Although continuous production processes are often desired, many processing industries still work in batch mode due to technical limitations. Transitioning to continuous production requires an in-depth understanding of how each unit operation is affected by the shift. This contribution reviews the scientific understanding of similarities and differences between emulsification in turbulent rotor-st

Denna rapport identifierar och analyserar investeringsmöjligheter samt produktionsoperationella förändringar i produktionen av hålpipor. Studien avser en ledande svensk tillverkare i branschen och påbörjas med en analys av företaget självt samt dess kunder. Därefter undersöks förtegets nuvarande produktionsförmåga, varvid investeringsmöjligheter identifieras och analyseras. Slutligen diskuteras ocThis report identifies and investigates possible investment alternatives and operational improvements to the production of perforating punches. The analysis is conducted for a leading Swedish manufacturer in the industry. First, an analysis of the company and its customers is performed, followed by a study of the current production capabilities. Based on this investigation, key investments opportu

This paper studies three different strategies of sourcing. The whole process of this research including the problem definition is exactly based on a real case condition. This paper model sourcing process of required parts and material for a product which is manufactured under the license of Peugeot Company, the mother manufacturer in France. Based on the agreement between Peugeot and the manufactu

During the next years, environmental pressures due to consumption are expected to continue increasing, driven by per capita income increases and resource intensive lifestyles. Although significant income and consumption increases have been experienced, the average level of subjective well being has remained stable over time. This research explores the individual's choice between income and ma

Interconnected modular microfluidic devices (MDs) configured in series and parallel have significantly advanced applications like multi-step chemical reactions with enhanced efficiency, production quality, throughput, and automation. However, managing these interconnected MDs is challenging due to complex fluidic networks and interdependent flow dynamics. This study presents a clamped pressure con

Many research studies have been done to investigate different aspects of environmental challenges. In the product development context, there have been attempts to reduce the environmental impacts of associated activities including the production processes themselves. As a result, various technological improvements have been made and new production processes e.g. powder metallurgy technologies have

With a background in quality systems and retail, Khan chose the Master’s in Service Management, specialising in Supply Chain Management, to explore the subject in depth. Studies in Helsingborg opened doors to roles at IKEA and projects focused on sustainability, data, and innovation.With a background in quality systems and retail, Khan chose the Master’s in Service Management, specialising in Supply Chain Management, to explore the subject in depth.

Secondary packaging solutions presently used to package food goods in e-commerce supply chain are either taken from old supply chains, or sub-optimally developed in a non-holistic manner. Due to the increase use of the Internet in Europe to perform online food purchases, secondary packaging must be adapted to meet these new needs. Therefore, a secondary packaging solution for a Dutch e-grocer was

Plant-based ice cream and whipping cream are increasingly popular as sustainable alternatives to traditional dairy products. Their low fat content makes them much healthier than high-fat dairy products. However, achieving desirable texture and stability in plant-based desserts remains a challenge. This study investigated how different processing conditions (homogenization pressure, upstream/downst

The User Compass Chart (UCC) was used for eliciting middle-age subjects’ experiences of 33 photo-represented easy chairs, including consumer products and chairs designed for nursing-homes as well as institutions in general. The chairs were represented in black and white photos measuring 50 x 50 mm. The vectors used in the chart were most inviting - most repellent and most homelike- most nursing-ho

This paper presents a comprehensive cross-functional analysis of machining operations for ductile cast iron components in the automotive industry, focusing on the problem of chip carryover and its impact on downstream processes. The research aims to understand the role of machining and identify the source of the issue, by analyzing different machining sequences and the chips that affect the final

Several previous articles have discussed different approaches to improving sustainability during machining operations. However, more effective utilization of cutting tools is an approach that has been overlooked in previous investigations. Increasing the effectiveness of cutting tool utilization decreases the need for new tools as well as the resources and energy needed to produce new cutting tool

The furniture market regarding trading with furniture and home decoration products is an expanding market. But despite of good sales the traditional companies are losing market shares. Critical success factors are defined as elements (projects, products, dependants or other factors) that, if not fulfilled will have a great impact on the possibilities of reaching business goals. By defining the com
