function in the final product. This means ...
Setting Standard Times to Work Operations
Standard Times A standard time is allotted to the object, based upon the distance that the object or production aid is moved and the difficulty in moving/handling the object or production aid. AVIX consists of four standard classes: Standard Class Eq...
Setting Standard Times to Movements
When an operator cannot carry out a specific task within arms’ length, the operator must move. A standing operator has a reach of about 70 cm. When something is outside this reach, a movement must occur. These movements do not add any value to the product, but...
AVIX FMEA
When AVIX is running switch to FMEA perspective (module) through pressing on the FMEA-icon in the top center menu. The default layout of AVIX FMEA looks like below. Analogous to other AVIX modules the window layout can be customized, to return to default layou...
Process FMEA
Either a workstation or a process plan is a valid selection to perform a process FMEA. Under the icons in the FMEA-window the analyzable objects created in other modules of AVIX appear. Neither workstations nor process plans or tasks can be created in the FMEA...
Design FMEA
Watch video: Design FMEA To perform a Design FMEA, first select the FMEA module (perspective) and then the (D)FMEA tab. In the (D)FMEA tab you will see a flat structure of all your parts. The design FMEA can’t work with this, so you first need to c...
Built-in logic and features
There are quite few features in AVIX FMEA in order to enhance the quality of the analysis, to reduce the time consumed when performing the analysis and to reduce the RPN systematically. Some of these features are described below. Balancing The analysis info...
Control Plan
Watch video: Control plan The Control Plan is describing methods to prevent or detect failures. An FMEA, where risks are mapped and analyzed shall always be connected to a Control Plan. To support this, a Control Plan was automatically created at the ...
Follow-up – Result and Reports
There are two interesting reports that can be printed after completing a FMEA analysis:the FMEA report and the Action report. The FMEA report is available under the print icon when a row in the Function column in the FMEA is selected. First select a line, a ...
File Synchronization
The file sync functionality lets the user sync data from other AVIX files/resources. This is useful functionality when working with big and/or multi-user process libraries. Watch video: File synchronization Using multi-user process libraries often re...
Approval status
The approval status is a complement to the file sync functionality. When using approval status, the tasks in the process library and in the method tree (the usage of the process definition) is decorated depending on their status. If e.g. the process owner has ...
Language settings
There are two separate kinds of language settings in AVIX. They control the application language and multi-language behavior respectively. Application language settings By default, AVIX runs in the same language as the computer’s operating system. On the Lan...
The ergo module in AVIX
Watch video: ERGO assessment Watch video: REBA assessment Users familiar with the “Method” module in AVIX will see that the outline in the Ergo perspective (module) is very similar. When AVIX is running you switch to Ergo perspective (module) ...
AVIX Resource Balance
AVIX Resource Balance is a balancing module where all data from AVIX Method are gathered. It is possible to ”build” production lines including all necessary data to be able to balance the work load between workstations. Open the Balance module by clicking ...
Relations view
Rules added will be viewable in the sub-section “rules” of the relations tab. This can be used for getting a quick overview of the rules set in the process. Rules can be deleted here by selecting the rule and clicking the red cross or pressing DEL key
Balance result view
Watch video: Analyze the balance result Balance result is a numeric presentation of the line/variant/variant mix balance. The result consists of four sections; Time, Utilization, Takt and Resources. Each section contains a number of columns, some are a...
Product variants
Watch video: Work with variants, manually without variant code A product line-up often contains different product variants, and this highly affects the balancing since different variants contain different amount of work (tasks) to be carried out durin...
The SAM module in AVIX
Users familiar with other time analysis modules (AviX Method etc) in AviX will see that the outline when using SAM is identical. When AviX is running you switch to Method perspective (module) by pressing The default appearance of AviX SAM looks like below....
Extended variant handling (variant codes)
Watch video: Create variant codes Instead of manually selecting/de-selecting task for different variants, it’s possible to use a more advanced product specification letting AVIX creating the specific variant. A variant code is a symbol or a designat...
The UAS module in AVIX
Users familiar with other time analysis modules (AviX Method, AviX SAM etc) in AviX will see that the outline when using UAS (Universal Analysis System) is identical. When AviX is running you switch to Method perspective (module) by pressing on the Method-ico...
