Computer integrated manufacturing implementation at the Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant: The sixth year of a ten-year plan

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6905798

The strategic and operational plans for the computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) program in the Y-12 Plant are providing for the evolution of the plant's CIM infrastructure from today's environment to the integrated, highly flexible, and more responsive manufacturing systems planned for the 1990s. The program is committed to meeting the CIM directives established by the US Department of Energy and providing the means by which operations can improve the manufacturing performance of the Y-12 Plant. The plant's CIM program charter is a commitment to coordinating efforts to implement and integrate CIM technologies to improve manufacturing performance and thus significantly enhance the plant's ability to meet current and future manufacturing objectives. To achieve these objectives, CIM technologies are being applied to automate manufacturing processes and informations systems.
