Abstract
In the polymeric products industry, the lean production system is perceived as a solution to reduce difficulties of manufacturing automation processes complexity while reducing used resources, eliminate losses, and increase efficiency, flexibility, and profitability. Industry 4.0 is the stage of intelligent automation that exploits the latest developments in polymeric products engineering. Through implementation of information technology and the Industry 4.0 concepts in lean manufacturing 4.0 of polymeric injection molding products is a challenge that needs a strategic approach to efficient interconnection processes. The main achievements of intelligent polymeric products manufacturing system are based on the versatility and individualization of designing and manufacturing processes. The transition from lean manufacturing to Lean 4.0 manufacturing system is a complex project that requires physical production system update, transforming lean tools, build the cyber production system, define and implement Lean 4.0 tools, and connecting them into a new integrated cyber–physical system. This paper presents a strategy for identifying the transition that can be approached within an intelligent and adaptive molding cell fabrication of polymeric products industry.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
