Discrete part design by taking manufacturing restrictions into account

Impact of the Corrective Maintenance Cost on Manufacturing Remanufacturing System Performance

This paper studies a manufacturing remanufacturing system composed by two parallel machines, a serviceable inventory, a remanufacturing inventory and a customer which demands a constant quantity of part. Taking into account the return of the used part and the maintenance action, discrete flow model is used to model and to simulate the system. The goal of this work is to evaluate the optimal ser...

Development Synthesis, Evaluation, and Selection of Parts Design Scheme in Supplier Involved Product Concurrent Engineering: Research and Applications Synthesis, Evaluation, and Selection of Parts Design Scheme in Supplier Involved Product Development

Taking into account the supplier involvement in the new product development (NPD), this article focuses on the synthesis evaluation, and selection of the part design scheme in part deployment process. The concepts of performance indicator (PI) and integrated performance indicators (IPI) are introduced to measure the performance of the part design scheme and product design scheme respectively. A...

Interaction of Discrete and Continuous parts of aBatch Process

Through a study taking past Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) experiences, and the ISA 5] and NAMUR 7] references into account, we tried to see how far techniques developed in the eld of Discrete Manufacturing Systems (DMS) could be extended to Batch Chemical Processes 1]. As a result, a distributed hierarchical control system has been built. The proposed supervisory control system is com...

Determination of optimum of production rate of network failure prone manufacturing systems with perishable items using discrete event simulation and Taguchi design of experiment

This paper, considers Network Failure Manufacturing System (NFPMS) and production control policy of unreliable multi-machines, multi-products with perishable items. The production control policy is based on the Hedging Point Policy (HPP). The important point in the simulation of this system is assumed that the customers who receive perishable item are placed in priority queue of the customers w...
