  2. 1. Levels of Automation in Production Systems

    Author : Jörgen Frohm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; automation; task allocation; measurement; levels of automation; production;

    Abstract : Although automation is often seen as an efficient way to achieve cost-efficient production and to relieve humans from heavy or dangerous tasks, it also has its drawbacks. Earlier research has shown that increasing levels of automation in unforeseen production situations can be related to production disturbances. READ MORE

  4. 2. Global production management in newspaper production and distribution : coordination of products, processes and resources

    Author : Johan Stenberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : newspaper; production; distribution; management; printing; mailroom; inserting; runnability; tracking; product model.;

    Abstract : This thesis covers an introduction to the present conditions for newspaper publishing, definitions and analyses of the processes of newspaper production and distribution, expected future developments with respect to products and production processes, and finally, conclusions regarding the need for global coordination of products, production and distribution.Primarily, the conditions in the Nordic countries have been analysed.

  5. 3. On the Transformation of Maintenance Organisations in Digitalised Manufacturing

    Author : Jon Bokrantz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; scenario planning; digitalisation; production disturbances; manufacturing; OEE; maintenance; production;

    Abstract : The key to ensuring competitiveness in the future of manufacturing is digitalisation. This has been unanimously recognised by all the world’s largest economies, which is spurring global efforts that will lead to the realisation of digitalised manufacturing: the next manufacturing era that will see a seamless convergence of the virtual and physical world.

  6. 4. An Analysis of the Proactive Approach as a Potential Tool for Adaptability in Production Systems

    Author : Kerstin Dencker; Mauro Onori; Lena Mårtensson; Monica Bellgran; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Assembly; production system design; proactivity; human-machine collaboration; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

    Abstract : Competitive systems for manufacturing, especially assembly systems, have to cope with frequent changes of external as well as internal demands. A proactive behaviour in an assembly system should make it capable of rapid changes and have an ability to handle frequent changes and disturbances. READ MORE

  7. 5. On Reduction of Production Disturbances in Manufacturing Systems Based on Discrete-Event Simulation

    Author : Arne Ingemansson; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik; Production technology; Produktionsteknik; control engineering; robotics; Automation; manufacturing system; Discrete-event simulation DES ; production disturbance reduction;

    Abstract : Improved efficiency in manufacturing systems to achieve increased output and thus reduced production disturbances is a vital area. DES (Discrete-Event Simulation) can visualize and study the dynamic issues related to total efficiency in manufacturing systems. A methodology for production disturbance reduction is presented.
