Approach to Assess and Compare the Performances of Production Structures

Abstract:

In this paper an approach to assess the performances of the production structures is introduced. Key figures within this approach are the performance limit of the production structure and the control dependence of the production performance. These figures are visualised for different production structures in a production structure portfolio.
