| Popis: | In the last 20 years, several methodologies, models and tools have been developed for the analysis and optimisation of manufacturing systems in order to propose general improvements. Many of these techniques make extensive use of data modelling, simulation, decision-making support, expert systems and reference models. This paper presents the first outcome of a piece of research work to integrate manufacturing process analysis into an integrated modelling framework covering all aspects related to the shop-floor as it really is. The main methodologies and software tools have been identified and evaluated and the results tested on industrial examples. As a result of this evaluation it has been possible to identify the inefficiencies of the techniques. These problems are connected with integrating the different types of data to be analysed—such as quality, time, costs, resource capacity, productivity, flexibility or improvements—into a single analysis environment. The inefficiencies detected enable us to present a general framework for making better use of modelling techniques for manufacturing process analysis. |
