Tolerances have to be consistently tight when you\u2019re assembling wire harnesses for a jet fighter\u20141\/8 of an inch over 32 feet to be exact. An assembly workstation that can\u2019t accommodate such tolerances would not be acceptable.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s one of the problems that a jet aircraft manufacturer faced when it determined it needed to upgrade a facility. Another problem was the ergonomic failings of its old system. It was using pieces of plywood on A-frames for the assembly of extremely elaborate wire harnesses. This not only affected tolerance levels but also led to potential technician stress, strain and fatigue.\"8<\/a><\/p>\n

Harnessing an ergonomically sound solution<\/strong><\/p>\n

The jet fighter manufacturer consulted Pro-Line<\/a> of Haverhill, MA, a company recognized as a leader in modular ergonomic workstations, renowned not just for its rugged, technologically advanced workstations, but also for its ability to \u201cthink on the fly\u201d and produce, application-specific solutions, Pro-Line delivered Electric Wire Harness Workstations, each retrofitted with a range of accessories.\u00a0 Pro-Line modified its existing technology with new technologies to produce a solution that was ergonomically sound, provided maximum functionality, and met all of the jet manufacturer\u2019s specs.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the range of easy vertical movement provided by the Pro-Line system, along with the tilt, all sections of the wire harness are always within easy reach.\"EWH7236\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Since this initial installation, this jet plane manufacturer has added new accessories to its workstation system, and is currently in the process of expanding its operation with additional Pro-Line workstations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
