Abstract:
SUMMARYOnly hardware and software flexibility combined can yield the overall system flexibility required in newly designed FMSs in which the expected part mix is quite large and continually changing.The paper shows how modular design and integration are fundamental steps in software design for the management and control of FMSs. The main subsystems of a control system, built up by putting together a number of standardized modules requiring little or no customization, are also described. An experimental control system designed according to these criteria is also presented.

Abstract:
The complex interaction and the high costs of modern manufacturing systems make it necessary to evaluate their use performance. Production scheduling problem is one of the key problems of research of manufacturing systems since with a proper scheduling, the utilization of resources is optimized and orders are produced on time which improves the shop performance and associated cost benefits. However the complexity of modern production systems makes the use of analytical tools more difficult. Thus a computer simulation model of the existing computer integrated manufacturing system based on the control logic that describes the operation of the system is developed to test the performance of different scheduling rules with respect to mean flow time, machine efficiency and total run time as performance measures. According to the results of experiments, the model agrees with the real system.

Abstract:
In the context of Industry 4.0, flexible manufacturing systems play an important role. They are designed to provide the possibility to adapt the production process by reacting to changes and enabling customer specific products. The versatility of such manufacturing systems, however, also needs to be exploited by advanced control strategies. To this end, we present a novel scheduling scheme that is able to flexibly react to changes in the manufacturing system by means of Model Predictive Control (MPC). To introduce flexibility from the start, the initial scheduling problem, which is very general and covers a variety of special cases, is formulated in a modular way. This modularity is then preserved during an automatic transformation into a Petri Net formulation, which constitutes the basis for the two presented MPC schemes. We prove that both schemes are guaranteed to complete the production problem in closed loop when reasonable assumptions are fulfilled. The advantages of the presented control framework for flexible manufacturing systems are that it covers a wide variety of scheduling problems, that it is able to exploit the available flexibility of the manufacturing system, and that it allows to prove the completion of the production problem.

Abstract:
A hierarchical methodology is developed for the overall design of manufacturing systems. The methodology consists of solutions to four levels of problems, namely, (1) manufacturing system selection, (2) shop loading, (3) machine loading and tool allocation, and (4) testing the feasibility of a schedule and determining strategies for the operational control of the system. Although these problem levels are developed in a hierarchical sense, they can be applied independently by assuming appropriate inputs to the problem level under consideration. The third and the fourth level problems are addressed in this research for the flexible manufacturing system. The first level of the hierarchical methodology addresses the problem of manufacturing system selection. The mathematical 4 model formulated for this problem captures the basic and integrated relationships among the systems and system components. This model provides a practical approach and a precise tool to determine an optimal mix of systems, to assign appropriate machines to each system, and to select the best material handling system for each system to best suit long-term production requirements at minimum costs. The second level of the hierarchical methodology addresses the shop loading problem. A mathematical model is developed for partitioning parts among the manufacturing systems selected at the first level to minimize total operating costs. For the third level problem, a mathematical model is formulated to obtain routings of parts through an FMS and to assign appropriate cutting tools to each machine in the system to minimize total machining cost. For the fourth level problem, a simulation model is developed for testing the feasibility of the solution obtained at the third level. It also helps to determine strategies for the operational control of the system. The computational experience with the mathematical models is presented using the MPSX-MIP/370 package. Sensitivity analysis is also performed to further understand system behavior under various operating conditions. Several new findings of the research are reported. Because of the special structure of the mathematical models, a computational refinement for their solution is also proposed based on Lagrangian relaxation.<br>Ph. D.

Abstract:
In highly flexible and integrated manufacturing systems such as those in semiconductor manufacturing, there exist strong dynamic interactions between the equipment condition, operations executed on the equipment and the resulting product quality. These interactions necessitate a methodology that integrates the decisions of maintenance scheduling and production operations. Currently, maintenance and production operations decision-making are two decoupled processes. In this paper we aim to devise an integrated decision making policy for maintenance scheduling and production sequencing with the objective of maximizing an adaptive profit function, while taking into account operation-dependent degradation models and a production target. In order to obtain the optimal decision policy, a metaheuristic method based on the results of discrete-event simulations of the target manufacturing system is used. The new approach is demonstrated in simulations of a generic cluster tool routinely used in semiconductor manufacturing. The results show that jointly making maintenance and production sequencing decisions consistently outperforms the current practice of making these decisions separately.

Abstract:
A real-time scheduling method considering human operators has been proposed to generate suitable production schedules for human operators, manufacturing equipment and jobs real-timely in the autonomous distributed manufacturing systems (ADMSs). The proposed scheduling method gives the higher priorities to the human operators, and generates the production schedules based on preference values, in order to improve the human operator’s motivation. It was shown, through case studies, that the proposed real-time scheduling method is effective to satisfy the preferences of the human operators. However, the make span is deteriorated especially for the cases where the human operators have similar preferences. Therefore, a new method is proposed to calculate the preference values considering not only the preferences of human operators but also improvement of productivity.

Abstract:
This study is an examination of the effect of agent-based autonomous production scheduling, using the virtual factory on multi-agent simulation system. In the autonomous manufacturing system, a production plan is generated autonomously and dynamically, using communication and negotiation between agents that correspond to factory components. As infrastructure software for agent based manufacturing, the artisoc(c) is used as multi-agent simulator system. In this virtual factory, three types of agents are equipped. Users can operate a configuration such as input new jobs, adjusting a machine setting, etc, with monitoring conditions of agents. Additionally, this simulator has capability of input and output files such as assembly process schedules and logs of practical operations. As a result, by adjustment of the agent’s behavior with factory floor detail, the assembly schedule becomes more effective. The experiment was carried out to show that local negotiations contribute to global optimization when resources in the factory are effectively distributed and shared.

Abstract:
In order to help manufacturing companies quantify and reduce product carbon footprints in a mixed model manufacturing system, a product carbon footprint oriented multi-objective flexible job-shop scheduling optimization model is proposed. The production portion of the product carbon footprint, based on the mapping relations between products and the carbon emissions within the manufacturing system, is proposed to calculate the product carbon footprint in the mixed model manufacturing system. Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II) is adopted to solve the proposed model. In order to help decision makers to choose the most suitable solution from the Pareto set as its execution solution, a method based on grades of product carbon footprints is proposed. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed model and algorithm are examined via a case study.

Abstract:
This paper presents a simulation study aimed at evaluating the performances of a typical Flexible manufacturing system (FMS) problems in terms of make span, average flow time, average delay time at local buffers and average machine utilization, subject to different control strategies which include routing flexibilities and dispatching rules. The routing strategies under evaluation are ‘No Alternative Routings (NAR)’; ‘Alternative Routings Dynamic (ARD)’; and ‘Alternative Routings Planned (ARP)’. The ARP rule was introduced into the FMS and coded with C++ program. The above routing strategies are combined with five dispatching rules and studied in different production volumes. Since an FMS usually deals with a variety of products, effects of changing the part mix ratio are also discussed. Simulation study was performed by using ARENA software. Finally results indicate that the ‘alternative routings planned’ strategy outperforms other routing strategies in general.

Abstract:
Abstract As companies increasingly customize their products, move towards smaller lot production and experiment with more flexible customer/supplier arrangements, such as those made possible by Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), they increasingly require the ability to (1) respond quickly, accurately and competitively to customer requests for bids on new products and (2) efficiently work out supplier/subcontractor arrangements for these new products. This in turn requires the ability to (1) rapidly convert standard-based product specifications into process plans and (2) quickly integrate process plans for new orders into the existing production schedule to best accommodate the current state of the manufacturing enterprise. This paper describes IP3S, an Integrated Process Planning/Production Scheduling shell for agile manufacturing. IP3S utilizes a blackboard architecture that supports (1) concurrent development and dynamic revision of integrated process planning/production scheduling solutions, (2) maintenance of multiple problem instances and solutions, (3) flexible user-oriented decision making, (4) declarative representation of control information, (5) the use of a common representation for exchanging information, (6) coordination with outside information sources and (7) portability and ease of integration with legacy systems. IP3S has been validated in the context of a large and highly dynamic machine shop at Raytheon’s Andover manufacturing facility. Empirical results show an average performance improvement of 23% in solution quality over a decoupled approach to building process planning/production scheduling solutions.
