Titel
Intelligent planning and control of manufacturing resources in production systems
Abstract
Modern manufacturing segments are operated through in-house and external resources. Modern applications of information and communication technologies allow to implement online-diagnoses and to even interact with the control system of manufacturing systems so that a part of the resources to operate and optimise the production is provided from outside. The main objective of revenue and profit controlling is to ensure the profitability of all manufacturing operations during production. The paper described a strategic framework based on technology trends and its implications to product life cycle optimization. By logging of data taken from machine control and operation a manufacturing system can be controlled. The permanent and online product and profit tracking provides a controlling instrument to master turbulent market conditions in manufacturing.
