Abstract:To stand apart in today’s globalized world and to survive cutthroat competitions, manufacturers are in dire need to find ways to reduce production times and cost. This generation is more conscious about cost reduction, which leads one of the construction equipment industries to come up with a new model of Double drum compactor machine (DD) for their customers. The aim of the project is to increase the efficiency of workstation, minimizing the failures and thereby increasing the productivity in the assembly line. In order to obtain the productivity and reducing the time taken, some fixtures design is required for assembly line. In this paper, the concept of fixture design has been obtained by using SOLID EDGE software along with load calculations with mechanical formulas.
