Sehr kurze Produktlebenszyklen und ein starker Preisverfall fordern von Unternehmen der High Tech Branche hohe Innovationsgeschwindigkeit und kurze Markteinführungszeiten. Kurze Durchlaufzeiten ermöglichen durch kurze Lernzyklen einen erfolgreichen Serienanlauf. Flussorientierte Fertigungsorganisationen führen zu kurzen Durchlaufzeiten und werden seit vielen Jahrzehnten mit großem Erfolg z.B. in der...
This article focuses on Infineon's consequent way to retain their European facilities by designing and building a high profitable eight inch manufacturing environment. The challenges for automation in such an environment are discussed and practical experiences are presented. Based on more than 7 years of automation experiences, we developed summarized rules of automation. We will show the advantages...
Bringing manufacturing excellence and innovation into balance, like yin and yang, in mature multi-product semiconductor fabrication facilities is the scope of the paper. This is done with the new approach called “Design for Flow by 3” which includes Product Process of Record (POR), Production Control, and organizational Design for Flow. It is derived out of the challenge to face the increasing pressure...
“Learning to see” is the message of the powerful Value Stream Mapping (VSM) technique, which was developed within the lean production paradigm to help practitioners redesign production systems, eliminate waste and create continuous flow manufacturing in a high-mix, low-volume manufacturing environment. It was originally developed mainly for disconnected flow lines of the automotive industry. In this...
