Book Manufacturing Plant Layout

Download or read book Manufacturing Plant Layout written by Edward John Phillips and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A step-by-step guide to planning new factories and plant rearrangements, this book describes proven analytical methods for: Calculating space requirements, Activity-pair relationships, Materials handling analysis, Generating alternative layout. This proven strategy masterfully weaves together the very best elements of layout methods for manufacturing cells, JIT, demand-flow and constraint-based flow manufacturing philosophies, in addition to traditional job shop and assembly line operations. Learn how to methodically reduce or totally rid a design of profit eroders during the plan/design of a cost efficient manufacturing layout.

Book Manufacturing Facilities Design and Material Handling

Download or read book Manufacturing Facilities Design and Material Handling written by Matthew P. Stephens and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for junior- and senior-level courses in Plant and Facilities Planning and Manufacturing Systems and Procedures, this textbook is also suitable for graduate-level and two-year college courses. The book takes a practical, hands-on, project-oriented approach to exploring the techniques and procedures for developing an efficient facility layout. It also introduces state-of-the-art tools including computer simulation. Access to Layout-iQ workspace planning software is included for purchasers of the book. Theoretical concepts are clearly explained and then rapidly applied to a practical setting through a detailed case study at the end of the volume. The book systematically leads students through the collection, analysis, and development of information to produce a quality functional plant layout for a lean manufacturing environment. All aspects of facility design, from receiving to shipping, are covered. In the fifth edition of this successful book, previously published by Prentice Hall, numerous updates and corrections have been made. Also, rather than including brief case-in-point examples at the end of each chapter, a single, detailed case study is provided that better exposes students to the multiple considerations that need to be taken into account when improving efficiency in a real manufacturing facility. The textbook has enjoyed substantial international adoptions and has been translated into Spanish and Chinese. This replaces the 4th Edition by Prentice Hall (ISBN# 978-0135001059).

Book A Decision Support System for Manufactured Housing Production Process Planning and Facility Layout

Download or read book A Decision Support System for Manufactured Housing Production Process Planning and Facility Layout written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Productivity improvement of manufactured housing (MH) production systems has been a great concern to manufacturers and production managers. The evaluation of the production system efficiency in the factory is essential for meeting the growing demand of customers with respect to design and size of the manufactured housing product (MH). The purpose of this research is to resolve some of the problems of the MH production system. The problems of the existing system are identified in the masters thesis, Abu Hammad 2001, as follows: i) process bottlenecks hindering productivity, ii) unbalanced processes, and iii) layout limitations to the production capacity. Moreover, a lack of technology is observed in the existing MH operations. Existing production systems employing the traditional production line have low throughput and are inefficient. This dissertation research explores alternative layout designs that are proven via simulation to be more efficient and productive. Additionally, an advanced MH production system employing recent theories in technology and manufacturing is addressed in this research. The major contribution of this dissertation is to develop a decision support system (DSS), which provides the MH industry with an efficient tool to streamline the performance of existing MH facilities. This dissertation investigates the interrelation impact of multiple factors on the productivity of four modules: (i) market, (ii) factory, (iii) manufactured housing processes, and (iv) production system layout. The following objectives have been achieved in support of the stated goal: 1. Develop a streamlined MH process; 2. Develop optimization models to streamline the activities and predict relevant parameters; 3. Develop advanced layout designs employing recent theories in manufacturing (i.e., lean production theory). The DSS provides assistance in the following decisions: (i) selecting an efficient system layout matching user requirements, (ii) streamlining activities and operations of the overall production system, and (iii) predicting the productivity and product sizes based on the organizational requirements. Finally, a feedback from the manufacturers has indicated that the DSS meets a crucial need for streamlining the system operations. The proposed DSS is a practical, simple, and accurate tool for scheduling and planning the operations, resources, and material requirements of the production system.

Book Production Flow Analysis for Planning Group Technology

Download or read book Production Flow Analysis for Planning Group Technology written by John L. Burbidge and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an in-depth account of one of the most important strategic tools available to manufacturing analysts. The author, a nationally known expert in the field, provides much needed guidance on production flow analysis, a new technique that will help save time and money by minimizing set-up times and reducing the size of buffering stocks of components. The volume demonstrates the use of route cards to achieve a total division of made components into families and a parallel division of existing machines into groups using previously established processing methods.
