Advanced manufacturing: an ICT and systems perspective
Production performs a necessary function in ecu financial system and society, and is anticipated to proceed as a big generator of wealth within the foreseeable destiny. A aggressive production is vital for the prosperity of Europe, specially within the face of increasing deindustrialisation. This booklet offers a vast imaginative and prescient of the way forward for production, analysed from a system-management standpoint and with a different specialise in ICT-related concerns.
This insightful reference demonstrates a method of size, inspection, gaging, geometric tolerancing, and fixturing of goods in complete compliance with the yank nationwide criteria Institute (ANSI), the yankee Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), and the overseas association for Standardization (ISO) licensed criteria.

Example text
This analytical approach can be used when an investment in automation gives a company a single opportunity of additional investment at the end of the planning, or a set of opportunities that can be considered as independent; in the latter case, Eq. (28) is used separately for each strategic option and the benefits are then added. Sometimes, however, an investment in automation leads to a set of opportunities of additional investments, that are strictly dependent; for instance if we consider two opportunities of introducing a new product, the cost of introducing the second product can be dependent on whether or not we have introduced the first.
E. the range of mix changes that can be faced without changing the structure of the system. Below, we will point out how each of these elementary flexibilities can be expressed by a numeric measure, and how its economic value can be appraised according to Eq. (9). Product flexibility Product flexibility represents the capacity to limit the cost for introducing 21 22 GIOVANNI AZZONE A N D UMBERTO BERTELÉ in a system a new product, requiring only resources already available. e. the cost of tools, fixtures and part programmes required by the new product.
2. The elementary flexibilities. According to this approach, we can determine six elementary flexibilities. e. the cost of changing the operating conditions of the system, while its structure stays unchanged. e. the cost of a modification of the system. e. the range of mix changes that can be faced without changing the structure of the system. Below, we will point out how each of these elementary flexibilities can be expressed by a numeric measure, and how its economic value can be appraised according to Eq.
