Measurement and Quality workplace
Complete solution for a better measurement & quality station
The measurement and quality station is a workplace that is usually located next to the machine park. Here, components are picked out to be checked, measured and inspected, where the requirement for focus and precision is great. Employees often experience problems with the lighting, partly because it is too poor, but also because of glare and reflections.
Many employees also feel that the work table is not stable enough, making it a challenge to achieve the required accuracy in measurements. Other comments are that the workplace gets dirty quickly or that measuring tools tend to disappear. In our workplace solution, we go through common problems and provide relevant solutions.
The result is the Type Workplace Measurement and Quality Station - a purchasable complete solution for those who want a Measurement and Quality Station suitable for today's modern industrial environment.
Our approach to finding the right solution
Have you ever experienced problems such as poor lighting, back and neck pain, or a workplace that is difficult to adapt to different people and needs? These are some of the most common problems in assembly workplaces across industries.
To help you solve the problems, we work based on the Gigant model - a proprietary method in three steps; analysis, solution and deployment. In step one, we define the problems and improvement opportunities that exist in your workplace, where we at Gigant can come out to you and do this on site. Based on these three steps, we develop a solution, and in step three we deploy and evaluate it.
When you buy a Typeworkplace, there are two ways to go. Either you choose a ready-made solution where much of the work is already done and can be easily adjusted to your needs.
If you have a particularly unique problem that requires a more complex solution, we also have the option of conducting a thorough analysis of your needs and then tailoring the solution.
Whichever route you choose, the result is the same: an end-to-end solution tailored to your needs that optimizes your entire workplace in one go. A simple way to increase profitability.
With over 30 years of experience, we know what works
Over a long period of time, we have accumulated knowledge about what makes a good industrial workplace. When we develop our workplace solutions, we therefore do so based on the problem areas where we have our expertise and where we know which are the most common problems, areas such as noise, ESD or load ergonomics, etc.
Our areas of competence are the expertise that drives us to a solution, which we land using the Gigant model.
For the measurement and quality station, we work according to the following problem areas
Ergonomics of loading
When the demand for focus and precision is high, this in turn requires a stable workplace solution, but also solutions for how to avoid excessive static loads.
Candles
At the measurement and quality station, the requirement for accuracy is particularly high because small deviations need to be readable. This requires plenty of light, from different angles and without glare or reflections.
Noise
Noise can affect work performance and interfere with the focus required at a measurement and quality station. Therefore, workplace solutions that reduce noise are important.
Shielding
There are certain steps that require particularly high levels of cleanliness. With the right shielding, some of the dirt is kept out and cleaning is made easier.
Material handling
When the components have no fixed location, but are moved to the measurement and quality station to be checked, it requires a well thought-out material handling, to ensure that the transportation is done in the best possible way.
Lifting
Moving the components under inspection in and out of the measurement and quality station involves a lot of heavy lifting. This must be done in a way that does not cause damage or excessive strain.
Storage
The need for storage at the measurement and quality station is slightly different. Therefore, the most important thing is that the storage can be adapted to your needs.
5S
With many tools and components to keep track of, 5S plays a significant role in this workplace. It is also important to bear in mind that both fixed and mobile solutions are required.
