Abstract

Disc Brake is a commonly used component in vehicles. It is used as a braking
device to stop a moving vehicle. According to research, Malaysia being a car
manufacturing country does not have any major disc brake manufacturing plant.
Therefore, Malaysia is still depending on China and Taiwan to cater the spare part
market demand for disc brakes. This project aims to theoretically apply the concepts of
forecasting, process selection, modelling machining configurations, designing plant
operations and modelling a quality control inspection plan to build a manufacturing
system that is capable of producing certain amount of disc brakes. The manufacturing
system is designed in a best possible way to cater the demand of market where a few
cases of implementation have been considered. The operating systems proposed in the
report can be used on a long term provided that the assumptions made are still
applicable. The results of this project shows that the manufacturing systems design will
be able to handle huge demands of disc brake with very few improvements. This has
been proven by using the WITNESS Simulation. This project is a theoretical application
and there are a lot of room for a more robust and optimum upgrades.
