Preventive maintenance scheduling based on failure data in a medical device manufacturing facility (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This study was conducted at a medical device production facility where analysis was done on the reliability of Product S barrel molds for the purpose of predicting preventive maintenance (PM) schedule. Pareto Rule was ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Current electronics and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) manufacture is optimized for the production of very high-volume parts on a limited range of substrates. These processes are long, consume large amounts of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The principles of lean manufacturing have taken hold in a number of manufacturing firms as a means of achieving operational excellence through continuous improvement. Womack and Jones have suggested a generalized process ...
