Abstract

This article discusses the development of a search and inspection kit for small equipment and tools used in Lumentum International (Thailand) Co. Ltd. HRS Pump production line. The objectives were to 1) develop a search and inspection kit for small equipment and tools used in the HRS Pump production line; 2) assess the efficiency of the search and inspection kit; and 3) determine the user satisfaction level utilizing the developed search and inspection kit for small equipment and tools. The research tools include 1) iBeacon technology-based search and inspection kits for small devices; 2) an assessment form for experts; and 3) a satisfactory assessment form for users. The findings revealed that 1) the test result of a search and inspection kit for small equipment and tools in the HRS Pump production line, including an iBeacon transmitter, scanner receiver, data store, and web display, is within the acceptable range; 2) the qualitative testing result from experts revealed that the developed search and inspection kit is efficient; and 3) the users were most satisfied with the developed search and inspection kit. It can be concluded that this developed search and inspection kit for small equipment and tools used in the HRS Pump production line can be operated in actual industrial applications and the technology installed in the developed kit has no effect on other equipment and tools, and promotes faster and more efficient work.
