The paper describes a novel approach to product relationships management in the context of concurrent engineering and product lifecycle management (PLM). Current industrial practices in product data management and manufacturing process management systems r ...
This article presents a study on the dynamics of lateral motion of a liquid meniscus confined by a pad and a chip moving parallel to the pad. This problem is a typical flip-chip case study, whose use is widespread in industrial assembly. The proposed model ...
Passing from millimeter to micrometer scale, the traditional pick and place method for assembling large amount of compounds be- comes difficult and time consuming. At micrometer scale it is then very important to have other assembling methods. This work pr ...
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 ...
A decision making tool is proposed to evaluate assembly costs of micro-products (< 1 dm(3)) and to compare different assembly strategies for a given product or product family. The tool takes into account equipment costs as well as running costs, for manual ...

In both animal cells and fungi, cytokinesis proceeds via a contractile actomyosin ring (CAR). Many CAR components and regulators are evolutionarily conserved. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the spatial cue for cytokinesis is provided by Mid1p/Anillin, where ...
Sorting and mating is a very common practice in high precision manufacturing, as well in the watch industry, biomedical or automotive industry. This strategy helps to increase the assembly yield, but is costly and time-consuming. The question is, when is i ...

The rigid body motion of thin walled parts and their elastic-plastic deformations induced during high speed milling are the main root causes of part geometrical and dimensional variabilities; these are governed mainly from the choice of process plan parame ...
In several industrial case studies, we put in evidence that microsystem manufacturing costs skyrocket because of low yields. Sometimes product functionalities are badly defined ; sometimes metrology systems, in spite of their high cost, happen not to measu ...
An assembly line is a production line in which units move continuously through a sequence of stations. The assembly line balancing problem is defined as the allocation of tasks to an ordered sequence of stations subject to precedence constraints with the o ...
