COMPUTER INTEGRATED MANUFACTURING (CIM)


A Manufacturing System that uses computer as the center of control of the entire factory, which not only involves the computerization of fabrication and assembly processes but also handles information flow for production control, quality, maintenance, material handling and inventory control in a totally integrated system is known as Computer Integrated Manufacturing or CIM.

COMPUTER INTEGRATED MANUFACTURING (CIM)


Other definitions: 1. CIM includes off-line procedures for using the computer to assist people to better understand and control a factory. 2. The on-line computer control and linking together of all functions in a manufacturing system is called CIM.

Goals of CIM

To reduce production lead time (reduced design time using CAD, CAM etc.) To create balance production lines ( eliminating queues) To achieve zero setup time. To maintain reliability with zero downtime. To increase product repeatability with zero defects. Minimum data handling resulting in zero data errors. Development of distributed intelligence that enables zero-manned operations.

Modular Approach of CIM Installation


CIM is large. Expensive. For small companies its installation disturbs existing operations. That is why modular installation approach is more appropriate. Reduces risks. Lower initial investments. During implementation productivity gain can be utilized for next module installation.
Note: key to the advancement is MANAGEMENT, not Computer not Technology.

Advancements by CIM

Customer orders via modem and placed directly into database. Production schedules automatically. Part specification and process parameters loaded directly into numerical control. Raw materials automatically order from venders via modem. Computer based invoicing and backorder communication with customer. Inspections and Monitoring (machines, production, process parameters). No direct labor. Reduced lead times (CAD/CAM). Reduced in-process inventory (use of buffers). Elevated preventive maintenance (zero downtime). All systems communicate using common language or protocols. Real time status of Production (quality, order, backlog, maintenance) and printed reports also.
