A Guide to Fixture Design for Revisiting "Difficult to Use" on Site with Universal Design
This is a technical document aimed at re-evaluating "minor inconveniences" and "difficult-to-use" aspects from the perspective of universal design, based on the know-how cultivated in the field of automatic machine and jig design. It summarizes checkpoints for designing jigs that are easy to use for elderly individuals and those with or without disabilities in settings such as nursing care, welfare facilities, and light work environments. By incorporating examples such as code winding jigs and braille embossers, it clearly explains design innovations that lead to reduced workload, improved safety, and fewer mistakes, making it useful not only for considering new jigs but also for improving existing ones.
