CELLULAR MANUFACTURING
• It is an application of group technology in manufacturing in which all or a portion of a firm’s manufacturing system has been converted into cells

CELL FORMATION APPROACHES
Machine - Component Group Analysis:
Machine - Component Group Analysis is based on production flow analysis
![Page 5: Cellular manufacturing and group technology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042513/54bca3e84a795958278b45bc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Production flow analysis involves four stages:
Stage 1: Machine classification.
Machines are classified on the basis of operations that can be performed on them. A machine type number is assigned to machines capable of performing similar operations.

Stage 2: Checking parts list and production route information.
For each part, information on the operations to be undertaken and the machines required to perform each of these operations is checked thoroughly.

Stage 3: Factory flow analysis.
This involves a micro-level examination of flow of components through machines. This, in turn, allows the problem to be decomposed into a number of machine-component groups.

Stage 4: Machine-component group analysis.
An intuitive manual method is suggested to manipulate the matrix to form cells. However, as the problem size becomes large, the manual approach does not work. Therefore, there is a need to develop analytical approaches to handle large problems systematically.

Benefits of Cellular Manufacturing
1. Flow times are reduced2. Saves process time3. Reduction in inventories4. Rush orders can be produced without much
problems5. Employees feel empowered & derive job
satisfaction6. Multiple operations get done in a single cell
![Page 12: Cellular manufacturing and group technology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042513/54bca3e84a795958278b45bc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Limitations of Cellular Manufacturing
1. Issues like placement of bottleneck machines are need to be addressed during cell formation
2. Machines may require their own individual stocks of materials
3. Inadequacies in employee education, training & involvement could come in the way of proper implementation
![Page 13: Cellular manufacturing and group technology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042513/54bca3e84a795958278b45bc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
GROUP TECHNOLOGY
Group technology (GT) is a philosophy that works in three different ways:
1. By performing similar activities together
2. By standardizing similar tasks3. By efficiently storing and retrieving
information about recurring problems
![Page 14: Cellular manufacturing and group technology](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042513/54bca3e84a795958278b45bc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Group Technology
• Group technology emphasizes on part families based on similarities in design attributes and manufacturing, therefore GT contributes to the integration of CAD (Computer Aided Design) and CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing)
• The group of similar parts is known as part family and the group of machineries used to process an individual part family is known as machine cell

Group technology is a management strategy to help eliminate waste caused by duplication of effort.
