Analysis of Unreliable Flexible Manufacturing Cells Operated under Fault-tolerant States
نویسنده
چکیده
In this study, a stochastic model is developed to analyze performance measures of a manufacturing cell, which is operated under degraded mode. The model is used to determine reliability and productivity of the cell, as well as the utilization of its components, under equipment failures and fault-tolerant states. The model and the results can be useful for design engineers and operational managers to analyze performance of a system at the design or operational stage.
