COMPUTER AIDED PROCESS PLANNING AND CONTROL AND
COMPUTER MONITORING.
1. Production Planning and control
Production planning and control
may be defined as the direction as the direction and
coordination of a firm’s material and physical facilities towards the
attainment of pre specified
Production of goods, with production efficiency. 2. Production planning
§ Deciding
which products to make, how many of each, and when they should be completed.
§ Planning
the manpower and equipment resources needed to accomplish the production plan.
§ Scheduling
the production and delivery of the parts and products ;
3. Production control
Production control is concerned
with determining whether the necessary resources to implement the production
plan have been provided or not.
4. Activities
of production control.
§ Shop
floor control;
§ Inventory
control;
§ Manufacturing
resource planning (MRP II); and
§ Just-in-time
manufacturing systems.
5. MRP -
Function of MRP
It is a planning technique. It
translates the master production schedule (MPS) of end products into a detailed
schedule for the raw materials and parts used in those end products.
6. BOM
The bill of materials (BOM)
designates what itemsand how many of each are used to make up a specified final
product.
7. Benefits of MRP
The
benefits of implementing MRP system are:
§ Reduced
inventory levels.
§ Better
Production scheduling
§ Reduced
production lead time.
§ Better
machine utilization.
§ Improved
product quality.
8. Material
requirements planning (MRP)
It is a production planning and inventory control system used to manage manufacturing processes. Most MRP systems are software-based, while it is possible to conduct MRP by hand as well.
An MRP system is intended to simultaneously meet three
objectives:
·
Ensure materials are available for production and products
are available for delivery to customers.
·
Maintain the lowest possible material and product
levels in store
·
Plan manufacturing activities, delivery schedules
and purchasing activities.
9. Agile
manufacturing
It is a term applied to an organization that has
created the processes, tools, and training to enable it to respond quickly to
customer needs and market changes while still controlling costs and quality.
10. Inventory Control
It is the supervision of supply, storage and
accessibility of items in order to ensure an adequate supply without excessive
oversupply. It can also be referred as internal control - an accounting
procedure or system designed to promote efficiency or assure the implementation
of a policy or safeguard assets or avoid fraud and error etc.
11.Inventory control may refer to:
·
In economics, the inventory control problem, which
aims to reduce overhead cost without hurting sales
·
In the field of loss prevention, systems designed
to introduce technical barriers to shoplifting
12.Inventory
Inventory or stock refers to the goods and materials that a business holds for the ultimate purpose of resale (or repair).
Inventory management is a science
primarily about specifying the shape and percentage of stocked goods. It is
required at different locations within a facility or within many locations of a
supply network to precede the regular and planned course of production and
stock of materials.
13.Lean manufacturing,
Lean manufacturing, Lean Enterprise, or lean production, often
simply, "lean", is a production philosophy that considers the
expenditure of resources in any aspect other than the direct creation of value for the end customer to be wasteful, and
thus a target for elimination. Working from the perspective of the client who
consumes a product or service, "value" is any action or process that
a customer would be willing to pay for.
Basically, lean manufacturing
technique consists of four steps. First step is to realize that there are wastes
in the system to be removed. Although this seems like a crazy idea, this is the
step which creates the requirement for the movement towards lean manufacturing.
Many organizations do not realize that they have tons of hidden wastes with
them. Therefore they do not have the requirement to remove them from the
system. So they will have their problems forever and they will try to find
solutions for these problems forever.
14.Direct digital control (DDC)
It is the automated control of a condition or
process by a digital device (computer).
A very early example of a DDC
system meeting the above requirements was completed by the Australian business
Midac in 1981-1982 using R-Tec Australian designed hardware.
15.Inventory Management;
Inventory management is a science
primarily about specifying the shape and percentage of stocked goods. It is
required at different locations within a facility or within many locations of a
supply network to precede the regular and planned course of production and
stock of materials.
