Volume, Variety & Automation
IENG 471 Facilities Planning Volume, Variety & Automation Rembold, et. al. Transfer Line 100,000 10,000 1,000 100 1 Production Quantity High Medium Low Increasing Flexibility Batch Flow Line Increasing Productivity Based on quantity to produce and the variety demanded, different strategies for mfg can be employed. Left, top is typical mass production equipment. Lower, right is typical job shop equipment (if automated). Middle ranges are typical of Batch Production.

Group Technology (GT) Philosophy: Use the similarity of current products to simplify the design and manufacturing of new products Some Applications: Identify and reuse similar process plans Identify and reuse similar CNC programs Identify the equipment that may be best used in a particular machine cell Identify and eliminate redundant inventory Requirement: A taxonomy of part characteristics 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning

IENG 471 Facilities Planning
Benefits of GT Facilitates formation of part families and machine cells Quick retrieval of designs, drawings, & process plans Reduces design duplication Provides reliable workpiece statistics Facilitates accurate estimation of machine tool requirements and logical machine loadings Permits rationalization of tooling setups, reduces setup time, and reduces production throughput time Allows rationalization and improvement in tool design Aids production planning and scheduling procedures Improves cost estimation and facilitates cost accounting procedures Provides for better machine tool utilization and better use of tools, fixtures, & people Facilitates NC part programming.

OP-Codes An OP-Code forms an index to an Operation Plan An Operation Plan is a generalized sequence of steps, perhaps common to multiple parts An OP-Code Sequence is a method of condensing the Operation Plan into a compact structure suitable for data processing 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning

Partitioning Ideally, the cells form mutually exclusive blocks (as below). These blocks define the Families: Family A consists of Components A1, A3, A4, A5, A8, and A9; which can be machined in a cell performing Operations G05, L01, L02, and S01 Family B consists of Components A0, A2, A6, and A7; which can be machined in a cell performing Operations D01, G06, M02, and M05 A4 A3 A5 A8 A9 A1 A2 A6 A7 A0 L01 1 G05 L02 S01 M02 G06 D01 M05 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning

Partitioning Often, the cells do NOT form mutually exclusive blocks (as below). In this case, the capability for Operation G06 must be common to both machining cells: Family A consists of Components A1, A3, A4, A5, A8, and A9; which can be machined in a cell performing Operations G05, G06, L01, L02, and S01 Family B consists of Components A0, A2, A6, and A7; which can be machined in a cell performing Operations D01, G06, M02, and M05 A4 A3 A5 A8 A9 A1 A2 A6 A7 A0 L01 1 G05 L02 S01 M02 G06 D01 M05 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning

Strategies for Overlapping PFA Blocks:
Provide for transporting some components between cells requiring the overlapping operation(s) Pick the component(s) with the smallest volume(s) to transport to reduce handling costs Locate the cells with operation overlap as near to each other as possible to reduce handling costs Avoid scheduling concurrent production runs of the components that require overlapping operation(s) Assumes that the equipment providing the overlapping capability can be easily moved between cells This solution may improve capacity if the overlapping operation is a bottleneck Put equipment capable of the overlapping operation(s) into each cell requiring it Assumes the additional equipment capability is cost justifiable This solution will improve capacity if the overlapping operation is a bottleneck 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning

Extended GT (PFA) Requirements: Need for grouping similar items together, and identifying separable items Matrix of related entities: Tooling Equipment Parts Integrated Circuits Modular Components Solution Method: Triangularization Direct Clustering Algorithm King’s Method Kusiak’s Triangularization Method Ullman’s Design Structure Matrix 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning

Relationship (Incidence) Matrix
Rows and Columns: Parts requiring operations on different machines Tools (in a CNC magazine) needed to produce part families Departments requiring technicians (shared head count) Departments requiring adjacent location ICs requiring modularization An entry in the incidence matrix means that there is a strong relationship between the row and column items 4/11/2017 IENG 471 Facilities Planning
