Description (French)
La fabrication de faisceaux de fils est un processus exigeant en main-d’œuvre et qui tend à nécessiter des travailleurs au salaire minimum pour être concurrentiel. L’objectif de ce projet est d’examiner d’un œil critique les techniques actuelles de l’industrie en recherchant des possibilités d’accroître l’efficacité de la main-d’œuvre. Le thème sous-jacent sera axé sur les techniques informatiques et d’automatisation qui peuvent aider les travailleurs à être plus productifs. Le résultat souhaité est de mettre au point un processus qui permet d’obtenir un produit dont le prix est concurrentiel et qui peut offrir aux travailleurs un salaire décent.
