Abstract
In a bakery, an operator needs a working tool for bread production process. To avoid injury and inconvenience the tool should be suitable and appropriate for the operator’s body posture and workload. Operators’ assistive device produced is trolley rack. Value engineering approach is carried out on this tool to identify and develop its functions in achieving the balance among cost, reliability and appearance of the product. The work-plan is divided into several development stages: creative stage, analysis stage, development stage and recommendation stage. Product value is determined by comparing between product benefits and product costs. This study employs Function Analysis System Technique (FAST) method which consists of 5 stages, namely information, creative, analysis, development and presentation/recommendation stages. The recommendation stage explains the best alternative design. The results show that alternative II has the highest performance value which is 97.16 and the highest rating of 0.45. It is rated as the best design and has good product durability.
