摘要
Economic efficiency of a multi-station transfer line （TL） is evaluated directly by the quantity of parts produced; therefore, each single manufactured part counts. The contribution presents an approach which applies a reliability-adaptive operating strategy in combination with tool derating. It is the objective to hold the system harmonisation of tool changes as maintenance actions. The significant effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated by different configurations and contexts. The output-time function of a TL without reliability-adaptive control is compared with functions of a system with reliability-adaptive control.
