Example for an assembly line

Stations are an important part of an assembly line. They can be added in the "Station" tab. Only global stations can be added.

There are several options to add stations to an assembly line:

Function Insert existing in the Resources ribbon

Code input into an empty line created by clicking on New row in the ribbon or by pressing Enter in an existing line

To create a new global station and link it directly: Enter the code in an empty row and then click "Local to global"

The same station can only be used once per assembly line.

Note:

Blank rows are not allowed in an assembly line. These are identified by a red exclamation mark at the beginning of the row. Saving is not possible if there are erroneous rows. Saving is aborted with the message "Cannot save element because of incorrect entries."

For details on the use of assembly lines, see "Balancing module" in the "Ressourcen" tab.

Use of assembly lines in cycles:

An Montagelinie consisting of global stations can be created in Explorer. The stations can consist of several global machines or human resources such as operators. For details, see "Ressourcen ".

Select assembly line:

By using the Select button in the Resources ribbon or in the Resources tab next to the Assembly line field, you open a window, in which you can choose the assembly line for the balancing.

Rules:

If an assembly line whose resources are already being used is deleted, these resources become local resources.

If an assembly line is added, but existing resources are already being used, resources with the same code (machine/human resource and parent station) are reassigned, all others are deleted.

Globale übergeordnete Ressourcen dürfen keine lokalen untergeordneten Ressourcen enthalten, nur ebenfalls globale, die schon an der Ressource definiert sein müssen.

If an assembly line is used, it is not possible to add local resources.

Local superordinate resources, e.g. a station, can contain global subordinate resources , e.g. operators as master data.

The order within an assembly line cannot be changed in the Resources tab.
