Abstract:

Bibliography: leaves 172-184. An analytical approach to the integrated problems of designing the dynamic cellular manufacturing systems layout concurrently with its material flow (handling) requirements, in such a manner that minimises the material handling within the system. The proposed strategy encourages the design of a dynamic layout to identify simultaneously the machine groups, economical machine distribution, and intracell and intercell layouts.

Abstract:

Today the global market is changing to increased competition, short product life cycles and mass customisation. Therefore, the pressure on manufacturing companies to become more flexible in their production has increased. As a response to this increased pressure, many companies have implemented automation solutions to achieve the required flexibility and stay competitive. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly under pressure, because they are usually subcontractors to large companies which trigger and promote high-mix and low-volume production. The literature shows that the

Abstract:

Flexible assembly systems have emerged in response to changing markets and increased variety in form of demands of new products and manufacturer’s need for differentiation. Assembly systems play a critical role in handling great variety and adapting to dynamic changes at the same time as securing product quality and productivity. Therefore, assembly systems should be designed to be able to handle changes. However, the design of flexible assembly systems is a challenge because it involves several subjects such as the configuration of the flow, the material handling and the flexibility to handle

Abstract:

Manufacturing companies are nowadays facing an unprecedented series of challenges to their survival: global competition and product mass-customization are the shaping forces of tomorrow’s business success. The consequent need for agile and sustainable production solutions is the utmost motivation behind the development of innovative approaches which often are not in line with the state of art. It is well documented that companies fail in recognizing how such disruptively innovative approaches can yield an interesting economic output. This, in turn, enhances the risk of leaving the aforemention

Abstract:

In this study, we consider a capacity allocation problem in flexible manufacturing systems. We assume time and tool magazine capacities on the Numerical Controlled (NC) machines and limited number of available tools. Our problem is to allocate the available capacity of the NC machines to the required demand of the operations, so as to maximize the total weight of operation assignments. We formulate the problem as a Mixed Integer Linear Program and show that it is NP-hard in the strong sense. We solve the moderate-sized problems optimally by the available Integer Programming software. We also d

This research is concerned with certain production planning problems associated with flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) with high tool variety. In this environment of FMS, the tool requirements at workstations exceed the respective tool magazine capacities. During an extensive survey of related literature, it appeared that the problems associated with this type of FMS have been overlooked by the FMS research community. The operational problems of FMS are discussed with special reference to the constraints imposed by tooling. The characteristics of the selected FMS type are clearly defined. T

Abstract:

To improve product quality and reduce cost, batch production is often implemented in many exible manufacturing systems. However, the current literature does not provide any method to analyze the quality performance in a flexible manufacturing system with batch production. In this research, we present an analytical method with closed-form formula to evaluate the quality performance in such systems. Based on the model, we discover and investigate monotonic and non-monotonic properties in quality to provide practical guidance for operation management. To improve product quality, we introduce the
