- Summary:
- S2Imports from foreign furniture manufacturers are on the rise and American manufacturers must take advantage of recent technological advances to regain their lost market share. To facilitate implementation of technologies for improving productivity and quality, a graphic model of the wood furniture production process has been developed using the IDEF (ICAM--Integrated Computer Aided Manufacturing-DEFinition) modeling process and is presented. IDEF modeling provides a graphic representation of the production process by presenting the information in easy-to-grasp chunks. A description of the modeling process explains how the model represents the data that flows through the plant, the activities in the plant, and their interaction. Analysis of the model may result in improved communication, recognition of specific points for implementing new technologies, evidence of bottlenecks and problem areas, simplified inventory control, or reduction of paperwork.
