Methods for processing and prioritizing customer demands in variant product design.
March 1, 2004... In the current highly competitive marketplace, customer demand is a major factor in the product design process. Many methods, such as quality function deployment and House of Quality (HoQ), provide a powerful process for translating and mapping...
Performance evaluation of a make-to-stock production line with a two-parameter-per-machine policy: the control point policy.
March 1, 2004... 1. Introduction
One of the main issues in the design of a manufacturing system is the control policy which makes real-time decisions related to the movement of parts. The purpose of the policy is to provide good service to customers while...
The analysis of feature-based measurement error in coordinate metrology.
March 1, 2004... 1. Introduction
Dimensional measurements based on coordinate metrology (Coordinate Measurement System (CMS)) are widely used for product verification, process control and dimensional faults root causes diagnostics of various manufacturing...
Data mining techniques applied to predictive modeling of the knurling process.
March 1, 2004... Knurls are designed into a product to provide the correct frictional force for easy assembly and maintenance and sometimes for decorative purposes. The literature to date has merely studied how to realize a good and consistent knurl, but no...
Value of information in remanufacturing complex products.
March 1, 2004... Remanufacturing facilities usually face a trade-off between limited information about remanufacturing yields and potentially long supplier lead times. To improve production performance, these firms may attempt to acquire more timely and...
Back-of-the-envelope miniload throughput bounds and approximations.
March 1, 2004... We derive simple formulas bounding and approximating the throughput of an end-of-aisle miniload system with exponentially distributed pick times and either uniform or turnover-based storage. For typical configurations, the worst-case relative...
