| # Process Engineering Process engineering defines the assembly process for end items. Process engineering includes processes such as these: Defining and assigning the operations to line stations Linking flattened assembly parts to operations Defining assignments and performing line balancing Defining and assigning line rules to line segments Buffers and line stations Start Manufacturing > Work Centers (tirou0101m000). Use this session to create buffers. Each line segment must start with a buffer. At the buffer, the orders wait to be processed and can be rescheduled so that they are carried out in a different sequence. Next, In the Station Type field, create stations of type Buffer or Line Station. Assembly Lines Start Manufacturing > Assembly Control > Assembly Lines (tiasl1530m000). Use this session to create an assembly line. You can view which line segments belong to the assembly line in the Assembly Line - Line Segments (tiasl1541m000) session. You can view which lines stations belong to the assembly line in the Line Segment - Stations (tiasl1550m000) session. |
