Companies need to know how much time it takes to manufacture goods. Otherwise, they would have no idea if they are satisfying demands, any potential bottlenecks in the manufacturing process, and more. To do this, they take their productionthroughput. Throughput is the quantity of product a comp...
Value Stream Mapping to Reduce Lead Time and Improve Throughput Time in a Manufacturing Organization: A ReviewSalunkhe, R. T.Shinge, A. R.IUP Journal of Operations Management
The GT-based workcell is becoming an important component of a just-in-time (JIT) strategy to gain increased productivity and proper response to customers in small-to-medium lot size manufacturing operations. Considering the four factors of machines in series, finite buffers between machines, piece...
More importantly, we lack an understanding of which practices are vital in achieving throughput time reductions and what management actions are critical to achieve high levels of these practices. This paper presents a framework for understanding time-based manufacturing 展开 ...

and clinical testing. This work is usually carried out by the Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) department of a pharmaceutical company. Since there are usually many parameters and factors that can be varied when synthesizing a molecule, this process results in an enormous amount of ...
We present a framework for managing vital customer priorities in job-shop manufacturing environments. We introduce the notion of attaining near-perfect on-time delivery service to a small portion of the firm's customers who contribute to a substantial portion of its sales revenue and profits. Conse...
Throughput time refers to the total amount of time that it takes to run a particular process in its entirety from start to finish. For example, a manufacturer can measure how long it takes to produce a product, from initial customer order to sourcing raw materials to manufacturing to sale. ...
