Satisfactory Manner

Abstract In earlier work, the axiomatic design theory has been analyzed for applications on product design and the production processes that pertain to it, where parts manufacture and assembly take place in flexible and automatic manufacturing systems. The conclusion is that the original model cannot handle the manufacturing aspects in a satisfactory manner. This report proposes an expansion of the axiomatic design model, with a life-cycle approach as take-off. The expansion of the model consists of the introduction of a so-called Manufacturing World with different spaces, where various types of processes and support functions can be developed in agreement with the axiomatic principles. The spaces and their relationships have been defined along with explanations of work procedures. An explanatory example is given.

A new coding system is introduced to classify manufacturing systems and capture the characteristics of the various pieces of equipment and the relationships among them within a manufacturing system, which contribute to their structural, time-independent inherent complexity. The manufacturing Systems Complexity Code (SCC) consists of fields representing equipment, such as machines, buffers and transporters, as well as their layout. Each field contains a string of digits, the value of which depends on the degree of structural, control, programming and operation complexity of theses entities. The developed coding system has many applications including manufacturing systems design, comparison and planning, assessment of their complexity and evaluation of redesign alternatives and trade-offs. The new coding system is described along with its applications and demonstration examples.
