Cellular manufacturing, an application of group technology, is a stepping stone to achieve world class manufacturing status. It has emerged as an important technique to cope up with fast changing industrial demands for the application of newer manufacturing systems. This comprehensive and well written text deals with all facets of cellular manufacturing right from introduction to application in a chronological order. The book first introduces cell formation techniques, followed by elimination of exceptional components, evaluation of solutions, cell characteristics, and production control issues like scheduling; line balancing and inventory control. Finally it discusses about the application of cellular manufacturing in a large public sector.The text is supported by numerous figures, tables and examples, and also furnishes simple algorithms for complex methods. Primarily intended for the postgraduate students of mechanical engineering and production engineering with specialization in manufacturing systems/group technology, it will also be useful for the researchers, scientists and professionals as a reference book.
This comprehensive introduction to basic manufacturing processes is ideal for both degree and diploma courses in engineering. With several pedagogical features, the text makes the topics understandable and appealing for students. The book first introduces the concepts of engineering materials and their properties, measurement and quality in manufacturing and allied activities before dwelling upon the details of different manufacturing processes such as machining, casting, metal forming, powder metallurgy and joining. To keep pace with the latest advancements in technology, use of non-conventional resources, applications of computers, and use of robots in manufacturing are also discussed in considerable detail. The text also provides a thorough treatment of topics on economy and management of production.
A successful Operations Management (OM) requires a totality perspective: it has to have a cross-functional approach, involving all operations functions, such as Engineering, Human Resource Management (HRM), Purchasing, Manufacturing, Logistics, Accounting, Finance, and Marketing. This book comprehensively delves on all components of Operations Management, and pans out practical approaches for their effective and efficient handling. The book shows how Operations Management integrates the Top management, i.e. strategic level; Middle management, i.e. tactical level; and Functional management, i.e. operational slevel functions, to complement each other. Divided into 11 sections containing 28 cha...
