Abstract

Occupational Ergonomics related aspects have a significant impact in the manufacturing world, from Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD) to quality issues; it is an important knowledge domain in manufacturing organizations.
This paper presents a new decision tree called Ergo4All™ aimed at giving ergonomic guidance to manufacturing engineers while designing workstations in 3D. Combined with the Smart Posturing Engine™ (SPE™) technology, which generates posture automatically in a 3D environment, Ergo4All™ analyses the potential risk of developing MSD by workers. It then provides guidance to the user on changes to the workstation that will lower the ergonomics risks.
The goal of this decision tree is to provide simple ergonomic guidance to engineer that do not have training in ergonomics.
The Ergo4All™ decision tree was designed as a rapid assessment tool for people designing workstations early in the virtual design process. This by no means replaces the expertise of a certified ergonomist.
