Manufacturing is changing. New ideas of control, the maturity of CAM techniques and computer technology have enabled the definition of an advanced machine tool control standard, STEP-NC. STEP-NC is one part of a larger manufacturing picture with links to d ...
Adopting effective maintenance strategies for transportation infrastructures requires good prediction of their long-term behaviour. For planning interventions without affecting the entire network’s capacity, tunnels in particular require a good overview of ...
In 2011, the Association of German Engineers (VDI) started working on a set of guidelines towards increased resource efficiency. These guidelines represent a framework that defines resource efficiency and outlines considerations for the producing industry. ...
This paper focuses on a production planning problem in a highly automated manufacturing system considering multiple process plans with different energy requirements. The system consists of several closely interconnected sub-systems such as the processing s ...
‘Push-button’ or fully automated manufacturing would enable the production of robots with zero intervention from human hands. Realizing this utopia requires a fundamental shift from a sequential (design–materials–manufacturing) to a concurrent design metho ...
The integration of environmental sustainability and eco-efficiency has been recognized as a means to foster economic and environmental performance, increase competitiveness and use it as a lever to spur innovation. Besides integrating green technologies in ...
Due to the steady tendency to propose highly customized products and to respond to volatile (i.e random) demands, Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) are now present in most shopfloors. In this thesis, flexibility in a FMS is understood as the ability of ...
Advanced technologies based on Internet of Things (IOT) are blazing a trail to effective and efficient management of an overall plant. In this context, manufacturing companies require an innovative strategy to survive in a competitive business environment, ...
In the Factories of the Future framework, cutting-edge ICT developments have been accomplished by the industry, triggering new professional needs, which lead to new learning and training needs and new roles, especially regarding high-skilled labor force. U ...
In this paper, the hybrid production planning & control method Double Speed Single Production Line (DSSPL) is presented, modelled and its performances evaluated and compared to classical Production Planning and Control methods (PPC). DSSPL combines JIT/kan ...
