Normally, Statistic Process Control (SPC) techniques are applied in monitoring production activities in a manufacturing system. With the help of the Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM), the efficiency of data transmission has improved. To examine the fluctuations on a control chart, the SPC tools provide a good platform. However, they are often too dedicated to a specific system type as SPC tools usually devote in well-known parameters such as the dimensions of a work piece, the temperature of an operation process, etc. In this paper, an alternative method is proposed. It is about the studying of the physical entities flowing patterns in a system to obtain an overview of a system instead of measuring specific parameters. This generic monitoring technique can potentially be applied not only in manufacturing systems but any system which contains measurable physical element flows.

“…Because of the diversity of manufacturing decisions that must be made over time, developed an organizing framework that groups them into two major categories, structural and infrastructural decisions. There is an essential agreement on this structure-infrastructure dichotomy in the literature (e.g., Leong et al, 1990;Hill 1995, Tseng et al, 1999, Ng and Hung 2001. Structural decision category addresses the "bricks and mortar" decisions of capital spending.…”

Research has shown that alignment between manufacturing strategy and decisions regarding automation are often of an ad hoc nature, i.e. the support for automation decisions is poor. Support tools to find an appropriate level of automation are thus needed in order to achieve more efficient and robust production systems. The methodology presented in this paper contains five sub-processes where the chosen level of automation is aligned with the manufacturing strategy. Together they form an automation strategy, which secures a desired direction of the firm and also supports robustness and reliability of the manufacturing system due to the holistic approach chosen.
