A directly linked processing and assembly system without buffer storage is very effective in simplifying inventory control and reducing lead time. But such a system is not adopted so often mainly because it is difficult to maintain a high production rate. To cope with this trend, we analyzed the relation between production rate and buffer storage by GPSS simulations, considering failure rate and repair rate. Consequently, we found the conditions necessary to attain the same production rate of a processing and assembly system linked with buffer storage. Then, based on this result, we developed an assembly equipment for cross-flow fans.
