Description
This capstone project, Inlet Spools Fixtures and Time Savings Analysis, focuses on the lack of fixtures and alignment of weldolets on the inlet spool. Designing a fixture for inlet spools ensures the precise and efficient alignment of weldolets, ultimately saving time and reducing costs. A time study is first conducted on the current process, followed by the design and development of a new fixture, concluding with testing and analysis of the results. The newly developed fixture streamlines the alignment of weldolets and allows workers to begin tack welding immediately, securing them in place. This improvement significantly reduces production time and labor costs.
