Preface
Manufacturing of products is a primary function of industries across the globe. It encompasses
an array of processes such as procurement of raw materials, packaging, supply, etc. This
book unfolds the innovative aspects of manufacturing which will be crucial for the progress
of this field in the future. The topics included herein are of utmost significance and bound
to provide incredible insights to readers. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models
around prospective developments with respect to manufacturing. With state-of-the-art inputs
by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals alike. It will
help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this discipline.
All of the data presented henceforth, was collaborated in the wake of recent advancements
in the field. The aim of this book is to present the diversified developments from across the
globe in a comprehensible manner. The opinions expressed in each chapter belong solely
to the contributing authors. Their interpretations of the topics are the integral part of this
book, which I have carefully compiled for a better understanding of the readers.
At the end, I would like to thank all those who dedicated their time and efforts for the
successful completion of this book. I also wish to convey my gratitude towards my friends
and family who supported me at every step.

A method of meta-mechanism combination and replacement based
on motion study

China
Lacking the effective methods to reduce labor and cost, many small- and medium-
sized assembly companies are facing with the problem of high cost for a long time.
In order to reduce costs of manual operations, the method of meta-mechanism com-
bination and replacement is studied. In this paper, we mainly discuss assembling
motion analysis, workpieces position information acquisition, motion library con-
struction, assembling motion analysis by Maynard’s operation sequence technique,
meta-mechanism database establishment, and match of motion and mechanism. At
the same time, the principle, process, and system realization framework of
mechanism replacement are introduced. Lastly, problems for low-cost automation of
the production line are basically resolved by operator motion analysis and
meta-mechanism combination andmatch.
Keywords: production line;low-cost automation;motion analysis
1. Introduction
Motion Study, also known as motion research, element analysis, or work study, its main
content is seeking the most economical and effective working method through a variety
of analytical methods. It is an effective way to study and formulate correct and reason-
able motion to shorten hours and improve efficiency by increasing valuable movement
and shorten or eliminate waste motion (Du, 2013). Frank Bunker Gilbreth, an American
engineer, established therbligs theory in 1912. The American Society of Mechanical
Engineers added ‘Discovery’ motion and summarized 18 kinds of basic therbligs (Hua,
2012). In the process of analysis of therbligs, operation is observed and divided finely,
and motion sequence is linked with hands, feet, eyes, and head movements in detail
(Hirosea, Dokia, & Kondoa, 2013). Furthermore, operation is recorded and classified by
therblig symbols, and the problems about operating sequence and method, such as
single-hand waiting, unreasonable motion, and waste motion, are found and improved.
The application researches in the country about motion study are mainly focused on the
following four aspects (Wang, 2010):
