Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop a model that incorporates the effect of rejection cost on optimal maintenance planning decisions. Such a model will help in further modelling the interrelationships between preventive maintenance and quality control policy. Design/methodology/approach – In this paper a model is developed for obtaining optimal preventive maintenance interval base...

The planning in manufacturing system is becoming complicated day by day due to the expanding networks and shortage of skilled people to manage change. Consequently, faster lead time and rising demands for eco-efficient evaluation of manufacturing products and processes need exploitation of new and intelligent knowledge management concepts for manufacturing planning. This paper highlights motiva...

Abstract Compaired with mart manufacturing and digital manufacturing, virtual is a more advanced mode, which flexible, inexpensive suitable for modern competitive society. No matter what type of Manufacturing Execution System (MES) necessary plays key role. So this paper focuses on the MES in manufacturing. serves as bridge to connect upper planning layer control factory. It has at least 8 func...

this paper presents a new bridge management system (j-bms). it is integrated with a concrete bridge rating expert system that can be used to evaluate the serviceability of existing concrete bridges. the proposed j-bms not only evaluates the performance of bridges, but also offers a rehabilitation strategy based on a combination of maintenance cost minimization and quality maximization. in this ...

The integration of conceptual process planning and early design stages is a vital activity in the modern industrial environment. Since major manufacturing time is committed in product specification and design, it is critical to be able to assess manufacturing as early as possible in the design process. In this research, an algorithm is developed to build an (Integration of Product Design and Pr...

The success of a company increasingly depends on timely information (internal or external) being available to the right person at the right time for crucial managerial decisionmaking. Achieving such a “right time/right place” duet depends directly on database performance. A database system has been a core component that supports modern business system such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) ...

The planning of Manufacturing Systems involves frequently the resolution of a huge amount and variety of combinatorial optimization problems with a important impact on the performance of manufacturing organizations. The proposed approach is in line with reality and away from the approaches that deal with static and classic or basic Job-Shop scheduling problems. In fact, in real world, where pro...
