Effiziente Montagesysteme ohne Band und Takt: Sind modulare Produktionsstrukturen eine konkurrenzfähige Alternative zur abgetakteten Linie?
Increasing numbers of product variants and changing production volumes cause high losses of efficiency in rigidly linked synchronized assembly lines. Modular production structures of flexibly linked process modules present an alternative to such lines. This paper explores the ability of such modular structures to produce personalized products in high volumes with high performance and determines the conditions for their competitiveness compared to the classic line
