Study on the Product CAPP-PPC Process Based on Productibility

Abstract

In order to make a rational planning of CAPP-PPC process, the differences of product serial and concurrent CAPP-PPC process were studyed in this paper. Based on Witness, Three kinds of product serial and concurrent CAPP-PPC process simulation model were established for products with different complicated degrees. Simulation results show the time of concurrent process is much shorter than serial process, for complex products, especially obvious.

Simulation of concurrent process planning (CPP) system for machining two different products

“…A CAPP-PPC serial and concurrent model process was presented in this model the process plan was divided into three stages: thus are the initial process planning, process route planning and process specification planning. Also the production planning was divided into three stages: factory level planning, workshop level plans, and process level planning [3]. The CAPP-PPC concurrent process can save production time, reduce production cost and improve the production efficiency.…”
