INTRODUCTION & OBJECTIVE OF THE WORKSHOP
The manufacturing system is considered to be a paradigm capable of
carrying out value added work on a part or product in order to satisfy
customer requirements. The objective of manufacturing system is to
produce high quality products which are useful for the society with
some giving constraints and objectives. At factory or shop floor level,
automation, control, material handling and quality control technologies
are the basic building blocks of any manufacturing system. When
clubbed with manufacturing support then this manufacturing system is
often referred to as production system. Manufacturing systems have
covered a wide journey of its transformation from Dedicated
Manufacturing Line (DML) to Cellular Manufacturing and then to
Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) and finally to Reconfigurable
Manufacturing System (RMS). This evolution of manufacturing
systems with time is governed by market and customer requirements
along with the survival instinct imposed by fierce competition among
manufacturers. Designing a cost effective manufacturing system and
operating it efficiently is a key competitive challenge in the present
manufacturing arena.
The current global manufacturing scenario is characterized by strong
competition among businesses which includes implementation of state
of art technologies in product design and processes, highly customized
products, very strong supply-chain relationships, abrupt fluctuations in
product design and demand, shorter lead times and rapid introduction of
new products and that too at reduced costs. Also, some very frequent
governmental regulations mostly based on environment and climate
may also lead to alteration, redesign and reconfiguration of
manufacturing systems. In order to survive within such dynamic,
constrained and highly demanding global manufacturing environment,
the manufacturing enterprises are forced to opt for such manufacturing
systems which are responsive to changes. In order to translate the
threats into prospects the manufacturers/researchers all over the world
are inspired to explore and develop better techniques for manufacturing.
In this backdrop of increasingly challenging manufacturing scenario,
this workshop has been planned with the objective to provide a platform
to professionals, academicians and research scholars to deliberate on all
issues related to Manufacturing Systems with prime focus on modern
manufacturing paradigms to cope with dynamic market scenario,
application of computers and newer soft computing techniques for
optimization of multiple performance parameters and other pertinent
issues related to the design and operation of Manufacturing Systems.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED
• Modern Manufacturing Systems: scope and challenges
• Most Popular and emerging manufacturing systems
• Flexibilities in the manufacturing systems
• System performance modeling and measurement
• Reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMS) - Introduction
• Design and Operation of RMS
• Designing single reconfigurable product flow line (SRPFL)
• Designing reconfigurable assembly lines
• Future trends
ABOUT IIT ROORKEE
st
IIT Roorkee became the seventh IIT of the country when 21 September
2001 the prestigious University of Roorkee was converted into an IIT.
Founded as Thomason College of Civil Engineering in 1847, this
temple of learning, the oldest engineering institution in Asia and the
first one in the then British Empire, is now 160 years old. The Institute
offers 11 undergraduate courses in Engineering and Architecture and 51
postgraduate courses in different disciplines of Engineering,
Architecture, Management and Sciences along with 5 Integrated Dual
Degree, 3 Integrated M.Tech. and 3 Integrated M.Sc. programs. Ph.D.
programs are conducted in all disciplines.
ABOUT ROORKEE
Roorkee is a part of the State of Uttarakhand and is located at the
foothills of Himalayas. Roorkee Railway Station is on the main line of
Northern Railways having direct links to Delhi, Mumbai, Calcutta,
Amritsar, Jodhpur and Shri Ganganagar. The place is also within easy
reach by road from Delhi (200 km) and Chandigarh (180 km). It is
located on Delhi – Haridwar and Delhi – Dehradun bus routes. Roorkee
is ideally located near several tourist places, like Dehradun (70 km),
Mussoorie (100 km), Haridwar (32 km) and Rishikesh (50 km).
Roorkee is very pleasant in the first half of November and, therefore,
the participants are requested to come with light woolen clothes.
