| Detailed
description of topics: Organization of the manufacturing processes, automation possibilities and integration of activities with the aim of maximizing the effectivenes of these processes. The change and effect of customer orders on product variety and product life cycle imposes new demands on the manufacturing processes, e.g. quality improvement, shorter design leadtimes, shorter manufacturing leadtimes and reduction of costs. This can be done with the aid of new technology, computer integrated manufacturing which combines the three primary processes (design and process planning, production control and scheduling and the manufacturing process) and integrates them on two area's, the material flow and the information flow. The requirements of each primary process will be treated, the way to integration (by structuring, automatision and integration) and how to implement CIM with the aid of system- and referencemodels. |
