Advanced automated manufacturing technology systems are perceived by many manufacturers to be the latest alternative to meet today's global market needs. Higher productivity, better quality, and flexibility are just a few examples of the numerous benefits which can be achieved by implementing modern computer controlled manufacturing systems. Many firms perceive Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) as one of the most promising paths to achieve manufacturing excellence. A CIM project can not be successfully implemented unless it is supported by long-term strategic planning and economic analysis of the required capital investment decisions. This book treats planning as the first step in the justification process. Papers explore both strategic planning for computer integrated manufacturing (CIM), and more detailed issues such as part-tool grouping and machine loading. The critical issue of planning for communications between various levels of computation and devices on the floor is reviewed. Capacity planning, and planning for assembly and quality control are also covered. The important role of champions in justification is explored.
