Planning Facilities Facility location Facility layout Technology
Planning Facilities • Facility layout • Fixed-Position Layout • Project Organization • Process Layout (intermittent organizations) • Product Layout (continuous manufacturing organization)
Planning Facilities Fixed-Position Layout--Project organization All resources needed for a product are brought to a central location. Process Layout--Intermittent organization Layout is organized into departments that group related processes. Product Layout--Continuous manufacturing organization Production is broken down into relatively simple tasks assigned to workers positioned along a line.
Planning Facilities -- Technology Computer-assisted design (CAD) – design of components, products, and processes utilizing computers instead of paper & pencil Computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM) – manufacturing that employs specialized computer systems to actually guide and control the transformation processes.
Planning Facilities -- Technology Flexible manufacturing – the direction of machinery by computers to adapt to different versions of similar operations Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) – a complete system that designs products, manages machines and materials, and controls the operations function.
