Reducing Manufacturing Cycle Time during Product Design
This paper describes an approach that can reduce manufacturing cycle time during product design. Design for production (DFP) determines how manufacturing a new product design affects the performance of the manufacturing system. This includes design guidelines, capacity analysis, and estimating manufacturing cycle times. Performing these tasks early in the product development process can reduce ...
متن کاملReducing Manufacturing Flow Times: Job Shop Simulation and Reconfiguration
Smaller production companies, such as job shops, are often incapable of committing significant human or capital resources for the improvement of manufacturing flow times. However, there is considerable demand in these organizations for solutions that offer improvements without the risk involved in expending these resources. This paper investigates the impact of scheduling rules and reorganizati...
متن کاملMortality among aircraft manufacturing workers.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the risk of cancer and other diseases among workers engaged in aircraft manufacturing and potentially exposed to compounds containing chromate, trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), and mixed solvents. METHODS A retrospective cohort mortality study was conducted of workers employed for at least 1 year at a large aircraft manufacturing facility in California ...
متن کاملDesign for Production: a Tool for Reducing Manufacturing Cycle Time
This paper describes a decision support tool that can help a product development team reduce manufacturing cycle time during product design. This design for production (DFP) tool determines how manufacturing a new product design affects the performance of the manufacturing system by analyzing the capacity requirements and estimating the manufacturing cycle times. Performing these tasks early in...
متن کاملConstraint-Oriented Cooperative Scheduling for Aircraft Manufacturing
THE FLANGED-ELEMENT MANUfacturing workshop at Dassault Aviation’s plant in Argenteuil, France, uses a number of short-run manufacturing cycles to produce small quantities of numerous aircraft structural parts. The many manual finishing operations, components, and manufacturing processes involved place a premium on management flexibility and quick reactions for meeting ever-changing production d...
