Logistics engineering as a discipline is a very important aspect of systems engineering that also includes reliability engineering. It is the science and process whereby reliability, maintainability, and availability are designed into products or systems. It includes the supply and physical distribution considerations above as well as more ...
There is a difference between discrete manufacturing and process manufacturing in terms of flow patterns. An example given is that discrete manufacturing follows an "A" type process and process manufacturing follows a “V” type process. [5] In the production cycle, a work order or process order [6] is issued to make the product in bulk ...
The PPAP process is designed to demonstrate that a supplier has developed their design and production process to meet the client's requirements, minimizing the risk of failure by effective use of APQP. Requests for part approval must therefore be supported in official PPAP format and with documented results when needed.
Manufacturing engineers develop and create physical artifacts, production processes, and technology. It is a very broad area which includes the design and development of products. Manufacturing engineering is considered to be a sub-discipline of industrial engineering/systems engineering and has very strong overlaps with mechanical engineering ...
Scheduling and choosing the actual work to be started in the manufacturing facility" [1] Setting up and delivering production orders to production facilities. [5] In order to develop production plans, the production planner or production planning department needs to work closely together with the marketing department and sales department.
Discrete manufacturing is the production of items that are distinct from one another. Examples of discrete manufacturing products are automobiles , furniture , smartphones , and airplanes . [ 1 ] The resulting products are easily identifiable and differ greatly from process manufacturing where the products are undifferentiated, for example oil ...

A first possible distinction in production systems (technological classification) is between continuous process production and discrete part production (manufacturing). Process production means that the product undergoes physical-chemical transformations and lacks assembly operations, and therefore the original raw materials cannot easily be ...
