Abstract<br />

We present models <strong>by</strong> which flexibility for a manufacturing system can be<br />

asessed. These models enable a manager to compare different systems with respect<br />

to certain flexibility types. These models reflect the view that the flexibility<br />

of a system is a function of the technology as well as how well the system is managed.<br />

Two of the most fundamental types of flexibility, routing <strong>and</strong> machine flexibility,<br />

are examined. The efficacy of the met.hods are shown through numerical examples.


1 Introduction<br />

Flexibility, along with cost, quality <strong>and</strong> service is an important aspect of manufacturing<br />

strategy (Wheelwright, 1986). Throughout most of the industrial era a<br />

great deal of attention was focused on the cost component in production. In the<br />

1970's <strong>and</strong> 1980's, as a result of increased Japanese competitiveness, quality was<br />

the factor which came into the limelight. Now, with product life cycles becoming<br />

more compressed, firms are looking for a way of extending the design life of their<br />

plant in order to get more from their capital investment. As a result of this change<br />

in the market, together with the advent of new manufacturing technologies referred<br />

to as "flexible manufacturing systems", flexibility is receiving more notice. The aim<br />

of this investigation is to provide methods for the evaluation of certain key types of<br />

production flexibility. Since flexibility is a function of the system layout <strong>and</strong> operation<br />

this will enable managers to compare different manufacturing system designs.<br />

Several researchers have developed alternative taxonomies for manufacturing<br />

flexibility (M<strong>and</strong>elbaum, 1978; Buzacott, 1982; Zelenovic, 1982; Browne, et. al.,<br />

1984; Jaikumar, 1984; <strong>and</strong> Swarnidass, 1988). We make use of the terminology<br />

proposed <strong>by</strong> Browne et. al. <strong>and</strong> develop measures for certain types of flexibility<br />

described therein. In only three studies have measures of flexibility been developed<br />

(Chatterjee, et. al., 1984, Graves, 1988, <strong>and</strong> Kumar, 1987). For a survey of flexibility<br />

in manufacturing see Gupta <strong>and</strong> Goyal (1989) <strong>and</strong> Sethi <strong>and</strong> Sethi (19<strong>90</strong>).<br />

Browne et. al.'s taxonomy breaks flexibility down into eight classes: routing.<br />

machine, process, product, volume, expansion, operation, <strong>and</strong> production flexibility.<br />

Routing flexibility gives the system the capability to continue producing a given set.<br />

of parts despite machine breakdown. Machine flexibility is the ability to easily make<br />

changes to a given set of parts. Browne et. al. state that process <strong>and</strong> product flexibility<br />

are dependent on machine flexibility. They also assert that volume, expansion<br />

<strong>and</strong> operation flexibility are dependent on routing flexibility (production flexibility<br />

being a functioin of all the other seven types). Thus, the natural starting points to<br />

develop evaluation procedures for manufacturing flexibility would be routing <strong>and</strong><br />

machine flexibility.<br />

Chatterjee et. al. offered four different measures for routing flexibility. These<br />

measures were: (i) the cardinality of the set of routings, (ii) the ratio of the number<br />

of module centers capable of carrying out an operation on a certain part to the total<br />

1


number of module centers, (iii) the number of alternative paths within a module<br />

center, <strong>and</strong> (iv) the possible trajectories through the module centers. An important<br />

consideration ignored in these measures is the reliability of machines that make up<br />

the system, i.e. if a particular machine has broken down the routes going through<br />

that machine do not add to the flexibility of the system. Another factor neglected in<br />

their measures was that of machine capacities, as machines with differing capacities<br />

are weighted equally under their framework. The measure that we propose takes<br />

both of these factors into account.<br />

Graves (1988) provides a measure for what he calls rate flexibility (Browne et.<br />

al.'s volume flexibility) as the ratio of the slack in production capacity normaliy<br />

available to the variablility in the dem<strong>and</strong> process. He then develops a relationship<br />

of this flexibility measure with the inventory base stock level. This measure is for<br />

a given product mix. Jaikumar (1984) argues that flexibility should be defined<br />

over a given family of part types since an FMS is designed in that fashion. Once<br />

the family is chosen (which is difficult since it should be viable in the long run)<br />

the flexibility has to be defined within that domain. Our procedure also assumes<br />

a given part mix, although we seek to appraise different types of flexibility than<br />

Graves. Kumar (1987) suggests that entropy (a concept used in thermodynamics<br />

reflecting r<strong>and</strong>omness or uncertainty in the system) may be a suitable measure of<br />

However, we demonstrate situations in §2.1 in which this approach is not<br />

appropriat e.<br />

These measures of manufacturing flexibility (cardinality of the route set, rate<br />

flexibility, <strong>and</strong> entropy) are difficult for managers to interpret. This, in turn, creates<br />

complications for managing a production facility to attain flexibility. An empirical<br />

survey revealed that, "As of mid-1983, no FMS installation in the U.S. was<br />

being managed for flexibility" (Bessant <strong>and</strong> Haywood, 1986). This implies that<br />

those who were managing the aforementioned FMS facilities were not aware of the<br />

benefits of manufacturing flexibility. Our procedure demonstrates how operations<br />

performance can translate into economic measures relevant for managers. In §2<br />

we outline our proposed method for evaluating routing flexibility, in §3 we discuss<br />

machine flexibility, <strong>and</strong> in §4 we present our conclusions.<br />

2 Routing Flexibility<br />

In this section we propose a method for appraising routing flexibility. As defined<br />

<strong>by</strong> Browne et. al., routing flexibility is exhibited when machines breakdown, as<br />

a result we incorporate the reliability of machines in our models. The system<br />

design consists of machine centers <strong>and</strong> the materials h<strong>and</strong>ling system. The design<br />

specification includes the reliability of the different machines, their capacities for<br />

the each part type, <strong>and</strong> the precedence relationships. Reliability is defined as the<br />

probability that the machine is capable of performing an operation at a given time.<br />

Capacity is defined as the total number of units of a part type a machine can process<br />

in a given block of time. The procedure results in the computation of an expected<br />

maximal cashflow for a given production system design <strong>and</strong> product mix which we<br />

propose as an economic measure representing routing flexibility. We first present<br />

the proposed procedure for the computation of the measure <strong>and</strong> then provide an<br />

example <strong>and</strong> explain its relevante.<br />

Consider a manufacturing system consisting of a number of machining centers<br />

<strong>and</strong> a materials transfer system. This network can be represented <strong>by</strong> a r<strong>and</strong>om,<br />

planar graph where the vertices (machining centers) are subject to failure. We<br />

assume that the failures are independent. Models for the expected flow in networks<br />

subject to arc failure are provided in Aneja <strong>and</strong> Nair (1980, 1982) <strong>and</strong> Wallace<br />

(1987).<br />

We define the following parameters <strong>and</strong> variables:<br />

• i is the index of the part type; i = 1, , m.<br />

• k is the index for machine type; k = 1, , n.<br />

• h is the index of an elementary path from the load to the unload station;<br />

h = 1, , H .<br />

• i, k is the time required to process one unit of part i on machine k.<br />

• Tk is the total number of hours available for processing at machine k.<br />

• pi, is the probability that machine k is operating at a given point in time.<br />

• b, kh is a zero-one parameter which if equa1 to one indicates that product i can<br />

be produced on machine k on path h.<br />

3


• adk is the element of the arc-incidence matrix for product i indicating a connection<br />

between machine 1 <strong>and</strong> k. The element is one if a connection exists<br />

<strong>and</strong> zero otherwise.<br />

• ci is the contribution margin of part type i.<br />

• d, is the minimum dem<strong>and</strong> that must be satisfied for each part type i.<br />

• x,h is the flow of part i on path h.<br />

The performance measure to reflect the routing flexibility (RF) of the manufacturing<br />

system should combine both the cardinality of the route set <strong>and</strong> the reliability<br />

of the system. The measure we propose is the maximum expected contribution of<br />

the system. Such a measure translates operational differences of systems into financial<br />

terms which would be of greater use to managers evaluating various designs.<br />

This measure can be computed <strong>by</strong> one of the following mathematical programming<br />

models. The first model is formulated <strong>by</strong> considering flows over a given path as the<br />

decision variable while the second model considers the flow between t.wo machines.<br />

(1.1) is the capacity constraint for each machine given the reliability of that ma-<br />

chine. 1.1 is the expected amount of time to process part i on machine k. Constraint<br />

Pad<br />

(1.2) ensures that certain minimal dem<strong>and</strong> conditions are satisfied. This formulation<br />

involves n + constraints <strong>and</strong> m .(1 + EZ.:i k!Ckn-2 ) variables in the worst case<br />

(i.e. when the machine network is totally connected). Hence this formulation is<br />

preferred when the network is sparse.<br />

4


An alternative formulation is one which centers around the machine. In addition<br />

to the previously defined variables we specify a new variable ya k to be the flow of<br />

part i from machine I to machine k.<br />

Machine Formulation<br />

where n is the index for the unload station. Constraints (2.2) <strong>and</strong> (2.3) are equivaient<br />

to constraints (1.1) <strong>and</strong> (1.2), respectively. Constraint (2.1) is introduced in<br />

this formulation to ensure the balance of flows, i.e. the number of units flowing<br />

into a machine is equal to the number of units flowing out from a machine. This<br />

formulation lias in it s worst case n•rn 2 variables <strong>and</strong> rz•m+n+m constraints. Consequently<br />

this formulation is preferred when the network is dense. Both of the above<br />

formulations are LP models which can be solved using a st<strong>and</strong>ard simplex code as<br />

is done in the example in the following section.<br />

From bot.h of the above models it is clear that with increasing reliability (p's)<br />

<strong>and</strong> capacity (T's) of the components in the system, the expected thruput of the<br />

system is nondecreasing. We now give an example to illustrate the evaluation of<br />

this flexibilit• measure.<br />

2.1 An example<br />

Let us use the procedure of the previous section to evaluate the following two<br />

manufacturing system designs. The first system has two machines <strong>and</strong> load <strong>and</strong><br />

unload stations (Figure 1) while, the second differs in that it has a third machine<br />

5


(Figure 2) <strong>and</strong> the reliability of the machines are different. Let Tk = 300 time units<br />

Vk, d 1 = d2 = 10 units with the part types having the following characteristics:<br />

P rocessing Times (t,k)<br />

Part M1 M2 M3 Contribution (c,)<br />

1 3.3 3.5 4.5 3.5<br />

2 3.5 3.4 4.9 4.0<br />

The systems are illustrated in the following two figures, where the reliability of<br />

the machines (pk V k) are the numbers in parentheses (i.e. the probability that<br />

machine M1 is operating at a given point in time is 0.9 while for machine M2 it is<br />

0.95).<br />

(0.9)<br />

The routes for each part type in this system are:<br />

1. L - M1 - U<br />

2. L - M2 - U<br />

This system yields an optimal expected contribution of 641.2 with 10 units of part<br />

1 processed on machine 1, 67.71 units of part type 2 being processed on machine 1<br />

<strong>and</strong> 83.82 units processed on machine 2. The design of the second system is,<br />

(0.6)<br />

Figure 2 - Semple System Design No. 2<br />

The routes for each part type in this system are:<br />

1. L - M1 - U<br />

2. L - M2 - U<br />

3. L - M3 - U<br />

This system yields a lower optimal expected contribution of 551.9 with 10 units of<br />

part type 1 being processed on M3 <strong>and</strong> the processing of part type 2 being spread<br />

out on all three machines (M1 producing 51.4 units, M2 producing 44.1 units, <strong>and</strong><br />

M3 producing 33.7 units).<br />

7


It is clear from the above example, that the cardinality of the route set is insufficient<br />

for appraising a value of flexibility. In the example, System No. 2 has a<br />

greater number of alternative routes (a higher cardinality of the route set) but is less<br />

preferable. Thus, reliability must be incorporated along with the number of routes<br />

in the evaluation of a manufacturing system. One could examine the possibility of<br />

adding more machines on to the first network <strong>by</strong> using the method described in<br />

Wallace (1987).<br />

It can also be shown from the examples that the entropy measures of Kumar<br />

(1987) are inadequate. His first measure (–Eh phIn(ph) where ph represents the<br />

proportion of the total flow along path h) for the first sample system would give<br />

a value of 0.688, <strong>and</strong> for the second design a value of 1.07. Thus, <strong>by</strong> this measure<br />

the second system would again seem preferable. This is clearly driven <strong>by</strong> Kumar's<br />

assumption that an essential feature of these measures is that they be monotonically<br />

increasing with the number of paths (<strong>and</strong> consequently has the same characteristics<br />

as the approach given <strong>by</strong> Chatterjee et. al.).<br />

Increasing reliability, however, does not always imply an increase in contribution<br />

as the analysis of a more complex machine network illustrates. Let Tic = 300 time<br />

units Vk, d2 = 10 units with the part types having the following characteristics:<br />

P rocessing Times (ik<br />

Part M1 M2 M3 M4 Contribution (c,)<br />

Figure 3 - Sample System Design No. 3<br />

The routes for each part type in this system are:<br />

1. L-M1-M3- U<br />

2. L - M2 - M4 - U<br />

3. L - M2 - M3 - U<br />

The optimal solution in this system yields an RF of 346.16 with 10 units of part 1<br />

produced on route 1 <strong>and</strong> 33.67 <strong>and</strong> 44.11 units of part 2 produced on routes 1 <strong>and</strong><br />

2, respectively. In this system M2 <strong>and</strong> M3 are bottlenecks, so that increasing the<br />

reliability of any one of those machines would yield an increased contribution. If<br />

the reliability of M2 were increased, there would initially be an increase in RF, but<br />

beyond 0.52, M4 becomes a bottleneck <strong>and</strong> any further increase in reliability of M2<br />

brings no added contribution. Thus the RF line for System 3 in Figure 4 becomes<br />

flat.<br />

FIGURE 4 - RF vs. Reliability of M2<br />

As can be seen from Figure 4, for any given reliability of M2 system 2 generates<br />

more contribution than either system 1 or 3. Thus, system design No. 2 stochastically<br />

dominates both system designs 1 <strong>and</strong> 3. With equal machine reliabilities<br />

stochastic domination provides a clear indication of the superior performance of<br />

one design over another. Stochastic domination, however, may not always be attainable.<br />

For example, if we increased the reliabilities of machines in system 3 we<br />

could obtain a situation where initially RF is greater in system 3 than 1, but as the<br />

reliability of M2 increases RF of system 3 goes below that of design 1.<br />

It is also evident that for the same reliability the value of flexibility for different<br />

designs will be affected <strong>by</strong> the capacities of the machines. For example, System<br />

No.1 could stochastically dominate System No. 2 if the Tk's for design No. 1-were<br />

raised sufficiently.<br />

3 Machine Flexibility<br />

Machine flexibility (according to Browne et. al.) is dependent on the Base with<br />

which one can make changes in order to produce a given set of part types. One<br />

possible measure of this form of flexibility could be the time taken to set up the<br />

machine to perform some operation on a different part type. DeGroote (1988) has<br />

shown that with a decrease in set up time the scope of product designs produced<br />

efficiently increases, thus demonstrating (as Browne et. al. anticipated) how product<br />

flexibility is dependent on machine fiexibility. Rafler <strong>and</strong> Tombak (19<strong>90</strong>) have<br />

shown the market conditions under which this type of flexibility is desireable. In<br />

this section we propose a measure <strong>by</strong> which alternative manufacturing systems can<br />

be evaluated with respect to machine flexibility. Since machine flexibility is not<br />

only built into the design of the system but is also a function of how the system is<br />

managed, our measure can also be used for control of operations.<br />

Sethi <strong>and</strong> Sethi (19<strong>90</strong>) point to "numerical control, easily accessible programs,<br />

automatic tool changing ability, sophisticated part loading devices, size of the tool<br />

magazine, st<strong>and</strong>ardized tools, number of axes, etc." as sources of machine flexibility.<br />

Browne et. al. suggest that the appropriate measure for machine flexibility is the<br />

time required to: replace worn-out or broken cutting tools, to change tools in a tool<br />

magazine, t.o assemble or mount the new fixtures required, prepare cutting tools,<br />

position the part, <strong>and</strong> changeover the numerical control program. We have choosen<br />

t.o concentrate on the time required to change tools in a tool magazine, the lime<br />

required to change the tool in the machine when the tool is in the magazine, <strong>and</strong><br />

the time required to assemble or mount the new fixtures required. We do so because<br />

we believe that these factors are the most significant portion of set up time in many<br />

cases.<br />

In order to derive a model to evaluate machine fiexibility let us define the following:<br />

j are indices for part types; i = 1, ... ,m; j = 1, , m.<br />

• q is the maximum number of too:s that can fit in a tool magazine<br />

• is the time to position the tool in the machine from the tool magazine<br />

if the tool for part j is diffèrent from that of part i (this assumes that each<br />

tool can be picked from the tool magazine in the same amount of time), also<br />

v,, = 0 if the tool for part j is the same as that for part i.<br />

11


• u„ is the time to change the fixture if the fixture for part j is different from<br />

that of part i<br />

• s is the time required to change a tool in the tool magazine (this is considered<br />

the sanie for all tools since it involves picking, placing, <strong>and</strong> returning tools to<br />

the same location).<br />

•<br />

•<br />

•<br />

zij<br />

=<br />

1 if part i requires tool r<br />

0 otherwise<br />

1 if part i precedes part j on the machine<br />

- 0 otherwise<br />

f 0 if bi, = 1 <strong>and</strong> b„,. = 1 for any r E Y<br />

Y') 1 1 otherwise<br />

where Y is the set of tools in the tool magazine since the last tool change.<br />

In order to find the minimum set up time for a given manufacturing system <strong>and</strong> a<br />

given part mix one must solve the following mathematical program. We assume that<br />

the tool changing time is the same for all tools but the fixture changing time may be<br />

different for each part. This is based on observations of many FMSs where the tool<br />

size <strong>and</strong> shapes do not vary as considerably as the part geometry. Assuming that<br />

the machines were incapable of changing fixtures <strong>and</strong> tools simultaneously machine<br />

flexibility (MF)can be evaluated using the following nonlinear integer programming<br />

model.<br />

MF = MINE E Vii • zji E E Ujj • Zij .5 • EE ij • (3.0A)<br />

Subject to:<br />

E E m — 1 (3.1)<br />

j<br />

Yij Zji E (0,1) V i, j (3.2)<br />

The first term in the objective function is the tool positioning time, the second<br />

terni is the fixture positioning time, <strong>and</strong> the third term is the time required for<br />

12


tool interchanges. For (3.0 A), (E, E ) yij •z,j) gives the number of distinct tool<br />

interchanges. The implicit assumption for this formulation of the objective function<br />

is that a certain amount of time is taken for each tool change. This is true of systems<br />

which have a large central magazine from which tools travel back <strong>and</strong> forth <strong>and</strong> it<br />

is not economical to have large local tool magazines. The constraint (3.1) forces<br />

one to schedule m parts for production.<br />

Note that Y is dynamic <strong>and</strong> changes with each reconfiguration of the tool magazine.<br />

This reconfiguration is done <strong>by</strong> placing the next q tools dem<strong>and</strong>ed <strong>by</strong> the<br />

forthcoming part sequence in the tool magazine.<br />

If the machines are capable of making tool <strong>and</strong> fixture changes in parallel, then<br />

objective function in the above model would be:<br />

MAX (MIN( E E 2<br />

• -tj • .1.1<br />

i j<br />

- ) MIN(s bi'(1 l'fr)zy )) (3.0B)<br />

The use of b- (1-1b ' )'" in (3.0 B) implies that there is a set up each time the tool<br />

9<br />

magazine is exhausted <strong>and</strong> that the parts are sequenced in the order of tool usage.<br />

The evaluation of machine flexiblity requires the simultaneous determination of<br />

both the part sequence <strong>and</strong> the sequence of tools. In order to focus on the set<br />

up times associated with machine characteristics (as discussed above) <strong>and</strong> to make<br />

our analysis tractable we assume that the sequence of parts is given. This is not<br />

unrealistic since due dates are often exogenously given to the operations manager.<br />

Simple heuristics can be used to solve the above problem. If both the time<br />

required to change tools in the magazine <strong>and</strong> the time to change the tool in the<br />

machine dominat es over the time to change fixture, a reasonable heuristic would be<br />

to group the parts <strong>by</strong> tool used. If, conversely, the fixture changing time dominates,<br />

the parts could be grouped <strong>by</strong> fixture utilized.<br />

3.1 An example<br />

Say u i; = 1 V i j <strong>and</strong> 0 otherwise, <strong>and</strong> let s = 10, q = 2, <strong>and</strong> m = 4. Also let<br />

v,, = 1 if the tool for part i is diffèrent from part j <strong>and</strong> 0 otherwise. The resulting<br />

problem formulation using (3.0A) is<br />

MIN E E( Zii vij • + 10 • E E yi; • zij<br />

i i i iei<br />

13


Subject to:<br />

E zi; _ 3<br />

E (0,1) V i,j (3.1)<br />

Let the sequence in which the parts are to be processed be 1, 2, 3, 4 with tools<br />

required being A, B, C, <strong>and</strong> B, respectively. Hence the v vs are as given in the<br />

following matrix:<br />

0 1 1 1<br />

1 0 1 0<br />

1 1 0 1<br />

1 0 1 0<br />

where, for example, th 2 = 1 since the tool for part 1 is A <strong>and</strong> the tool for part 2 is<br />

B, thus setting up the machine for part 2 involves a tool change. Assuming that the<br />

fixture <strong>and</strong> tool required <strong>by</strong> the first part is already in place the above expression<br />

is then reduced to:<br />

MIN {6 + 10 • (Y22 + Y23 + Y34)}"<br />

This minimization involves choosing which tools belong in the magazine at a particular<br />

state in production. We know that, biA re b b2B = b3B = b4c = 1 with ail other<br />

= 0. Let the initial configuration of the tool magazine contain tools A <strong>and</strong> B,<br />

i.e. let. Y = {A, B}. Then, y12 = 0 since 6 1 ,4 = b2B = 1. In order to process part. 3<br />

we need to reconfigure the tool magazine since it does not contain tool C. Y is reset<br />

to Y = {B,C} since tools B <strong>and</strong> C are the next two tools required. Then y23 = 1,<br />

since b2B = 1 but 634 = b3B = 0 , <strong>and</strong> y34 = 0, since bac = b4B = 1. The result is<br />

one tool change removing tool A <strong>and</strong> replacing it with tool C at a cost of s. The<br />

objective function value, MF, would then be 16. A better solution would be the<br />

sequence 1, 2, 4, 3, which has the same number of tool changes to the tool magazine<br />

(one), yet fewer tool changes to the machine (two instead of three), yielding an MF<br />

of 15.<br />

In the above models we have used set up times as a surrogate measure for evaluating<br />

the effort required to make the necessary changes to produce a given set<br />

of parts. This allows for the comparison of various manufacturing system designs<br />

which are capable of producing the same part mix. The models also give the capability<br />

of measuring the effort involved in producing varions sets of parts with the<br />

saine production system. In such a case the model must be solved for each set<br />

of parts. Thus these models could be applied to the allocation of sets of parts to<br />

varions plants.<br />

4 Conclusion<br />

We have provided several models for the evaluation of alternative manufacturing<br />

system designs with respect to routing <strong>and</strong> machine flexibility. These models facilitate<br />

the design/technology choice process <strong>by</strong> providing a link between operational<br />

performance <strong>and</strong> economic implications.<br />

We present two models <strong>by</strong> which routing flexibilty can be assessed. The resulting<br />

measure is the maximum contribution in monetary terms which is easily interpreted.<br />

These models incorporate factors such as reliability of the machines <strong>and</strong> the capacity<br />

available for production. Machine fiexibility is assessed <strong>by</strong> the minimum set up time<br />

required to produce a given set of parts. The utility of this measure could be seen<br />

in choosing a design or in deciding the portfolio of part types to be produced on a<br />

given system. This measure clearly shows that flexibility is a function of operational<br />

considerations such as sequencing of parts <strong>and</strong> the positioning of tools. It also shows<br />

what impact such operational decisions have on the plant finances.<br />

Clearly further work is required to strengthen the link between operational measures<br />

of a manufacturing system <strong>and</strong> the corresponding impact on a firm's financial<br />

status. hout models defining such links managers will continue to have difficulty<br />

assessing investments which contribute to a firm's manufacturing flexibility. Operational<br />

measures of the other types manufacturing flexibility eg. process, product.,<br />

volume, etc.. also need to be developed. Finally. relationships between the different<br />

types of fiexibility need to be more clearly established.<br />
