INTRODUCTION
This report describes the methodology followed by Team
Demons to analyse and prepare optimized mass
manufacturing of an all-terrain vehicle. The purpose of this
manufacturing is to manufacture an ATV with robust,single
seated off-road durable vehicle intended for sale to the
week-end off road enthusiast and off road routine
consumers. It also describes the BoM, assembly sequence,
Organization workflow, plant layout,etc.to highlight the
manufacturing unit.

welding and joining techniques such as spot welding,
Metal base- Aluminium is used due to its light weight.

Ovearll methodology
The assembly of a car: assume that certain steps in the assembly line are to install the engine, install the hood, and
install the wheels (in that order, with arbitrary interstitial steps); only one of these steps can be done at a time. In
traditional production, only one car would be assembled at a time. If engine installation takes 20 minutes, hood
installation takes five minutes, and wheels installation takes 10 minutes, then a car can be produced every 35
minutes.In an assembly line, car assembly is split between several stations, all working simultaneously. When a
station is finished with a car, it passes it on to the next. By having three stations, three cars can be operated on at the
same time, each at a different stage of assembly.
After finishing its work on the first car, the engine installation crew can begin working on the second car. While the
engine installation crew works on the second car, the first car can be moved to the hood station and fitted with a hood,
then to the wheels station and be fitted with wheels. After the engine has been installed on the second car, the second
car moves to the hood assembly. At the same time, the third car moves to the engine assembly. When the third car's
engine has been mounted, it then can be moved to the hood station; meanwhile, subsequent cars (if any) can be
moved to the engine installation station.
Assuming no loss of time when moving a car from one station to another, the longest stage on the assembly line
determines the throughput (20 minutes for the engine installation) so a car can be produced every 20 minutes, once
the first car taking 35 minutes has been produced.
Quality. This is the department that insures that every piece we make is at our standards. They run tests on all
the aluminum that comes in. They test pieces that our suppliers send us. They are in charge of designing and
implementing the system of checks that workers on the factory floor must run. They are also responsible for
maintaining the stock of thousands of calipers, each capable of micron-level measurement, and keeping all of
them properly calibrated. This department pulls a few pieces from every lot for testing, tests them with some very
sophisticated equipment, and doesn’t let the lot out unless those pieces pass those tests.The Quality department
also has the ISO 9001 officer, who is responsible for reading the materials from ISO 9001 and making sure that
we comply. However, the ISO qualification has to do with how the whole business is run, not just Quality, which
means that often the officer wants to give directions to the upper management that would otherwise be quite out
of line.
Sales and Purchasing. There are surprisingly few of these people, because the parts we make more or less sell
themselves. Although they sometimes go to trade shows, they do almost no formal marketing. Their job is more
following orders through than it is trying to get people to buy, which is why they also do the buying. Finally, they
are the people who read our customer’s plans for the year, and it is based on those goals that sales goals and
initial production schedules are made.
IT. These guys are like the plumbers of the company. If any computer has any sort of issues, they’re the guys
who will come and fix it.
Environmental Health and Safety.Technical Planning (also known as Engineering). Before a new part goes into
production, a lot of design has to go into it. These guys work with our customers to develop test parts, which they
then send to the customers. Based on the customer’s response, they will then either redesign it, or send the
specifications to Production. Also, they are responsible for buying all of the equipment, ensuring that it can run to
our specifications, and training representative staff from Production.
Corporate Support. All of the administrative support for the whole company. This includes…
Translation and interpreting. A lot of the engineers are from Japan, and both our parent company and our
customers are Japanese. So a lot of interpreting has to happen, both between the engineers from Japan we
have, the tech reps who come for only a few months, the auditors who sometimes come from Japan, and the rest
of the company.
Payroll. HR. The paperwork that has to be done when someone gets hired or fired. The cars that the guests from
Japan drive have to be bought, serviced, and fueled, and we pay for it. We liaise with the hotels that we put
Japanese guests in. We put up bulletin board displays. We answer the phones when someone calls. We do all of
those fiddly little things that keep the company running.
Accounting. These people count up all the money spent anywhere in the company, and how much money we
have. They give the OK or the red light if any department wants to spend more than its budget for the month.
They calculate how much each piece costs to make, and at what prices we must sell them for. They read the tax
code every year and make sure that when we do our taxes, we do so in accordance with the law. If there’s any of
that reading or counting up they can’t do, they send the work to large accounting firms.

Knuckle-Hub
Due to complex design and higher manufacturing cost, knuckle and hub were decided to manufacture inside our own facility.
Milling, turning and various operations will be performed in a CNC machine to produce the required parts. Various quality checks
and inspections will ensure proper manufacturing of the component.
Wishbone-Tie rod
Suspension and steering links are easy and inexpensive to manufacture which will reduce the overall cost of manufacturing
hence where decided to manufacture in house. Operations like notching and welding will be used for the manufacturing of the
components.
Components like Dampers, Brake callipers, nuts and bolts etc are hard to manufacture but easily available outside at lower cost.
So, to reduce manufacturing burden, they were decided to buy from suppliers.
