This book offers a comprehensive exploration of a new manufacturing mode designed to revolutionize the reliability of interdependent networks. It provides the necessary theoretical foundation and practical implementation guidance for Fractal Manufacturing with Variable Quantum Flow, an innovative manufacturing approach tailored to reduce process lead time (PLT) and to meet the demands of value chains reliant on 100% on-time delivery (OTD). The book introduces readers to introductory concepts, delves into the evolution from the BCT Deviation Function to Fractal Manufacturing, characterizes the Fractal Manufacturing system, and explores additional aspects beyond its modeling. With a focus on non-deterministic business environments and make-to-order productions, this book presents a pushed JIT system that is poised to transform manufacturing practices

Über Autor(innen)

Bruno G. Rüttimann, Dr.-Ing. MBA, MBB, studied electronic engineering at the Polytechnic Institute of Milan and business administration at the Bocconi University. During 20 years of international management career in multinational companies of the aluminium industry, he was appointed for different positions such as, managing director, director of business development, strategic planning, or continuous improvement, gaining deep insight in management, M&A, industry logics, globalization, as well as operational excellence. He is a well-known speaker at international industry and academic congresses having published several academic papers, articles, and books with topics of globalization and lean manufacturing. His main contribution consists of having developed new global trade and FDI models as well as formalizing Lean into a consistent didactic manufacturing theory. During more than ten years he has been lecturer at ETH Zurich at the D-MAVT department for statistics and production theory. Now he primarily works as a consultant at inspire AG, a technology transfer institute of ETHZ.
