Agile and flexible manufacturing systems make it mandatory that a control program should have features such as agility, flexibility, and reusability in order to run manufacturing unit smoothly. PLCs are the most frequently used control program in manufacturing systems. PLC programs are mostly programmed by subcontraction, which makes correction of code very difficult. As a result, it may cause delay during down time and ramp up time which leads to big loss of revenue and goodwill. To prevent delay during the times, this paper proposes systematic process analysis and application method for programmable logic controller like LLD (Ladder Logic Diagram). The proposed method uses modified human-error investing techniques for documentation and transforming technique to program LLD from the documentation. Furthermore, this paper demonstrates an example of piston mechanism to explain the proposed method.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to introduce the structure and functions of an application developed for enhancing risk knowledge/perception, called KNOWRISK, and to identify and determine problems and requirements based on the usability evaluation results of the application. Method: The evaluation was conducted using the Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS) with a sample of 43 application users and related experts. Result: The application received a satisfactory evaluation score with an overall average of 4.074 points, and there was no significant difference in evaluation scores between experts and users. The highest score was for ease of use at 4.47, while the lowest score was for cost payment usage at 2.88. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that efforts to increase risk knowledge and promote safe behavior using a mobile application can be an effective and efficient strategy for preventing industrial accidents and enhancing safety management.

A zero voltage soft switching inverter using active clamp is presented for induction heating application. This converter have long been attractive because of its simplicity, high efficiency, and low cost compared to other schemes. In addition to those merits, Input power factor can be improved with a variable frequency control. In this paper, it describe the control method and operational principle to improve a power factor with a single stage US converter using active clamp for induction heating application.

Fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication supports low latency of up to 1 ms or less, 20 Gbps of data rate, and more than 1 million connections. With these technical advantages, machines and equipment can be precisely adjusted, allowing 5G to be applied to industrial applications. To expand the industrial application of 5G wireless communications, major countries have introduced dedicated 5G, allowing specific companies to build and use 5G directly. Germany, UK, and Japan allocate 100 MHz, 416 MHz, and 1,200 MHz, respectively, of bandwidth dedicated to 5G. Companies with local licenses from the government are expected to accelerate the application of 5G at a low cost and low-frequency range. Therefore, Korea should introduce private 5G to foster 5G-related industrial ecosystems and successfully implement the fourth industrial revolution.

The trouble of business management of the mining and manufacturing companies in Korea are constituted by that average 28.3% of production management in the worst trouble of business management from 1973 to 1980 So that Industrial productivity in Korea lower than an industrially advanced nation and then a change for the better of effective production management operations manufacturing companies are suggested by the application effects and achievement points of production management. Therefor Industrial Engineering technics is applied systematic route and the manufacturing company grow more than better its Business Physical condition for the improve productivity applied system approach for a rational product ion management system model.

This paper discussed the following. 1. After reaching the final phase of an oil-based society, a resource-saving and -recycling "Methane Energy-based Society" will come about because of limited natural resources. 2. Industrial Infrastructure Technologies which support the Methane Energy-based Society will cause a paradigm shift in the area of industrial, transportation and civilian sectors. 3. The Non-communication application technology of microwaves plays an important role as one of the core element technologies which comprise new industrial infrastructure technologies.

This paper deals with an application of process value analysis method for a manufacturing process in order to redesign facility layout in a paper company. We have used the value analysis method which permits an overall and rigorous study of process by a functional approach. Firstly, customer's expectations for the future process are clearly and precisely expressed with specifications of the Functional Extern Analysis. The existing process is analyzed using various tool of the Functional Internal Analysis in the second part. From the results of these analysis, we find out that the main problems of current facility are due to scheduling and facility layout. This paper is devoted to resolve the second problem. We suggest an ideal solution in order to have a reference solution. Nextly, We give realistic choices and the final solution for the facility layout.

This parer proposes application of quality costing system in quality improvement area. Cost of quality in quality improvement area provides a valuable of both providing the need for improvement and giving a starting point for project. WQCMS(Web-based Q-Cost Management System) have ability to collect and analyze quality data generated from various different departments in the inside or outside of the enterprise without any limitations, if end-users are able to access wide area network. It provides the capability to integrate quality information from database and to generate various easy analysis reports to management's needs using built-in analysis tool modules with real-time. Web-based quality cost management system to measure the performance of quality improvement activities in the business firms. This paper proposes standard model for quality cost process in quality improvement area.

The existence of Internet revolutionized the computer and communications world. With the rising demand for accessing the Internet, the mobile technology has incorporated the use of Internet in mobile phones. Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) has combined two of the widest utilized technology today: mobile phones and Internet. This study aims to assess the existing WAP pages offered by the top service providers in the Philippines through usability testing experiments. The paper also aims to identify existing problems in WAP interface by focusing on the errors committed by the users. From the usability study, it was found out that common usability problems are wrong selection of links, unclear grouping of categories, wrong feedback, and redundant links. The type of service provider used is significant in determining the performance of users while experience in accessing WAP is insignificant.
