-
formats by which a facility is arranged are defined by ?
the general pattern of work flow and there are 5 basic structures
-
project layout
the product, because of its sheer bulk or weight remains fixed in a location. equipment is moved to the product rather than product moved to the equipment
-
5 basic structures
- project layout
- workcenter
- manufacturing cell
- assembly line
- continuous process
-
workcenter
process structure suited for low-volume production of a great variety of nonstandard products. departments and are focused on a particular type of operation.
-
manufacturing cell
an area where simple items are similar in processing requirements are produced.
-
assembly line
process structure designed to make discrete parts. parts are moved through a set of specially designed workstations at a controlled rate
-
continuous process
an often automated process that converts raw materials into a finished product in one continuous process
-
product-process matrix
shows the relationship between different production units and how they are used depending on product volume and the degree of product standardization
-
break-even analysis
standard approach to choosing among alternative processes or equipment; presents alternative profits and losses due to the number of units being sold
-
process flow design components (4)
assembly drawing, assembly chart, operation and route sheet, process flowchart
-
manufacturing process flow design
method to evaluate the specific processes that raw materials, parts and subassemblies follow as they move through the plant
-
assembly drawing
exploded view of the product showing its component parts
-
assembly charts
uses the information presented in the assembly drawing and defines how parts go together, their order of assembly ad often overall material flow pattern
-
operation and route sheet
specifies operations and process routing for a particular part
-
process flowchart
what happens to the product as it progresses through the productive facility; eliminate/minimize unneeded activities
