23. Improving Layouts by Moving to the Work Cell Concept

25. Work Cell Advantages Inventory Floor space Direct labor costs Equipment utilization Employee participation Quality

26. Work Cell Floor Plan Office Tool Room Work Cell Saws Drills

28. Work Cells, etc. Work Cell A temporary assembly-line-oriented arrangement of machines and personnel in what is ordinarily a process-oriented facility Example: job shop with rearranged machinery and personnel to produce 30 unique control panels Focused Work Center A permanent assembly-line-oriented arrangement of machines and personnel in what is ordinarily a process-oriented facility Example: manufacturing of pipe brackets at a shipyard Focused Factory A permanent facility to produce a product or component in a product-oriented facility Example: a plant to produce window mechanisms for automobiles

50. Repetitive Layout 1 3 2 4 5 Work Office Belt Conveyor Work Station Note: 5 tasks or operations; 3 work stations Work Station Station

55. Assembly Line Balancing Equations Cycle time = Production time available Demand per day Minimum number of work stations  Task times Cycle time Efficiency = =  Task times * (Cycle time) (Actual number of work stations)
