In recent years, the international community has placed great emphasis on environmental protection issues. The United Nations has also successively enacted relevant laws and regulations to restrain international greenhouse gas emissions and some countries implemented carbon tax levies to reduce air pollution. The tire industry is a manufacturing industry with high pollution and high carbon emissions; therefore, the purpose of this paper is to propose a framework of production planning and control with carbon tax under Industry 4.0 and use the tire industry as the illustrative example. In this framework, the mathematical programming model, with Activity-Based Costing (ABC) and Theory of Constraints (TOC) for production planning, is used to achieve the optimal solution under various production and sale constraints in order to find the optimal product-mix maximizing the profit. On the other hand, Industry 4.0 utilizes new technologies such as 3D printing, robot and automated guided vehicle (AGV) and links all the components in the manufacturing systems by using various sensor systems, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) to collect and monitor the activity data of all the components in real-time, to give intelligent responses to various problems that may arise in the factory by the real-time analysis results of cloud computing and big data and to attain the various benefits of Industry 4.0 implementation. The parameters of the mathematical programming model will be updated periodically from the new big data set. In this paper, an illustrative example is used is used to demonstrate the application of the model. From the optimal solution and sensitivity analyses on increasing the raw material’s prices and carbon taxes will affect the profits. This framework can provide a general approach to help companies execute production management in the way of more efficiency, less cost, lower carbon emission and higher quality across the value chain for the tire industry and other industries.

“…It combines the flexibility and personalization of custom-made products with the low unit costs. The problem of mass customization is in connection to the Industry 4.0 concept, and variety based complexity issues were discussed by works Schmidt et al (2015), Modrak (2017), Rauch et al (2016); research results in complexity metrics problems for mass customization were published for example by works Mourtzis et al (2017Mourtzis et al ( , 2018, Modrak and Soltysova (2018).…”

“…In recent years, the concept of sustainability has attracted the attention of many researchers, the world trying to reach the level of sustainable processing, or "green manufacturing", as the term came to be known in recent years [1,2], and "sustainable processing" has been defined in many ways. The most well-known definition refers to the limitation imposed by the state of technology and social organization upon the ability of the environment to meet the needs of the present and the future [3,4].…”

Improving the Sustainability of the Manufacturing Process by Constructively Optimizing the Parts “Transition Type Fitting”

et al. 2019

Transition type fittings are components often used in the transport facilities of fluid, and which allow the passage from a polyethylene (PE) pipe to a metal pipe. Within the paper, there was carried out a sustainability analysis of the manufacturing process for four types of existing transition fittings, and based upon the findings, there was proposed another type of transition fitting. For this new type of transition fitting, both a sustainability analysis and a finite element method (FEM) analysis were performed. Thus, based upon the analysis, there was found that the new constructive variant of transitional fitting is much more sustainable in the sense that the cost of processing has decreased from 0.77 Euros/part to 0.20 Euros/part, and this proposed transition fitting is resistant to tensile stress at a force of 25,800 N, a very large force that shows that the adopted assembly, for this new type of transition fitting will not yield during the operation.
