Objective
An integrated system has been identified in an earlier BRITE project (P-1320) as a key element to improving efficiency in the furniture industry. The project is a continuation of this completed BRITE project.
It is the aim of the project to develop a Group Technology System, including a pre-production and detailed process planning system. Its is the intended to integrate the system with the CAD/CAM system and the MRP system of the participating companies.
A Group Technology System is being developed, including a preproduction and detailed process planning system, with the intention of integrating the system with the computer aided design (CAD), computer aided manufacture (CAM) system and the materials requirements planning (MRP) system of the participating companies. The system consists of a computer programme, which on the basis of the developed Group Technology classification can create detailed process plans for the components that require manufacturing. By using this computer programme, normally referred to as computer aided process planning (CAPP) system, a process plan database is built which can be used by the MPR system, the capacity and detailed planning system and the Shop Floor Control System (SFC). A software model developed which, by means of the Group Technology code and the established process plan database, will make it possible to simulate production cycles and replan where necessary. The development will comprise an adaption to an existing detailed planning system or an adaptation to an existing SFC system.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
