In the context of a field study in a supporting company for the automotive
industry an
analysis of the reliability of visual quality inspections was performed
in the entire
product cycle of wet-painted vehicle parts by introducing manipulated
inspection lots.
Here, both the occurring stress and strain levels as well as the corresponding
subjec-
tive evaluation of the employees referred to it were considered.
The results showed deficits in the ergonomic design of the quality control
workstations, whose elimination would lead to an increase of the currently
low control
reliability. Both, the objective data and the subjective evaluations of
the examiners,
indicate to a necessary improvement of the illumination system and the
test device.
