Study Notes
Lecture 4: Fundamentals of Manufacturing Systems
- Lecture 4 is about the Fundamentals of Manufacturing Systems.
Manufacturing Systems Aspects
- Manufacturing systems are defined by several key aspects:
- Physical Systems: This includes facilities (buildings, warehouses), equipment (machinery, tools), and material handling systems (conveyor belts, robots, forklifts).
- Operations: Production planning and scheduling, process design, inventory management, quality control and maintenance.
- Information Systems: Manufacturing execution systems (MES), enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, and computer-aided design (CAD)/computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technologies are crucial for tracking data, integration and instruction for manufacturing.
- People: Workers, managers, and engineers are vital components in the manufacturing process.
Manufacturing Systems Structure
- Diagram shows a hierarchical structure of manufacturing systems.
- Enterprise
- Factory
- Shop
- Cell
- Station
- Equipment
Manufacturing Systems Transformation
- Different approaches to manufacturing systems transformation are shown
- Toyota Production Systems (TPS)
- Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS)
- Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMS)
- Cloud-based Manufacturing Systems (CBMS)
- Key improvements and trends over time are noted
Integrated Manufacturing Systems
-
Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is a manufacturing approach integrating automation and computer-controlled machinery to produce a seamless production environment.
-
Four major functions in integrated manufacturing:
- Production: Converting raw materials into products
- Design: Producing product designs
- Management: Planning and controlling design and production activities
- Strategic planning: Decision-making pertaining to strategic issues within integrated manufacturing
-
Diagram illustrates a system structure of an integrated manufacturing system.
- Interconnected design, operation, control and action modules
- Modules such as supply chain management, specification management, WIP (work in process), machine tracking and cell control.
- Modules such as Engineering data analysis, quality management and decision support systems
- Customer, subcontractor, and consultants are included in the diagram
- Other modules include ERP, tactical scheduling, SPC (statistical process control), and fault detection
Integrated Manufacturing Systems Calculations
-
Example problem of calculating the utilization rate of an integrated manufacturing system
- Production rate of 5 springs per minute is given, operating time is for 8 hours (480 minutes),
- Planned downtime of 30 minutes, and unexpected downtime of 15 minutes
- Utilization rate is calculated. Results show 96.67%
-
Another example problem of calculating daily production time for assembling a product made up of three components A,B and C
-
Production time for each component is shown (A-3 minutes, B - 2 minutes, C -1 minute) -Two production method (sequential and parallel) and the daily production time of each method determined.
