Under the concept of "Industry 4.0", production processes will be pushed to be increasingly interconnected, information based on a real time basis and, necessarily, much more efficient. In this context, capacity optimization goes beyond the traditional aim of capacity maximization, contributing also for organization's profitability and value. Indeed, lean management and continuous improvement approaches suggest capacity optimization instead of maximization. The study of capacity optimization

This paper presents and discusses a mathematical model for capacity management based on different costing models (ABC and TDABC). A generic model has been developed and it was used to analyze idle capacity and to design strategies towards the maximization of organization's value. The trade-off capacity maximization vs operational efficiency is highlighted and it is shown that capacity optimization might hide operational inefficiency. Abstract Modern production environments require transparency regarding production status to detect the optimization potential. One of the indicators to identify this potential is the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). It is usually calculated by hand. In cyber physical production systems and an implemented Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), a permanent analysis of the optimization potential is required. This approach faces the challenges of manual efforts to gather machine data. To get a flexible sensor set, methods of energy supply and wireless radio modules are analysed. The article shows the possibilities of energy consumption to fulfil the requirements of energy harvesting.
