摘要:

The manufacture of sugar from crushed sugar-cane involves processing through a number of stages. The yield of crystalline sugar per unit of processed juice depends on a variety of process parameters. Increased yield is also related to the determination of a suitable mix of in-process ingredients. In this paper a case study is presented where the use of product mix has been made. The product mix in this case is arrived at by considering the profit motive of the entrepreneur and keeping in view the constraints imposed by the processing times at various stages and the capacities of the equipment at each stage. The problems of implementation of the proposed product mix were then explored and a suitable production schedule has been suggested taking into consideration certain important constraints imposed by the Indian environment.

摘要:

The manufacturing manager is faced with the responsibility to effectively manage the productivity improvement of his production system. Critical to this challenge is the ability to measure the productivity of the various controllable resources. A multiple input productivity measurement model using data available within the manufacturing data base is presented which will perform absolute and trend analysis for the individual input factors along with the aggregate of the total system.

摘要:

The typical assembly line is serial with no paralleling of work elements and work stations allowed. The series assumption restricts the least cycle time to be the maximum work element time, thus limiting the production rate.

摘要:

The paper determines the sequence of set-ups and quantity to produce in each setup if two products are to be produced on a single facility, considering the effects of learning and forgetting. The cost expression which is to be minimized, consists of three factors: set-up cost, carrying cost and the cost of idle facility. A solution procedure is developed and the analysis is extended for then-product system.

摘要:

Micro-productivity measurement models have been proposed for calculating, partial (single factor) or aggregate (total factor), productivity indexes in industrial environments. In this paper, the models are extended to cover project productivity measurement, by considering project duration as a distinct input factor in addition to the other physical inputs. The duration effect is measured by comparing the future value, at completion, of all invested inputs.
