書名：Factory Physics 3/e 作者：Hopp 出版社：Waveland Press 出版日期：2008/00/00 ISBN：9781577667391 內容簡介 New “science of manufacturing” discussion in Chapter 6 now makes the Factory Physics section (Part II, already the most important part of the book) more concise and consistent. This chapter now sets up all of Part II as a coherent framework of interrelated models and concepts. New set of “performance measures” in Chapter 9 provides metrics for capacity effectiveness, inventory effectiveness and time effectiveness. These measures provide a basis for evaluating overall operational efficiency in practical settings. Newly expanded Chapter 12 now covers both the statistical foundations and organizational elements of the Six Sigma approach to quality. This treatment makes it clear how Six Sigma and Factory Physics can be used as complementary components of an overall process improvement effort. Industrial grade Factory Physics software is now available for student use at no charge, along with software case studies and PowerPoint presentations. Because of the software learning curve, the package is most suited for a large case study or a capstone experience. Interested faculty should send an email to info@factoryphysics.com to obtain materials. More Problems: the number of exercises at the end of each chapter was increased to offer the reader a wider range of practice problems. 目錄 0. Factory Physics? Part I: THE LESSONS OF HISTORY 1.
