Realizing a Factory-in-a-Box Solution in a Local Manufacturing Environment
- 2009
-
Ingår i: 42nd CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems. - Grenoble, France.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Meeting customer demands require manufacturing systems with a high degree of flexibility in the same time as the use of automation is becoming critical for competition. This is challenging, especially for SMEs with their inferior economical and competence conditions. This paper presents a new set up where the Factory-in-a-Box concept has been realized for a small manufacturing company with a profile of craftsmanship and small volumes. The objective of this paper is to discuss the possibility for SMEs to use automation and the Factory-in-a-box-concept to stay competitive and also the Factory-in-a-Box concept as means for realizing a Product-Service System.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Meeting customer demands require manufacturing systems with a high degree of flexibility, low-cost/low-volume manufacturing skills, as well as short delivery times. On top of these challenges, there is a gigantic need within industry for technologies and strategies that will reduce CO(2) emissions globally. In this challenging environment there is a need to identify and develop new and improved manufacturing capabilities within the manufacturing industry. The Factory-in-a-Box concept consists of standardized production modules that are e.g. installed in a container and transported by truck or by train. The concept has been developed, exemplified and realized in five industrial demonstrators developed by researchers together with competitive manufacturing companies in Sweden such as ABB Robotics, Bombardier and Pharmadule. The objective of this paper is to discuss the possibility of realizing a Product Service System (PSS) using the results from the Factory-in-a-Box project.

Innovation and Design Inspired Product Realization
- 2009
-
Ingår i: DS 58-3: Proceedings of ICED 09, the 17th International Conference on Engineering Design. - Stanford. - 9781904670063 - 9781904670070 ; , s. 263-274

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Long term growth and future jobs in society rely on that industry is able to realize new sustainable product ideas and develop these to profitable products in the market. This encompasses both short time-to-market and continuous development and adaption of existing products and processes to improve productivity. Innovative skills are required in both product/service development and in product/service introduction. Thus, there is a need for new innovative methods and models that supports and strengthens industry in generating new ideas and realizing these into successful products and improved processes. This paper discusses and compares engineering design, innovation, and design. The paper argues that there is a need to integrate the disciplines and work practices of innovation and design in the engineering design field and to build multi-disciplinary environments to be successful in research, education and in industry. A conceptual framework for innovation and design inspired product realization is presented in the paper.

From Metrics to Process : Towards a Dynamic and Flexible Performance Measurement System for Manufacturing Systems
- 2009
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of third swedish production symposium.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Performance measurement systems are challenged by today’s rapidly changing and highly competitive markets. Measures and management of these systems often fail to continuously reflect the dynamic business environment. This purpose of this paper is to discuss how to achieve a dynamic and flexible performance measurement system applicable for manufacturing sites. The analysis is based on a literature review on major performance measurement schemes, as well as a problem identified in industry. The paper introduces an industrial case where the current measurement at Operations is briefly evaluated and put in relation to the findings made in the literature study. The industrial challenges and possibilities are set as one basis for a proposed future structure. Important aspects on unctionalities/abilities for future research as well as development at the case company when choosing indicators and their implementation are discussed.

Developing idPeo - A Multidiciplinary Approach to Product Realization
- 2009
-
Ingår i: DS 58-6: Proceedings of ICED 09, the 17th International Conference on Engineering Design. - : The Design Society. - 9781904670100 ; , s. 67-77

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- On the background of a changing industrial landscape and key elements of the realization of complex integrated products, this paper discuss and explore an "innovative" approach towards product concept development methodologies by focusing on creativity, multidisciplinary teams, and decision-making. Throughout 2006-2009 a product realization methodology, the idPeo methodology, has been developed in a university/industry collaboration milieu. Based on a briefly reported literature review, the paper presents the methodology, briefly the three generations of conducted cases and the evolution of the methodology over the years. It is argued that the approach for innovative product realization in concept development, if implemented correctly also into companies' product development process, could contribute to increased flexibility, creativity and tolerance for change. It could also decrease lead time, increase product performance, and decrease uncertainty.

Reducing Environmental Impact from Manufacturing: Three Industrial Cases for the Manufacturing of Green Products
- 2009
-
Ingår i: 42nd CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems. - Grenoble, France.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- There is a gigantic need for technologies and strategies that will reduce CO2 emissions globally. This paper presents three industrial cases in Sweden where manufacturing of ‘green’ products are analysed and solutions are presented where environmental impact from manufacturing is reduced. The cases represent a conceptual product, a manufacturing ready product and an update of an existing product. The cases also build the base for presenting a draft analysis scheme for designing a more environmentally sustainable production system. The cases and the proposed analysis scheme are discussed in the context of designing a socially, economically and environmentally sustainable production system.
