Abstract
Problem Statement (Relevance). Objectives. The technological documentation of the unified system of technological preparation of production (USTPP) provides the ability to track quality only at the level of assessing the suitability of auto components batch. For management according to modern requirements the values of the most important (special) quality characteristics must be tracked for each operation at all stages of the life cycle of an individual unit of an auto component: from the extraction of the initial product from the natural environment to the preparation of the used parts material for disposal. Methods Applied. Systems analysis and process approach have been used in the present study. Originality. It is proposed to consider the stages of the life cycle of a part as a single flow of technological processes, differentiated up to individual processes of creating individual simplest elements of the part from the extraction of the initial components of its material from the natural environment to disposal after operating as part of machine units. Result. A universal approach to constructing process flow maps for all types of technologies has been developed with the ability to differentiate their content by hierarchical levels to an acceptable differentiation depth sufficient to solve a particular production task. The following interrelated stages of the part life cycle are distinguished at the top level: extraction of the initial component from the natural environment, manufacture of a semi-finished product for parts, manufacture of a part, inclusion of a part in the product, use of a part in the product, preparation of the part material for disposal. Each stage of the life cycle is differentiated into process routes. Process routes consist of individual operations that can be differentiated into individual transitions for the formation of individual quality indicators. Practical Relevance. Forms of process flow maps have been obtained that are convenient to use for identifying the operations of occurrence of the most significant potential defects, as well as defects in which the reasons for their occurrence are generated (primary discrepancies in special quality characteristics).
