Human-Centered Simulation in Educational Production Line for Industry 5.0 Ergonomics Application

This research presents a human-centered simulation study of an FAS200 SMC educational production line where Tecnomatix Process Simulate Human software has been chosen to develop and model the human virtual environment in the Industry 5.0 field. Focusing on a defined working methodology, it is enhanced by studying the ergonomics through RULA method to evaluate the posture of the operator working in the production line, obtaining reductions of 40 percent in the RULA index for each workstation. Finally, a new human-centered search and approach is performed in ergonomics in order to achieve the well-being of man working with machine, with high possibilities of transfer to the industrial fabric.
