Lectures

Goal

Introducing the students into the factories, factory facilities, transport and warehouse systems design process logic is the main goal. Development of the student system design creative and innovative abilities in order to increase the production, warehouse and logistic activities efficiency, contributing to the overall country industrial development is also the main issue.

Outcome

Upon successful completion of this course, students should be able to: - Make a project requirement for factory, factory facilities, transport, storage and logistic systems planning. - Make a calculation of needed technological and additional equipment, working power, working places, needed areas and material flow. - Make a layout of the factory, factory facilities, transport, storage and logistic systems. - Calculate the basic elementary subsystems performances (by queueing systems modeling) of the factory, factory facilities, transport, storage and logistic systems. - Make a cast iron foundry concept study.

Theoretical teaching

Systematic design approach. Systems building. Feasibility studies. Design task. Main production programs. Production and technical production capacities. Factories subsystems and workshops. Technological project documentation. Design procedure. Production systems working regime. Working time fund. Production equipment needs estimation. Working space needs estimation. Working power needs estimation. Layout design. Flexible manufacturing systems definition, application fields and main characteristics. Layout design models. Material flow. Main logistic chain managing principles. Elementary subsystems (knot points) main characteristic. Queuing systems main foundations. Material flow analyzing models. Basic layout design inputs. Energy supply. Heating, ventilation and de-dusting. Master plan. Case studies and topics consulting.

Practical teaching

Queuing model choosing for characteristic production and transport processes modeling. Computer calculation of queuing models statistics (outcome working parameters). Foundry concept study: Smeltery department production equipment needs estimation; Molding sand preparation department technology choosing and production equipment needs estimation; Core sand preparation department technology choosing and production equipment needs estimation;Mold cleaning department technology choosing and production equipment needs estimation; Foundry warehouse design; Some department crane or conveyer basic design parameters and capacity estimation; Foundry layout design; Foundry one department detailed layout design. Consulting and recommendations for factories, factory facilities, transport and logistic (warehouse-distributive) subsystems and systems modeling and designing.
