This study presents layout of facilities and equipment for production and assembly of helicopter cockpit. Authors suggested several variants of layout and consulted company with the use and applicaion of the best solution. Veplas introduced the best solution in their production facilities.
F.14 Improvements to existing production methods and tools or processes
COBISS.SI-ID: 13373974European Manufacturing Survey is the biggest European research on production activities. The coordinator is Frauhofer Institute from Germany with 10 European countries. The survey comprises 4000 answers from manufacturing companies. The questions deal with the use of organisational and technical innovation concepts, production off-shoring, production services, production strategies etc. The results are very benficial to SLO companies for comparing with other countries. The results should be of great interest also for government to prepare national strategies in the field of manufacturing.
