This is the newest level in the hierarchy, added because of the realization that many corporations have complete families of systems above the factory level that draw from factory performance and attempt to capture corporate strategy in a rigorous fashion.This stratum characterizes the corporate functions of corporate financial services, corporate strategic planning, corporate human resources planning, corporate technology...more

In manufacturing there have always been trade-offs between production rates and flexibility. At one end of the spectrum are transfer lines capable of high production rates, but low flexibility. At the other end of the spectrum are independent CNC machines that offer maximum flexibility, but are only capable of low production rates (Fig. 11.2). Note from the figure that flexible manufacturing falls in the middle of the continuum.There has always been a need in manufacturing for a system that could produce higher volume and production runs than could independent machines while still maintaining flexibility.Transfer lines are capable of producing large volumes of parts at high production rates. The line takes a great deal of setup, but can turn out identical parts in large quantities. Its chief shortcoming is that even minor design changes in a part can cause the entire line to be shut down and reconfigured. This is a critical weakness because it means that transfer lines cannot produce different parts, even parts from within the same family, without costly and time-consuming shutdown and reconfiguration.Traditionally, CNC machines have been used to produce small volumes of...more

Stress analysis Structural problems in elasticity can be solved using linear stress FEA. Stress and displacement response are the main results of a linear stress analysis.These stress levels and deformations are critical in determining whether a product will fail in service and to show conformance to design codes.Vibration analysis: Most problems in vibration are based on a linear stress analysis. The analyst will expand on the static analysis by applying time varying loads and the damping properties of the system. The results of a vibration analysis include the natural frequencies and the dynamic response (stresses and displacements) of a system to the time varying loads. The main design objective in vibration analysis is to avoid destructive resonant frequencies in which the response amplifies itself until the part fails. Vibration analysis can also used to determine the fatigue life of a part.Thermal FEA analysis: The thermal response of a part or system can also be determined using FEA. Temperature values, heat flow, and thermal stress can. be critical for parts placed in a thermal environment.Non-linear FEA analysis nonlinear analysis involves systems that have large...more
