Continuous Education in New Manufacturing Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
It will be described a case study in the context of Continuous Education in New Manufacturing Systems. In the case study the term New Manufacturing Systems will be restricted to Flexible Manufacturing Systems context. The term Continuous Education will be analyzed as one six years experience in teaching and researching activities at post-graduation level at the cefet-pr.cpgei. The education-research program has been developed by adapting the curriculum to the needs of the development of a software tool for the project and analysis of Flexible Manufacturing Systems at workstation level. By project it is intended the specification of the behavioral and structural characteristics of an FMS. The term analysis means a quantitative description of performance parameters: throughput, sub utilization index, induced wait times and mean value of pallet's population in storage buffers.

متن کاملContinuous Improvement and Participative Factory Planning by Computer Systems
Turbulent influencing factors based on market requirements and technological demands lead to a permanent change and improvement in the factory processes, manufacturing systems and layouts. New investigations in manufacturing show that the application of new machining processes and tools require a systematic and stepwise change of the layout and the organisation in order to activate the economic...
متن کاملModeling of Continuous Systems Using Modified Petri Nets
Due to the changes which may occur in their parameters, systems are usually demonstrated by some subsystems for different conditions. This paper employs Modified Petri Nets (MPN) to model theses subsystems and makes it simple to analyze them. In this method, first, the continuous transfer function is converted to a discrete transfer function and then, by MPN, system is modeled and analyzed. All...
متن کاملRetrieval–travel-time model for free-fall-flow-rack automated storage and retrieval system
Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RSs) are material handling systems that are frequently used in manufacturing and distribution centers. The modelling of the retrieval–travel time of an AS/RS (expected product delivery time) is practically important, because it allows us to evaluate and improve the system throughput. The free-fall-flow-rack AS/RS has emerged as a new technology for dr...
