Incorporating Variability in Lean Manufacturing: A Fuzzy Value Stream Mapping Approach

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
In this paper, value stream mapping (VSM) is integrated with fuzzy set theory to incorporate variability and uncertainty in the lean production system. VSM is one of the primary analytical tools for identifying waste and optimizing a production line. However, the standard VSM fails to consider the variability in manufacturing environments, which is, in

Colored Petri Net‐Based Verification and Improvement of Time‐Sensitive Single‐Unit Manufacturing for the Soil Preparation Instrument of Space Missions

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Various space missions, including the Russian and Chinese interplanetary exploration collaboration in 2011 and the Phobos‐Grunt space project to be relaunched by the Chinese in 2025, carry a soil preparation system (SOPSYS), which is an instrument used for scientific experiments. The design and manufacture of this precision instrument require stringent

Work in process level definition: a method based on computer simulation and electre tri [PDF]

open access: yesProduction, 2013
This paper proposes a method for defining the levels of work in progress (WIP) in productive environments managed by constant work in process (CONWIP) policies. The proposed method combines the approaches of Computer Simulation and Electre TRI to support

New approximate solution of CONWIP and a method for determining appropriate level of WIP

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
CONWIP (Constant Work in Process), which is a simple pull production control method keeping WIP (Work in Process) of a whole production line constant, has been considered a better alternative to Kanban in some ways.

CONWIP versus POLCA: A comparative analysis in a high-mix, low-volume (HMLV) manufacturing environment

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Engineering and Management, 2016
Purpose: Few studies comparing manufacturing control systems as they relate to high-mix, low-volume applications have been reported. This paper compares two strategies, constant work in process (CONWIP) and Paired-cell Overlapping Loops of Cards with ...
