This document discusses improving the plant layout of ANSA Technologies using the Pugh matrix approach. It begins by introducing the importance of efficient plant layout design. It then describes the current plant layout and generates three proposed layout concepts (A, B, C). String diagrams, flow charts, and material flow diagrams are created for the current and proposed layouts. Nine criteria for evaluation are identified. The concepts are then evaluated against each other using a Pugh matrix to systematically select the most efficient option.

Application of value stream mapping tool to reduce wastes in bearing industryijmech
In today’s highly competitive business environment, companies require improvement in Production Lead
Times, costs and customer service levels to survive. Because of this, companies have become more
customers focused. The result is that companies have been putting in significant effort to improve their
efficiency.
This paper present the practical application of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) tool implement in a bearing
industry. A value stream is an assortment of all actions (value added as well as non-value added) that are
required to bring a product through the essential flows, starting with raw material and ending with the
customer. For drawing current state value stream mapping, all relevant data has been collected and analyzed. Then analysis of current state map has been done for identifying non-value adding activities, in
other words waste and suggestions on how to remove or reduce different wastes. From the results achieved
by current VSM, it was observable that the two processes Annealing and CNC Machining have higher cycle
time and WIP. In order to increase their capacity, their cycle should be reduced.
By implementing some lean principles and changes in the production line, the future state map was created and the reduction the different types of wastes reduced. The total processing time was reduced from 409
seconds to 344 seconds.

Implementation of a Cellular Manufacturing Tool for Minimization of Non Value...IJERA Editor
The purpose of this study is to develop a plan for reducing lead-times and increasing profit of Centre bolt product by using value stream mapping. The Centre bolt product manufacturer is inefficient because it produces products in large batch quantities and has poor product flow as operations being departmentalized and departments are very far away from each other due to this increase in lead-times could cause a loss in the market share to its competitors. The Centre bolt product manufacturer must reduce its lead-times in order to remain competitive and continue its growth by providing quality products in a timely manner. A study will be carried out using value stream mapping to determine areas of potential improvement on the plant floor. A current state map will be developed and analyzed the areas that have potential for improvement. A future state map will then be created to suggest ways to reduce lead-times and increase profit. The map will include lean manufacturing methods to reduce wastes in the system; increasing profit and reducing lead-times. Current state and future state of manufacturing of a firm are compared and witnessed: 50 percent reduction in lead time, 4 percent reduction in processing time, 58.5 percent reduction in WIP and 22 percent reduction in manpower required to perform same amount of work.

Balancing the line by using heuristic method based on cpm in salbp –a case studyeSAT Journals
Abstract
In mass production systems, line balancing plays a great role, but this is not easy even if it is a simple straight line. So, in order to
solve these problems Heuristic methods are very much desirable. It is also found that Heuristic methods play a great role in the
formation of metaheuristic methods.Therefore it is very much important to use more efficient heuristic methods. In this research
paper we presents a heuristic method that is based on critical path method for simple assembly line balancing. This research is
mainly concerned with objectives of minimizing the number of workstations, improvement of smoothness index, mean absolute
deviation (MAD) and increasing line efficiency.
Keywords-Heuristic methods,Assembly line balancing problem, Critical path method, Simple assembly line balancing.
Improving Supply Chain Activity using Simulationijsrd.com
The discovery through computational modeling and simulation has become the third pillar of science, alongside theory and experimentation. As computational power increases, simulation has gained in importance and has become a major research area, where highly parallel computation is utilized. In this dissertation, we have performed the simulation by selecting a single machine which is involved in manufacturing the highest number of products. Data are collected for all the processes involved in the manufacturing processes and an input modelling analysis is been done for the data collected. After the analysis is completed, a simulation model is constructed using ARENA which involved all the manufacturing process using the simulation tools. With the help of the simulation tools we will be able to identify activities causing the bottlenecks and delays in the entire manufacturing processes. Similarly, this simulation can be carried out for each and every machine of the company so that we can identify the bottlenecks and delays. As a result, the bottlenecks and delays can be reduced and the entire supply chain can be improved. This paper aims at combining supply chain management and simulation - to give an overview of both areas and shows how supply chain management can profit from simulation and also to identify the delays and bottlenecks in the overall manufacturing process. Lastly, a sample of how a supply chain can be optimized, in the simulation development suite ARENA.

Development of new products is extremely essential for the success and smooth running of every industry. Companies have to constantly inject innovations and design efforts to make the design processes easy and to attract consumers in a constantly in a evolving and highly competitive market with best quality . Keeping ahead of the competition by bringing new and exciting products to market fast, and at the necessary level of quality, presents a major engineering challenge. A new casting bracket in place of old stamping brackets in snowmobile chassis development process is described, which introduces advanced FEM and Optimization technology into the concept development phase. Detailed predictions of interacting parts in a mechanism assembly are made possible through use of value engineering based process and material selection and advanced simulation technology. Design optimization is then employed using the modeling as a virtual testing ground for design variants. The approach provides clear design direction and helps to improve performance and reduce the unnecessary welding efforts of bracket manufacturing. Design is an intelligent activity that begins with design requirements and ends with a product description. Using Altair Optistruct was able to significantly reduce design time by sub modeling with structural optimization. The resultant casting bracket design showed superior performance characteristics. And finely the manufacturer had to put less efforts in stamping and part welding , which reduced the manufacturing time and cost also.
Design and fabrication of modular fixture for cmm inspectioneSAT Journals
Abstract This paper is on design and fabrication of modular fixture setup relative to inspection on co-ordinate Measuring Machine proposed and planned to increase the utilization of Co-ordinate Measuring Machine with respect to inspection activity by reducing setup time. The modular fixture design will hold component of different configuration, size and shape without much efforts to locate, align and clamp the components on the fixture. The modular fixture will ensure that even though the component is of different configuration will have one time design and setup configuration which will be standardized by assembly of fixture and then on fixture setup time will be less than a minute on the machine that to only if fixture is disturbed / removed from the Co-ordinate Measuring Machine table. Modular fixture will reduce setup time, hence increase opportunity to utilize the machine for useful value adding inspection purpose rather than setup activity which is noted to be non value adding activity. Along with design of modular fixture standardized method of component setup strategy is provided as work instructions to ensure components are mounted same way each time and every time whenever it is in use irrespective of time and resource.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
