  2. 21. A Method for Customer-driven Purchasing : Aligning Supplier interaction and Customer-driven manufacturing

    Author : Jenny Bäckstrand; Joakim Wikner; Eva Johansson; Martin Rudberg; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : Customer‐driven purchasing; Supplier interaction; Customer‐driven manufacturing; Purchasing; Supply chain management;

    Abstract : The role of a purchaser has traditionally focused on acquiring standard items at the lowest possible cost. The ability to reduce unit cost has been the key performance indicator for purchasers. Most traditional purchasing strategies thus focus on optimizing this situation, focusing on the supplier interface only and not on customer value. READ MORE

  4. 22. From resource efficiency to resource conservation : Studies, developments and recommendations for industrial implementation of circular manufacturing systems

    Author : Michael Lieder; Amir Rashid; Tomohiko Sakao; KTH; []
    Keywords : Circular economy; Circular manufacturing systems; Resource conservative manufacturing; ResCoM; Agent-based modelling; Multi-method modelling; Production Engineering; Industriell produktion;

    Abstract : Manufacturing industry is under permanent pressure to maintain its economic growth and profitability as strong societal backbone. At the same time pressures of waste generation and resource consumption are increasing as result of manufacturing operations. READ MORE

  5. 23. A Strategic Perspective on Plants in Manufacturing Networks

    Author : Andreas Feldmann; Jan Olhager; John Johansen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Empirical research; manufacturing networks; performance; plant roles; site competences; strategy; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This dissertation addresses the topic of manufacturing network strategies, with a particular focus on the plant perspective. Research on manufacturing networks aims at contributing decision support on how to set up and how to coordinate factories that act in a global setting. READ MORE

  6. 24. Detection and classification of internal flaws in laser powder bed fusion: application of in-situ monitoring for quality control of Hastelloy X builds

    Author : Claudia de Andrade Schwerz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; melt pool; productivity; flaw detection; nickel-based superalloy; powder bed fusion; lack of fusion; spatter; defects; Additive manufacturing; process monitoring; pores;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing technologies, in particular laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), have received much attention in recent years due to their multiple advantages over traditional manufacturing. Yet, the usage of additively manufactured products is still quite limited, mainly due to two factors: the low repeatability, which is particularly relevant for applications where high performance is required from the materials, and the typically low productivity, particularly relevant for products with a substantial production volume.

  7. 25. In-situ monitoring of laser powder bed fusion applied to defect detection

    Author : Claudia de Andrade Schwerz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; defect detection; productivity; nickel-based superalloy; process monitoring; pores; powder bed fusion; spatter; defect mitigation; mechanical properties; lack of fusion; melt pool; Additive manufacturing;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing technologies, particularly laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), have received much attention recently due to their numerous advantages over conventional manufacturing methods. However, the use of LPBF is still quite restricted, mainly due to two factors: its typically low productivity, which makes the technology less competitive in applications with moderate to high production volumes, and its limited reliability, particularly relevant for applications where high performance is required from the materials.
