2. Downstream-driven flows: production realization
First, we present an overall description of the steering mechanisms for all product flows, to highlight the need for consistency. Next, we'll look at the rules for setting flexibilities, and finally at the characteristics of the main order types and their common combinations.
2.1 Overall description
The vehicle orders expressed by customers, collected each day, are used to pilot as many manufacturing operations as possible. This number of operations is limited by the need to respect the relatively short D p lead time (10 days here, or 2 weeks) which delimits the position of the α line. Orders will be used to drive two types of physical flow linked to the terminal production of vehicles (i.e. finished products)....
