Abstract:
A new method for quantity configuration of escalator linear profile in SAP system is proposed. This method is to create the calculation formula of the assembly length of escalator linear profile according to the characteristic value of escalator, the requirements of assembly process and the technical specification of packaging and transportation, and then optimize the configuration method in SAP system. It avoids the waste caused by the SAP system configuration of 6 m long profile that needs to be cut to the actual length, which reduce the scrap rate of escalator assembly profiles. It provides an example to reduce manufacturing cost by improving the configuration in SAP system without change of assembly process.
Key words:    escalator    profiles    configuration    optimize    SAP system
