manufacturing resource. In the internal of the cube, the manufacturing resource elements interact
with each other.
(i) The structure of the manufacturing resource expressesthe physical properties of the
elements composed in one manufacturing resource. These properties include function,
configuration and the logical links between elements. The structure is the foundation of
the resource capability. The structure format in the structure makes it convenient to
capture the capability expression of different manufacturing levels.
(ii) The capability of manufacturing resource expresses the manufacturing capability of
each manufacturing level. Each level has different capability definition. For example, at
the workstation level, the manufacturing capabilities include the kings of lathes, the
precision produced with the equipment, etc. As a whole, the manufacturing resource
capability includes the productivity, machinability and material cost.
(iii) The status of manufacturing resource expresses the current status of manufacturing
resource such as performance, task-charge and change trend. This property determines
the manufacturing capability under the current conditions.
Conclusion:
The implication of a general model of manufacturing resource is to smooth the way of
sharing and maintaining resource information. From this foundation, each individual
product development stage can make decisions according to the practical and on-time
manufacturing resource. The general model of manufacturing resource is useful in
enhancing the whole performance of an enterprise and in making the management
decisions more effectively and feasibility.
