摘要: In order to measure complexity and stay competitive, manufacturing companies need be able quantify production complexity. For this reason, two methods were developed within the context of concurrent research projects are compared: Belgian Complexity Calculator, CXC, measures objective Swedish Index, CXI, focuses on subjective complexity, as experienced by operators in stations. This paper presents a comparative analysis comparing them seven relevant existing quantitative examining results from case studies. It is observed that can used compliment one another, where CXC for scanning data automatically CXI in-depth analysis. addition, comparison provides insight how depending scope.
