Modeling integrated CAPP/PPS systems

In order to solve the isolation and the unilateral sequence integration between CAPP and PPS, this paper proposes the integrated system of CAPP and PPS based on distributed and dynamic process planning (ICAPPS), aiming for single-piece, small-lot and made-to-order production (SPSLMOP), and then systematically builds the integrated ICAPPS model. On the basis of the integrated model, this paper constructs the function model of ICAPPS, which includes the designing layer, the part planning layer, the shop planning layer and the scheduling layer in detail, according to the requirement for the rationalization of resource utilization, process design and plan scheduling in SPSLMOP.
