Indirect monitoring of the failures of a flexible manufacturing system under cyclic scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
We are interested in flexible manufacturing systems and more particularly in their well functioning. In such a context, we opted for a deterministic and cyclic command, which optimizes several criteria such as Work in Process and workflow. In order to supervise the system functioning, we propose to survey the system output and compare it to the deterministic schedule. We will give a diagnostic principle to identify the root cause of the detected symptoms. r 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

General preventive maintenance model for the components of a system, which improves the reliability to ‘as good as new,’ was used to optimize the maintenance cost. The cost function of a maintenance policy was minimized under given availability constraint. On the other hand, in order to ensure appropriate reliability and availability, the development of the optimal maintenanc...

Nowadays, flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is introduced as a response to the competitive environment. Scheduling of FMS is more complex and more difficult than the other scheduling production systems. One of the main factors in scheduling of FMS is variable time of taking orders from customers, which leads to a sudden change in the manufacturing process. Also, some problems are created in p...

The present investigation presents a stochastic model for a flexible manufacturing system consisting of flexible machine, loading/unloading robot and an automated pallethandling device. We consider unreliable flexible manufacturing cell (FMC) wherein machine and robot operate under individual as well as common cause random failures. The pallethandling system is completely reliable. The pallet o...
