This paper intends to discuss some findings from a study of TPM practices in manufacturing organizations Malaysia. Total productive maintenance (TPM), resource-emphasized approach moves the paradigm by putting emphasis on total employee involvement activities.We studied relationship between and performance. We investigated moderating effect level technical complexity production process performance relationships as well. Significant were found cost.We also

The objective of this research is to develop a method for designing customised pressure garments that can be more accurately applied burn wound area. includes the use 3D digital image wounded body part obtained by scanner and development garment model 2D pattern. scanned data contain detailed information cannot feasibly manual measurements, such as curvature. parameters include exerted, fabric properties radius curvature cross-sections parts. By using model, pattern developed, then,...

Purpose This paper aims to develop 3D-printed customized padding increase pressure at the zero region. is specifically intended for facial areas with complex contours in therapy treatment of hypertrophic scars. Design/methodology/approach To carry out this study, a full-face head garment was fabricated by local occupational therapist, and measurements were conducted establish exerted determine Furthermore, an additional manufacturing method used construct padding, performed measure after...

Pressure garments are tight fitting elastic which apply pressure to the wounded area of human body for treatment. The primarily designed exert on a particular part body. Thus, only correct level wound assists healing process, therefore it is important right affected part. distribution model enables manufacturer or therapist predict that garment applies without requiring an in-situ measurement. This novel, powerful and useful tool. It can also identify locations have high low pressure.

The paper highlighted a new method that can be used to construct customised compression garment for athletes. must able exert high pressure on the ankle and become lower towards knee. was generated using 3D data of an athlete's body segment obtained by non-invasive non-contact measurement system. Then, novel modelling approach taking into account properties fabric, how much exerted curvature parts. model then flattened 2D pattern design. Finally, experiment conducted validate outcome...

In modern power system protection, an accurate transformation of primary short circuit current is vital to ensure correct operation the high impedance Restricted Earth Fault (REF) protection scheme used for transformer protection. The dc component in fault as well remanent flux cans causes severe saturation conditions if not selected correctly. Behavior during transient condition important this will determine stability REF scheme. This paper discusses how remanence phenomenon beside can and affects

This paper reports a computational method to develop silicon padding be inserted into the low pressure areas of custom designed garment obtain more uniform distribution. The was developed by using digital scanned data patient body. paddings and corresponding garments are constructed for number subjects, experimentally tested verified comparing measured customized with without padding. results show that made help increase close specific design in regions, leading much application whole...

Malaysia is a country that has borders close to 3 countries, namely Thailand, Indonesia and Singapore. This strategic location helps take advantage of cross-border trade involving these three countries. As result, there are several sea land ports built near the countries facilitate international with neighbouring However, facilities available at seen be reaching maximum level utilization accommodate existing cargo capacity transited before being sent nearby port. study was conducted for...

This study investigated chemical treatment’s impact on mechanical and flammability properties of rice husk-reinforced recycled high-density polyethylene (r-HDPE) composites. Three treatments (maleate, alkali, acid) were applied to husk, composites tested for tensile strength, elongation at break, modulus elasticity. Results showed that strength decreased with increasing husk content, except treated maleic anhydride grafted (MAPE), which exhibited the highest 10% filler content. Break...

This study measures and analyses pressure generated from the two different fabrics used as head garments with a face mask made Silon-LTS® (Low Temperature Splinting) underneath garment. A sensor was to measure using mannequin. In addition, modulus of elasticity is determined standard tensile test for fabric. The results shows that fabric gives output by applying garments, increases at certain areas.

Malaysia holds the position of being Thailand's primary trading partner within ASEAN region and ranks as fourth largest overall. The bilateral trade between these two nations in 2020 amounted to nearly RM80 billion. seaport has emerged a preferred hub for exporters from Thailand. Nevertheless, current cross-border inland port, known Padang Besar Inland Port (PBCT), exhibits constraints its operational capacity. rapid expansion economy southern Thailand, along with increasing need freight...

This paper reports a pressure distribution model that will predict the applied by garment onto wounded body segment which could facilitate production of custom made garments. The is generated using 3D data patient are obtained non-intrusive non-contact measurement system. circumference calculated from scanned digital data. Then, reduction factor to determine in order apply design specific fabric with an experimentally determined modulus elasticity circumferential direction. radius curvature...

Body measurement is the first process that must be encountered before any custom-made compression garment can designed. The current practice of obtaining by traditional methods using tools like measuring tape. However, this method considered to time-consuming and usually not accurate. most popular solution problem non-contact measurement. development 3D whole body scanner has made become a reality due its capacity capture vast amount information. cost buy quite expensive. Moreover, their...
