Advanced Manufacturing Ergonomics
specialised ergonomic solutions for advanced manufacturing environments that integrate advanced automation systems, digital technologies and robotics.
What is Advanced Manufacturing?
Unlike traditional assembly lines optimised for mass production, advanced manufacturing focuses on flexible production of complex, customised products. These environments require highly skilled operators working with sophisticated technology systems.
The integration of digital technologies, robotics and automation creates unique physical and cognitive demands. Operators require different skills, work in more complex environments and interact with sophisticated systems all requiring specialised ergonomic consideration.
Unique Ergonomic Challenges
Technology Integration - Seamless interaction between operators and automated systems
Assembly - Component handling requiring fine motor skills and visual acuity
Digital Interface Design - Complex control systems, multiple displays and data analysis tasks
Cognitive Demands - Problem-solving, monitoring multiple systems, and rapid decision-making
Human-Robot Collaboration - Ergonomic design of shared workspaces where humans and robots work together safely and efficiently
