摘要

在21世紀全球競爭的環境下，製造業面臨著無法精確預測迅速改變的市場需求。為了確保競爭力，可重構製造系統(Reconfigurable Manufacturing System, RMS)在系統設計之初須將模組性(Modularity)、可轉換性(Convertibility)、可整合性(Integrability)、可擴充性(Scalability)、客製化(Customization)和可診斷性(Diagnosibility)嵌入於系統的配置中，當遇到市場需求變動時能夠迅速重構系統配置回應市場需求，為一種新型態的製造系統。本研究在模擬器設計時引入模組化(Modular)之設計概念，建構各種機台(Machine)或設備(Equipment)模組，如電腦數值控制(Computer Numerical Control, CNC)加工機與軌道式搬運車(Rail Guided Vehicle, RGV)等模組，用以模擬其運作模式。因此，未來若有新型態的機台運作模式，方能依模組的形式增添至系統中，使模擬器達到一定程度之可重構性。
為了驗證整合式可重構製造系統具有跨越線(Crossover lines)的系統配置與傳統不具有跨越線的平行式系統配置之間的差異，本研究將以相同的生產資源配置設計另一種平行線製造系統(Parallel Lines Manufacturing System, PLMS)之模擬器，透過模擬的方式比較兩種系統配置對於機台可靠度(Reliability)下降與不同派工法則(Dispatching rule)之績效差異。最後，再針對整合式可重構製造系統，探討其混料比、托板數量與機台數量的調整對於生產績效之影響，提出本研究之論點供未來系統配置考量，以期未來能夠降低重構系統配置之時間與成本。

In the 21st century global competitive environment, the manufacturing industry is facing the rapidly changing market demands which are impossible to be precisely predicted. In order to ensure competitiveness, Reconfigurable Manufacturing System (RMS) needs to embed Modularity, Convertibility, Integrability, Scalability, Customization and Diagnosibility characteristics in the system configuration in the beginning of the system design. When facing changes in market demand, we can quickly reconstruct the system configuration to respond the market demand as a new kind of manufacturing system. In this study, the concept of modular is introduced in the simulator design, to construct a variety of machine or equipment modules, such as CNC, RGV and other modules to simulate the mode of operation. Therefore, if there is a new type of machine mode of operation, we can add it to the system in the form of module, and the simulator will be able to achieve a certain degree of reconfigurability.
In order to verify the differences between IRMS with the Crossover Lines and the one without the Crossover Lines structure which is parallel system configuration, this study case will use the same productive resources configuration to design another simulator of Parallel Lines Manufacturing System (PLMS). Through the simulating method we can compare the performance differences of the two system configurations in terms of their machine reliability declines and different dispatching rules. Finally, focusing on IRMS, we discuss the effects of the productive performance with the adjustment of the mixing ratio, pallet and machine quantities. The arguments of this study can be considered for future system configuration, we expect to reduce time and costs in the reconstruction.
