As computer components become smaller the analytical methods used to examine them and the material handling techniques must become more sensitive, and more sophisticated. We have used microbulldozing and microchiseling in conjunction with scanning electron microscopy, replica electron microscopy, and microprobe analysis for studying actual and potential problems with developmental and pilot line devices. Foreign matter, corrosion, etc, in specific locations are mechanically loosened from their substrates and removed by “extraction replication,” and examined in the appropriate instrument. The mechanical loosening is done in a controlled manner by using a microhardness tester—we use the attachment designed for our Reichert metallograph. The working tool is a pyramid shaped diamond (a Knoop indenter) which can be pushed into the specimen with a controlled pressure and in a specific location.

Nowadays, the Industry 4.0 concept affects every area of the industrial, economic, social and personal sectors. The most significant changings are the automation and the digitalization. This is also true for the material handling processes, where the handling systems use more and more automated machines; planning, operation and optimization of different logistic processes are based on many digital data collected from the material flow process. However, new methods and devices require new solutions which define new research directions. In this paper we describe the state of the art of the material handling researches and draw the role of the UMi-TWINN partner institutes in these fields. As a result of this H2020 EU project, scientific excellence of the University of Miskolc can be increased and new research activities will be started.

Facility layout is integrated planning of the flow of a product in an operating system to obtain the most effective and efficient interrelation between workers, materials, machinery, and equipment as well as handling and transferring materials. A company engaged in furniture manufacturing has a problem in its production process, namely, the distance between machines is too far so that it affects the cost of handling materials. Distant workstations are found on profile machines, milling machines, measuring machines, cutting machines. Therefore, improvements must be made to the layout of facilities on the production floor so that facility layout is efficient and material handling costs are reduced. The problem-solving approach used is the Graph Method and CRAFT Algorithm. The results of the research show that material handling costs are reduced by 7.58% or Rp. 17,765 using the CRAFT algorithm.

Niosh Lifting Equation

Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation (RNLE) merupakan sebuah aplikasi yang dibuat oleh National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) yang merupakan sebuah institusi di Amerika yang mengembangkan perangkat penilaian dalam bidang keselamatan dan kesehatan kerja. Salah satu aplikasi yang dikembangkan dinamakan Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation Single Task yang digunakan untuk menguji aktifitas pemindahan barang tanpa perpindahan posisi kaki. Aplikasi yang dibangun akan memberikan penilaian terhadap sistem kerja yang dilakukan oleh seorang pekerja. Salah satu hasil perhitungan dari aplikasi tersebut adalah nilai Lifting Index (LI) yang menyatakan tingkat resiko pekerjaan. Aplikasi RNLE dikembangkan dengan dasar program Microsoft Office Excel. Rumus perhitungan untuk mendapatkan nilai LI dan parameter yang diperlukan disediakan oleh NIOSH dan dapat dipelajari. Penelitian ini mengembangkan rekomendasi perbaikan sistem kerja pada aplikasi RNLE dengan menggunakan program Microsoft Office Excel. Rekomendasi perbaikan yang diutamakan adalah posisi awal benda dan posisi akhir yang sebaiknya diatur sedemikian sehingga mengoptimalkan kemampuan pekerja. Cara optimalisasi yang bisa dilakukan dengan merubah salah satu nilai parameter masukkan tanpa merubah nilai yang lainnya.
