Getting the Most from Manufacturing Cells: Through Focused Factory Engineering
Overview In traditional factories, the equipment is arranged with similar machines located together, i.e., all of the lathes are in one line, all of the mills are in another line, the welders are in the weld shop and the assembly line is over in the assembly building. With cellular manufacturing, all of the equipment to make a complete part is together. A cellular manufacturing process is designed to efficiently make a specific part or a family of parts. A typical manufacturing cell could contain the raw material, the band saw to cut the raw material, the lathe to machine it and an assembly/inspection bench.
