  2. Batch production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batch_production

    The batch production method is also used so any temporary changes or modifications can be made to the product if necessary during the manufacturing process. [3] For example, if a product needed a sudden change in material or details changed, it can be done in between batches.

  3. Cellular manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_manufacturing

    Production of the five sub-assembly cells consists exclusively of certain analyzer sub-units. The parts and materials are located in the cells... Material control between the cells is based on the pull system and actual demand. In the analyzer cells there is a buffer consisting of two pieces for each (roughly 25 different) sub-unit.

  4. Quick response manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_Response_Manufacturing

    Common efficiency measures encourage production of parts in large batch sizes. From the QRM perspective, large batch sizes lead to long waiting times, high WIP and inventory, and ultimately long lead times. Long lead times in turn result in multiple forms of waste and increased cost as described above.

  5. Chemical reactor materials selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reactor_materials...

    Chemical reactor materials selection is an important aspect in the design of a chemical reactor. There are four main groups of chemical reactors - CSTR, PFR, semi-batch, and catalytic - with variations on each. Depending on the nature of the chemicals involved in the reaction, as well as the operating conditions (e.g. temperature and pressure ...

  6. Glass production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_production

    Batch processing is one of the initial steps of the glass-making process. The batch house simply houses the raw materials in large silos (fed by truck or railcar), and holds anywhere from 1–5 days of material. Some batch systems include material processing such as raw material screening/sieve, drying, or pre-heating (i.e. cullet). Whether ...

  7. Methods of production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_production

    Contrary to job production, the method Boutique Manufacturing is suitable for the production of very small to small batches, i.e. orders of a few units up to several dozens of similar or equal goods. The workflow organization of a Boutique Manufacturing entity can be a mixture of both jobbing and batch production but involves higher ...

  8. Scheduling (production processes) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(production...

    Batch production scheduling is the practice of planning and scheduling of batch manufacturing processes. Although scheduling may apply to traditionally continuous processes such as refining, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] it is especially important for batch processes such as those for pharmaceutical active ingredients, biotechnology processes and many specialty ...

  9. Concrete plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_plant

    A typical non-North American design [clarification needed] of concrete plant. Longer conveyors and screw-fed cementitious materials slow down production significantly. A concrete plant, also known as a batch plant or batching plant or a concrete batching plant, is equipment that combines various ingredients to form concrete.
