Synopsis

A hands-on guide to implementing multi-cell manufacturing systemson a large scale.

Cellular manufacturing (CM) is the grouping of similar products formanufacture in discrete multi-machine cells. It has been proven toyield faster production cycles, lower in-process inventory levels,and enhanced product quality.

Pioneered on a large scale by Russian, British, and Germanmanufacturers, interest in CM methods has grown steadily over thepast decade. However, there continues to be a dearth of practicalguides for industrial engineers and production managers interestedin implementing CM techniques in their plants. Bringing togethercontributions by an international team of CM experts, the Handbookof Cellular Manufacturing Systems bridges this gap in theengineering literature. With the help of numerous in-depth casestudies drawn from a wide range of industries, the Handbook covers:
* History and basic principles of cellular manufacturing.
* Methods for cell formation, layout, and scheduling of largemanufacturing systems.
* Setup time reduction techniques.
* Quality control in CM.
* Benchmarking and performance evaluation of cells.
* Financial costs and benefits of CM versus traditional approaches.
* Human resources and team development issues in CM.
* Computer-aided methods and tools for planning, designing,implementing, and managing cells in manufacturing plants.

The Handbook of Cellular Manufacturing Systems is an indispensableresource for industrial engineers and production managersinterested in implementing this exciting new alternative toconventional manufacturing system configurations.
