Application of linear programming model in the evaluation of flexible manufacturing system

Manufacturing is the production of human conquest of nature and transformation of the world after hunting and agricultural production. The difference between the animal husbandry and agricultural activities, which is the object of nature, is that manufacturing is produced for market demand. In the beginning of 20th century, a lot of production methods created by Ford revolutionized the manufacturing industry, satisfied human needs, raised people's living standards, promoted the division and specialization of social production, and established a complete theory of manufacturing production. But with the development of 9374.html "> World economy, material wealth and people's cultural level and living standard, the product market environment has undergone great changes, one is that consumer demand is becoming more and more subjective, diversified and personalized; the second is the competition between manufacturers is more intense. In this context, the United States, Japan and Germany's machinery manufacturing industry in order to improve the competitiveness of products in the international market, accelerate the reform of manufacturing technology, vigorously promote advanced manufacturing technology.   in 20th century, productivity and unit cost minimization are considered to be the core drivers of competitive advantage, and when the auto industry enters its second century, the winners will not be the companies that are constantly expanding their production scale or simply operating efficiently, or the companies that squeeze the last drop of profits from their suppliers. Winners are only those companies that tailor their production to the customer's characteristics.     Strict production balance and long-term balanced production can increase productivity, but if the benefits are to be paid for by the overall system's efficiency and responsiveness, this is of little value to the customer. The automotive industry, like many other industries, must reconsider the extent to which efficiency can be pursued without limiting the flexibility of the overall system.   In short, each of us may feel very different, have their own priorities and other solutions, however, we speak so many points, mainly to solve these difficulties. And flexibility is relative to the "rigidity", the traditional "rigid" automated production line mainly achieve a single variety of mass production. Its advantage is high productivity, because the equipment is fixed, so the equipment utilization rate is also very high, the cost of a single piece of product is low. But the price is quite expensive, and can only process one or several similar parts, difficult to cope with the production of many varieties of small and medium quantities. The viability and competitiveness of a manufacturing automation system depends to a large extent on its ability to produce a lower cost, higher quality variety of products in a short development cycle, as production times are gradually being replaced by the changing market dynamics. Flexibility already occupies a very important position.   Advanced manufacturing is a kind of generalization, which refers to a kind of manufacturing production method which is superior to the existing manufacturing mode and has a promising future, which is represented by mass production. Among them, more successful group technology, Just-in-time system and flexible manufacturing system. Especially in the 1970s, countries began to pay attention to the development and application of flexible manufacturing system, and achieved remarkable scale economic benefits.   YongkaidaAPS, solve the problem of scheduling problems that cannot be satisfied by ERP Http://www.yukontek.com,APS Production planning management expert 400-076-7600,021-68886010
