Abstract

To achieve worldwide high productivity and quality assurance of global production, the authors considered the necessity of including the above with strategic application of the TPS, and clarified the Advanced TPS as the global production by manufacturing technology for the strategic administration of production facilities. Nowadays, we have established manufacturing technology by innovative maintenance of Toyota, a most advanced automotive manufacturing enterprise. Therefore, we propose the V-MICS (utilizing Visualization-Maintenance Innovated Computer System) consisting of five steps (AML-1 to AML-5). Concretely for transfer of the maintenance skill, in particular we will accomplish a procedure combining DB (database) and CG (computer graphics). With regard to the former we will construct a DB for easier accumulation of know-how for parts replacement and other jobs. As regards to the latter, we will provide the instructions to enable even a person not familiarized with machine-drawings to carry out dairy inspection. As a result, we will not only attain considerable reduction of the maintenance cost, but also realize a lot of benefits such as more improved availability when we start up the global production in the world.
