|Automatic balancing based on a process graph and other restrictions...
Based on a process precedence graph and production rate the balancing algorithm calculates a first optimised approach. The following restrictions are input into the calculation algorithm:
Number of cars produced on the assembly line in the available production time per day.
The assembly precedence is a graphical description (Pert Chart) of the assembly processes which describes a summary/all possible assembly sequences. The precedence graph shows which parts have to be assembled before the next assembly step can be worked out.
- Assembly process precedence
The assembly line is built up by a sequence of stations. Each station has the same length which describes the space along the station. The processes allocated in the station require parts which have to be delivered at the stations by the logistic processes. The algorithm takes into account the limited amount of space along the station.
- Space required for material supply
The limited work space area in a station requires a detailed planning of the processes assigned to the station. To limit the overlapping of the working areas the processes are carrying a body assignment which allows the mapping of processes to working areas. This method allows that one worker is working only on the front part and an other worker at the rear part of a car in an assembly station.
- Body assignment of process
The algorithm takes into account, that some stations may be locked by technical equipment installed.
- Locking of technical stations
The balancing requires the input of maximal worker density for the stations in the assembly line.
In an automotive assembly line assembly tasks have to be carried out on different levels of heights. The balancing takes into account, that the physical conditions of a given assembly line only allows processes with a given height assignment.
The balancing also takes into account the space required for material support in each station. The PPR data model is visible in the linked products and containers at each process. The planner can call the assigned parts with its containers by mouse click. For material planning the containers are carrying information of number of parts, size of containers and frequency of material supply. The generated data of Automatic Line Balancing can be used for logistics planning in automotive Final Assembly.
Manual re-balancing with warnings based on the restrictions...
By drag and drop the planner is able to change the given balancing result. During the work the system always checks the restrictions and gives its warnings to the planner.
2D view of stations, workplaces, processes and containers...
The user interface shows a 2D display of the assembly line with its stations and the material supply zones along the line.
Several other views...
Beside the 2D balancing view the DELMIA Automatic Line Balancing provides an excel view of the balancing result. Furthermore there a Pert Chart view is available.
Automatic Balancing Based on Man Machine and interaction...
Automatic Balancing for FAL is based on the fact that worker works in one workplace. With this functionality planners particularly PMS planners can assign one or several workers to several machines or stations. They can assign several workers to one operation.
Material Planning Optimizations...
ALB supports the placement of part bins in one or several rows. It also provides the concept of out side corners to prevent the destruction of the planning already done when the user wants to move one part bin group. There is also a functionality to rearrange material planning for single material area and for the left and right sides of the whole line. Snap function is available for easy & quick placement of part bins. Two new merging modes "Do not duplicate Part bins inside material area" and "Do not duplicate part bins inside station" are implemented to remove duplicate part bins for optimal utilization of material areas. There is also a functionality to rotate the part bins of a material area or station or of the whole line by 90 degrees.
Tools information on the process will be used by ALB to calculate the right number of tools at the right place. That means if Tool1 is required by Process1 in Station1/Workplace1 and another Tool1 is required by Process 2 in the same workplace, then ALB assigns only one tool in workplace. If the Process 2 is moved to another workplace, then a new instance of Tool1 will be created in target workplace if not already existing.
Standard Template Processes...
The planner can create non value added process like Walking, Cleaning inside ALB. He will create templates for these processes and creates the instances of these standard processes inside ALB.
Automatic kusawazisha kulingana na mchakato grafu na vikwazo vingine... Kulingana na mchakato kipaumbele grafu na kiwango cha uzalishaji algorithm kusawazisha mahesabu ya kwanza optimized mbinu. Vizuizi vifuatavyo ni kuingia katika algorithm hesabu: Idadi ya magari zinazozalishwa juu ya mstari wa mkusanyiko katika muda wa uzalishaji inapatikana kwa siku. Mkusanyiko kipaumbele ni maelezo ya picha (Pert Chart) ya mchakato wa mkutano ambayo inaelezea muhtasari wa mfululizo wote wa mkutano. Grafu ya kipaumbele inaonyesha ambayo sehemu lazima wamekusanyika kabla ya hatua ya mkutano ijayo inaweza kazi nje. - Mchakato wa kusanyiko kipaumbele mstari wa kusanyiko ni kujengwa juu na mfululizo wa vituo. Kila kituo ina urefu sawa ambayo inaelezea nafasi kando ya kituo. Mchakato uliotengwa katika kituo hicho unahitaji sehemu ambazo zinapaswa kutolewa katika vituo na michakato ya vifaa. Algorithm inachukua katika akaunti kiasi kidogo cha nafasi kando ya kituo. - Nafasi inahitajika kwa ajili ya ugavi wa vifaa eneo ndogo ya kazi katika kituo cha inahitaji mipango ya kina ya michakato iliyowekwa kwa kituo cha. Ili kupunguza overlapping ya maeneo ya kazi michakato ni kubeba mwili mgawo ambayo inaruhusu ramani ya michakato ya maeneo ya kazi. Njia hii inaruhusu mfanyakazi mmoja kufanya kazi tu kwenye sehemu ya mbele na mfanyakazi mwingine katika sehemu ya nyuma ya gari katika kituo cha mkusanyiko. - Mwili utoaji wa mchakato Algorithm inachukua katika akaunti, kwamba baadhi ya vituo inaweza kuwa imefungwa na vifaa vya kiufundi imewekwa. - Kufunga vituo vya kiufundi Usawa inahitaji pembejeo ya kiwango cha juu cha wafanyakazi wiani kwa ajili ya vituo katika mstari wa mkutano. Katika mstari wa mkusanyiko wa magari kazi za mkusanyiko lazima zifanywe kwenye viwango tofauti vya urefu. Usawazishaji inachukua katika akaunti, kwamba hali ya kimwili ya mstari wa mkutano uliopewa inaruhusu tu michakato na mgawo wa urefu uliopewa. Usawazishaji pia inachukua katika akaunti nafasi inahitajika kwa ajili ya msaada wa vifaa katika kila kituo. PPR data mfano ni kuonekana katika bidhaa na vyombo kuhusishwa katika kila mchakato. Mpangaji anaweza wito sehemu iliyopewa na vyombo yake kwa bonyeza panya. Kwa ajili ya mipango ya vifaa vyombo ni kubeba habari ya idadi ya sehemu, ukubwa wa vyombo na mzunguko wa ugavi wa vifaa. Takwimu zinazozalishwa za Automatic Line Balancing zinaweza kutumika kwa mipango ya vifaa katika Mkusanyiko wa Mwisho wa magari. Manual re-balancing na maonyo kulingana na vikwazo... Kwa drag na drop mpangaji ni uwezo wa kubadilisha matokeo ya usawa iliyotolewa. Wakati wa kazi mfumo daima kuangalia vikwazo na anatoa maonyo yake kwa mpangaji. 2D-kuangalia vituo, maeneo ya kazi, taratibu na vyombo Kiunganishi cha mtumiaji huonyesha kuonyesha 2D ya mstari wa mkusanyiko na vituo vyake na maeneo ya usambazaji wa vifaa kando ya mstari. Kwa mfano, katika hali ya 2D, mstari wa mizani wa moja kwa moja wa Delmia hutoa muonekano wa Excel wa matokeo ya usawa. Zaidi ya hayo kuna Pert Chart mtazamo inapatikana. Automatic Balancing Based on Man Machine and Interaction (ABMI) ni mfumo wa uwiano wa kazi unaoendeshwa na mtu mmoja. Kwa kazi hii, wapangaji, hasa wapangaji wa PMS, wanaweza kugawa mfanyakazi mmoja au zaidi kwa mashine kadhaa au vituo. Wanaweza kuwapa wafanyakazi kadhaa kazi moja. Utaratibu wa vifaa: ALB inasaidia uwekaji wa sehemu za sehemu katika safu moja au kadhaa. Pia hutoa dhana ya nje pembe upande kuzuia uharibifu wa mipango tayari kufanyika wakati mtumiaji anataka kuhamisha moja sehemu bin kundi. Pia kuna utendaji wa kurekebisha mipango ya vifaa kwa eneo moja la vifaa na kwa upande wa kushoto na kulia wa mstari mzima. Snap kazi inapatikana kwa ajili ya rahisi na haraka uwekaji wa sehemu bins. Njia mbili mpya za kuunganisha "Usiiga vipande vya vipande ndani ya eneo la vifaa" na "Usiiga vipande vya vipande ndani ya kituo" ni kutekelezwa kuondoa vipande vya vipande vya vipande kwa matumizi bora ya maeneo ya vifaa. Pia kuna uwezo wa kugeuza sehemu bins ya eneo la vifaa au kituo au ya mstari mzima kwa digrii 90. Habari za vifaa juu ya mchakato utatumiwa na ALB kuhesabu idadi sahihi ya vifaa katika mahali sahihi. Hii inamaanisha kwamba kama Tool1 inahitajika na Process1 katika Kituo cha Kazi na Tool1 nyingine inahitajika na Process 2 katika mahali pa kazi moja, basi ALB inatoa zana moja tu katika mahali pa kazi. Ikiwa mchakato wa 2 unahamishwa kwenye mahali pengine pa kazi, basi mfano mpya wa chombo 1 utaundwa katika mahali pa kazi ya lengo ikiwa haipo tayari. Mchakato wa kawaida wa template... Mipango inaweza kuunda mchakato usio na thamani iliyoongezwa kama Kutembea, Kusafisha ndani ya ALB. Ni lazima uunda templates kwa ajili ya mchakato huu na kuunda mifano ya mchakato huu ndani ya ALB.
