二十一世紀是個資訊時代，顯示器應用在人類的視覺感官與溝通橋樑間所扮演的介面功能愈形重要。最近五年來TFT-LCD(薄膜電晶體-液晶顯示器)顯示器產品價格的下滑，使應用面快速的擴展。依目前現有的技術來看，以TFT-LCD為主流，但顯示新技術經過不斷的研發與測試，也陸續進入市場應用階段，目前以自發光性不須背光源、結構簡單的有機發光二極體(Organic Light Emitting Diode, OLED)在未來消費市場的應用最受矚目。台灣與韓國是全球TFT-LCD顯示器生產的主要重鎮，但在新顯示器OLED面板技術研發、生產線投資及量產規模則遠不及韓國廠商。面板產業面臨的競爭，台灣廠商想在其間生存下去，必須持續不斷提高生產力。 本研究以減少等待生產時間、減少動作時間並消除浪費等TPS生產原則，嘗試運用工作研究，以方法工程中的時間研究做為主要分析工具，應用於OLED面板製造個案公司之生產流程，分析及探討如何利用時間研究找出個案公司之生產流程中產生的時間浪費及改善機會。由本研究結果顯示，透過時間研究及工作設計，可以找出OLED面板製造公司之生產流程改善機會，引導OLED面板製造公司進行生產力提升改善。The 21st century is an information age, and the applications of display as an interface in human visual senses and communication become increasingly important.In the last five years, TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor - Liquid Crystal Display) display product prices dropped, so the application has been expanded rapidly.In the current technology, TFT-LCD is the mainstream. The new display technologies with continuous research and development and testing also enter the market application stage gradually. The display which is self-luminescent, do not need backlight, and simple structure is the most attractive in the future application of the market. That is the Organic Light Emitting Diode body (OLED).Taiwan and South Korea is the main center of the global TFT-LCD display manufacture, but in the new display OLED panel technology research and development, production line investment and production scale is far less than South Korean companies. Panel industry is facing competition; therefore, Taiwan companies must continuously improve productivity for survival. This study uses TPS production principle and tries to reduce the wait for production time, to reduce operating time and eliminate waste. We use the “time study” of methods engineering as the main analytical tool in the production process of the OLED panel manufacturing in our case company. This study analyze and explore how to use the time study to find out wasting time generated in the production process of the case company, and opportunities for improvement. The results of this study show that, through time study and work design, the production process of the OLED panel manufacturing companies can find opportunities for improvement and guide the OLED panel manufacturing company to improve productivity.
