Study On Flexibility And Performance Of Mass Customization Production Environment

With the economic globalization and the rapid development of advanced technology,market competition continues to intensify. Competition among enterprises is gradually shifted competition that based on customer personalized demand. Modern manufacturing field, in order to keep core competitiveness, enterprises need to produce with both low cost and short delivery time, and meet customer’s gradually increased personalized demand, therefore, mass customization emerged. How enterprises can survive and development is the core problem both in academia and business currently. Adapt to the dynamic and volatile environment is a necessary condition for enterprises survival. This allows enterprises need to have a flexible manufacturing system, and develop performance is the eternal goal for enterprises development. Reasonable measure of performance is the foundation for its development, however, traditional measure methods which treat finance as the main performance had not met the requirement of modern market environment, and it need to be depth study of performance based on flexibility. thus, study of flexibility under mass customization production environment and study of performance based on it will support enterprises to analysis and make decision about manufacturing system flexibility and performance,and will support enterprises to assess and develop current situation, finally, promote the survival and development of enterprises。The paper set mass customization as background. Firstly, it discusses mass customization production environment, and analysis its connotation, feature, structure and effect relationship with manufacturing system. Secondly, it study of flexibility under mass customization production environment, and defines its connotation. According to the idea of environment effect transform into requirement, requirement drives flexible production, flexibility need to attach entity to expression, analysis the expression principles and expression forms of flexibility, and thereby divide flexibility under mass customization production environment into nine dimensions. Next, the paper study of measure for flexibility with the method of evaluation, It get the evaluation value with three dimension vector model, and combine analytic hierarchy process and entropy weight method to get the evaluation weight, and using weighting method to get the final evaluation value. Next, the paper study of manufacturing system performance under mass customization production environment, and defines its connotation, and discuss the complex relationships of flexibility and performance, and set flexibility as the core metrics of performance, it discuss the key technologies of performance metrics based on flexibility, and introduced balanced scorecard and evaluation method with LWD operator and LOWA operator, it build performance comprehensive measure model include indicators, dimension and complex three levels. Finally, the paper expounds the specific application process and application results through cases。...
