【IBMBA】比一般企業實習做更多 學生化身廠房設計諮詢顧問
2016-04-14/原文作者:Mariandrea Hernández and Ariana Ohana(IB學生)
IBMBA「企業諮詢方法與實作」課程是由宋兆賢老師和王謙老師教授,課堂中會將本地生及外籍生打散分組,並分別進入不同在地企業,幫助他們改善或解決問題。由IBMBA學生Ariana Ohana, Una Shih, Chun Hsiang Hsu and Mariandrea Hernandez組成的隊伍「A.M.U.S」日前則是進入三左興業股份有限公司(Sanctity Corp. Ltd.)擔任諮詢小組,主要協助改善新工廠的設計,以提高生產力和產品效能。
三左興業主要生產工業用或危險環境使用的防爆電器燈具與設備,總部和銷售部門設於高雄,生產工廠則設於雲林。三左也被視為台灣生產防爆燈具、防火設備、消防設施、散熱管和換熱氣的領導企業。
「A.M.U.S」團隊將以企業提供的廠房設備實際數據、課堂所學商管知識,加上使用3D設計軟體Autodesk® Factory Design Suite輔助,預計將由今年六月交出最適合三左興業工廠設計的計畫。藉由這個軟體可以預視新廠房的空間限制,在增加生產設備之餘,還能使增加新設備後與舊設備壓縮空間的風險最小化。在分析現有數據以及設計完成之後,他們也將對設備安裝的結果以及生產作業進行模擬。

From Students to Factory Design Consultants for a Semester
April 14, 2016/Mariandrea Hernández and Ariana Ohana
IB612 “Consulting Methods and Practices” is a business program class offered by the IBMBA program and coordinated by Dr. Wang Chien and Dr. Sung, Chao -Hsien.
This course opened the opportunity for both local and international MBA students to form four consulting groups in order to help real enterprises located around Taiwan to improve and/or solve firm related issues.
The consulting group A.M.U.S ing Inc, for example, comprised of team members Ariana Ohana, Una Shih, Chun Hsiang Hsu and Mariandrea Hernandez, is currently collaborating along with the guidance of two professors with the improvement and the design of a new factory layout for San Tzuoo Corporation.
San Tzuoo Corporation or Sanctity Corp. Ltd. is a Taiwanese company with multiple locations around Taiwan that provides electrical lighting products for the use of hazardous and industrial commodities. San Tzuoo headquarters’ and sales office is conveniently located in Kaohsiung, Taiwan with a manufacturing facility in Yunlin. San Tzuoo Corp is also considered Taiwan’s leading manufacturer of explosion proof lights, flame proof devices, fire-fighting equipment, fin tubes and heat exchangers.
San Tzuoo’s CEO Po-Yi Li has requested the services of A.M.U.Sing Inc. to redesign and organize the factory’s layout in order to improve productivity and increase product efficiency.
A.M.U.S ing Inc. is creating a new layout of the factory according to real measurements given by San Tzuoo and quantity of equipment being used with its capacity. The consulting group is using their business knowledge learned in class as well as a 3D program called Autodesk Factory Design Suite to generate the most suitable design for the firm’s factory, which will be delivered in June 2016.
Currently, the project is still in progress, but with the support of San Tzuo Corporation, the consultant team will be visiting the factory for a second time on Friday April 15, 2016 to complement the provided information and to complete the 3D factory design layout.
The team will also use this 3D AutoCAD Software to analyze the clashes and space restraints within the new factory. This way, it will minimize the risk of clashes between equipment that have been already installed and new incoming equipment to improve the manufactory work flow.
The factory design software will also maximize the production line by finding the most efficient footprint possible for the installation of the assembly line. After the design and analysis has been finalized, the team plans to simulate the installation sequence of the equipment and to simulate the manufacturing operations of San Tzuoo’s main product line.
