PREFACE

I have been involved in teaching laboratory based integrated manufacturing courses since 1993. Over that time I have used many textbooks, but I have always been unsatisfied with their technical depth. To offset this I had to supply supplemental materials. These supplemental materials have evolved into this book.

This book is designed to focus on topics relevant to the modern manufacturer, while avoiding topics that are more research oriented. This allows the chapters to focus on the applicable theory for the integrated systems, and then discuss implementation.

Many of the chapters of this book use the Linux operating system. Some might argue that Microsoft products are more pervasive, and so should be emphasized, but I disagree with this. It is much easier to implement a complex system in Linux, and once implemented the system is more reliable, secure and easier to maintain. In addition the Microsoft operating system is designed with a model that focuses on entertainment and office use and is incompatible with the needs of manufacturing professionals. Most notably there is a constant pressure to upgrade every 2-3 years adding a burden.

The reader is expected to have some knowledge of C, or C++ programming, although a review chapter is provided. When possible a programming example is supplied to allow the reader to develop their own programs for integration and automation.

1. INTEGRATED AND AUTOMATED MANUFACTURING

Integrated manufacturing uses computers to connect physically separated processes. When integrated, the processes can share information and initiate actions. This allows decisions to be made faster and with fewer errors. Automation allows manufacturing processes to be run automatically, without requiring intervention.

This chapter will discuss how these systems fit into manufacturing, and what role they play.

1.1 INTRODUCTION

An integrated system requires that there be two or more computers connected to pass information. A simple example is a robot controller and a programmable logic controller working together in a single machine. A complex example is an entire manufacturing plant with hundreds of workstations connected to a central database. The database is used to distribute work instructions, job routing data and to store quality control test results. In all cases the major issue is connecting devices for the purposes of transmitting data.

Automated equipment and systems don’t require human effort or direction. Although this does not require a computer based solution

Automated systems benefit from some level of integration

1.1.1 Why Integrate?

There is a tendency to look at computer based solutions as inherently superior. This is an assumption that an engineer cannot afford to entertain. Some of the factors that justify an inte-

grated system are listed below.

a large organization where interdepartmental communication is a problem

the need to monitor processes

Things to Avoid when making a decision for integration and automation,

-ignore impact on upstream and downstream operations

-allow the system to become the driving force in strategy

-believe the vendor will solve the problem

-base decisions solely on financials

-ignore employee input to the process

-try to implement all at once (if possible)

Justification of integration and automation,

-consider “BIG” picture

-determine key problems that must be solved

-highlight areas that will be impacted in enterprise

-determine kind of flexibility needed

-determine what kind of integration to use

-look at FMS impacts

-consider implementation cost based on above

Factors to consider in integration decision,

-volume of product

-previous experience of company with FMS

-product mix

-scheduling / production mixes

-extent of information system usage in organization (eg. MRP)

-use of CAD/CAM at the front end.

-availability of process planning and process data

* Process planning is only part of CIM, and cannot stand alone.

1.1.2 Why Automate?

Why ? - In many cases there are valid reasons for assisting humans

-tedious work -- consistency required

-dangerous

-tasks are beyond normal human abilities (e.g., weight, time, size, etc)

-economics

Advantages of Automated Manufacturing,

-improved work flow

-reduced handling

-simplification of production

-reduced lead time

-increased moral in workers (after a wise implementation)

-more responsive to quality, and other problems

-etc.

Various measures of flexibility,

-Able to deal with slightly, or greatly mixed parts.

-Variations allowed in parts mix

-Routing flexibility to alternate machines

-Volume flexibility

-Design change flexibility
