  • It has generic and flexible equipment.
  • An example where this is used is construction and power- and shipbuilding.

Q

What is the customer order decoupling point (CODP)?

A

The customer order decoupling point is the point which splits the flow into two parts:

Q

Describe the P/D ratio

A

The P/D ratio is the ratio between Production Lead Time and Delivery Lead time.

The production lead time covers from the production is initiated to that the customer order is delivered.

The Delivery lead time is from the that the customer order is received to the customer order is delivered. The start of this is the decoupling point.

What is disturbance in a production flow?

A

Any breakdown or problem in one or more stations resulting i a stop or higher cycle time.

101
Q

What is a buffer?

A

A temporary storage products in a production flow

102
Q

What are the two scenarios in line balancing?

A
  1. Fixed stations
    Know number of stations, therefore minimize the takt time as mush as possible
  2. Fixed takt time
    In order to reach the takt time, minimize the amount of work stations and resources used
103
Q

What is balance loss?

A

Balancing loss is the proportion of time allocated for processing but not used

It’s the difference between takt time and that cycle time.

B=((Number of stationsHighest Cycle Time)-Total Time)/(Number of stationsHighest Cycle Time)

104
Q

Explain what a Precedence Relations is

A

The work tasks to the performed are related to the other tasks. Therefore, some tasks have to be performed before the other are made.

105
Q

Explain the Theory of Constraints

A

In order to reduce the system losses:

  1. Identify the systems constraints
  2. Decide how to exploit the systems constraints
  3. Subordinate the other resources to the constraints
  4. Elevate the systems constraints
  5. If in any of the previous steps a constrain is broken, go back to step 1
106
Q

What are the steps of developing a production system?

A

If there is an existing product the steps are:

Designing/analyzing products

  • CAD
  • Bill of Materials, BoM
  • Engineering Bill of Materials, EBoM

From EBoM to Process Design which requires information about

  • Material
  • Resources, such as equipment, machines and workers
  • Activities

Create MBOM for the resources.

From the MBOM the next step is the technological aspects

Q

What are the five working principles of Theory of Constrains?

A
  1. Identify constraint
  2. Exploit constraint
  3. Subordinate all resources to global decision
  4. Elevate constraint
  5. Overcome inertia

  • Hazop
  • FMEA
116
Q

Describe maintenance planning

A

The objective of the maintenance planning function is to effectively utilize the maintenance staff and minimise the impact of …

117
Q

What is the purpose of maintenance management?

A

Effects on productivity

Maintenance task prioritization and workforce allocation.

  • Good equipment maintenance will improve the productivity of that equipment
  • Maintenance should be the focus on critical equipment
  • Prioritization of maintenance will not only improve the productivity of that equipment but also the entire system
  • Maintenace workforce need to continuously updated on the critical equipment to effectively plan and schedule maintenance
118
Q

How is the division of types of maintenance in industry today?

A

70 % Reactive maintenance
30 % Preventive maintenace

Starting with maybe some with predictive maintenance

119
Q

Why is maintenance important?

A

Utilization efficiency during stable production. A big part of what causing down time losses is maintenance related.

The cost of maintenance has increased and a large part of the total production cost goes to maintenance activities.

Poor maintenance can cause social, economical and ecological sustainability losses.

  • production inefficiency
  • Equipment failures can cause blockage and idle times
  • It is often safety critical
  • Consumes more energy to repair than produce
120
Q

Give a brief introduction to the history of maintenance

A

Has underw

121
Q

Give a brief introduction to the history of maintenance

A

Has underwent much transformation and went form “nothing” to major industrial strategy.

122
Q

Explain the first generation of maintenance

A

This was pre 1950s. It was mostly manual work with simple machines and low downtime. As such only form of maintenance was repairs and it was the start of reactive maintenance.

It was seen as necessary evil and “firefighters” increased in industry.

123
Q

Explain the second generation of maintenance

A

It took place during the 1950s.

Industries become more dependent on equipment that also became more complex. There was a need to stop the equipment from failure so a more scientific approach to maintenance took place and it was the start of preventive maintenance.

Maintenance department was first introduced in industries.

Finns förklaring fram till 1970 but fuck this shit.

124
Q

What was the problems faced during the second generation of maintenance 1950?

A

Problems faces was:

  • Caused inefficiency
  • Scheduled PM caused downtime
  • Non-value adding PM activity was hard to find
  • Questions raised on equipment reliability and maintenance cost
125
Q

What is reliability-centered maintenance?

A

RCM is a process used to determine what must be done to ensure that any physical asset continues to what its it to do its present operation context.

The tools are:
FMEA, Failure mode and effect analysis

126
Q

What are three components of TPM?

A

The three components of total productive maintenance are:

  1. Maintenance prevention
    - Prevent by simple machine design and eliminate parts which requires high maintenance.
  2. Preventive maintenance
  3. Autonomous maintenance
    - Major contribution of TPM
    - Production and maintenance department work together
    - Major maintenance work done by maintenance
    - Production operator maintenance
127
Q

Explain the third generation of maintenance

A

It’s from 1980 to 2000.

  • TPM and RCM continued to grown (and is at work today)
  • Started with computerized maintenance management system.
  • Database tracked and recorded every maintenance work orders and downtime.

View of maintenance changed from technical matter to profit contributor.

128
Q

Explain maintenance since 2000

A

The product and the equipment has become more complex along with an increased demand, quality and speed of products. Industries are still working with the same concepts.

The scope of maintenance is expanding and new technology such as industry 4.0, RFIDs and IoT means the field of maintenance management is currently even more challenging and going changes more than ever in its brief history.

Q

What is maintenance planning?

A

The objective of the maintenance planning function is to effectively utilise the maintenance staff and minimise maintenance downtime on the production capacity of the plant.

132
Q

What is maintenance scheduling?

Scheduling a maintenance work order requires maintenance planning, allocation of time, and availability of equipment.

133
Q

Effective maintenance planning and scheduling will?

A
  • Increase availability
  • reduce product quality problems
  • Increase production capacity
134
Q
