Group Technology (GT) is a manufacturing technique in which the parts having similarities in___ are grouped in a part family.

• geometry

• manufacturing process

• geometry or manufacturing process

• material or manufacturing process

Part family produced by a machine cell is known as_____

• Holonic manufacturing

• Group manufacturing

• Cellular manufacturing

• Flexible manufacturing

_____is the set of all actions required to produce a product including, material, product design and development in the Lean Principle.

• Identify value

• Identify value stream

• Make the value stream flow

• Identify flow

-workstation

-computer control

-automated material handling

Above elements are referred to:

• Cellular manufacturing

• Hollonic manufacturing

• Flexible manufacturing

• Automated manufacturing

1. 1. Establish pull 2. Identify stream 3. Identify stream flow 4. Identify value 5. Achieve perfection

2. State the correct flow in Lean Manufacturing

• 1-2-3-4-5

• 2-3-4-1-5

• 1-4-2-3-5

• 4-2-3-1-5

The following are the disadvantages of Flexible Manufacturing except,

• Equipment cost are higher

• Not suitable for very low or very high production rates

• Routing flexibility

• Computer integration requires more highly trained operating equipment
