Abstract

In this chapter, the author has established the Body Auto Fitting Model (BAFM) developing NJ-GPM (New Japan Global Production Model) based on the innovative deployment of Advanced TPS, Strategic Production Management Model. Therefore, the author has realized innovative unmanning of the fitting line by integrating the technologies utilizing BAFM, a model designed to achieve worldwide uniform quality and production at optimal locations. The keys to successful global production such as robotics, vision systems, bolt tightening, product quality management, and the ability to automatically fit and fasten door, hood, and luggage compartment panels to the car body was achieved. This study shows the development of the following three items: (1) panel fitting accuracy, (2) automatic bolt tightening, and (3) integration into flexible assembly line at an advanced car manufacturer Toyota.
