Abstract— In this paper implemented a creative idea for mistake proofing in the fixture for piston and connecting rod sub assembly. In this paper to reduce the human errors on engine assembly through mistake proofing concept. We focused on the complete engine assembly operation and the tools used. And mainly generate complete knowledge about the total engine assembling operations.To enhance the tooling section and maintenance of the organization. The main objective of this paper reduce the customer complaint and also standardize the way of sub assembly of piston and connecting rod through implementation of mistake proofing based assembly fixture.

Index Terms— Connecting rod, Fixure, Poka Yoke, Piston, Stroke
