45
are those that refer to the making of products by hand or with machinery
MANUFACTURING PROCESSES
46
is one whose production is based on sales orders for variety of small lots
JOB SHOP
47
are very useful components of the entire production effort, since they manufacture products in small lots that are needed by, but cannot be produced economically by many companies
JOB SHOP
48
produce custom products, in general
JOB SHOP
49
may be manufactured within a short notice
PRODUCTS
50
the type of layout used by job shops where similar machines are grouped together
PROCESS LAYOUT
51
are layer intensive and machines are frequently idle
JOB SHOP
52
is where lots of generally own designed products are manufactured
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
53
there is flexibility to produce either low or high volumes
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
54
not all procedures are performed on all products
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
55
the type of equipment used are mostly for general purpose
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
56
the process layout is used
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
57
the operation is labor intensive, although there is less machine idleness
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
58
the size of operation is generally medium-sized
BATCH FLOW PROCESS
59
PROCESS FLOW DIAGRAM FOR A JOB SHOP

60
EXAMPLE OF FACTORIES USING THE LARGE BATCH FLOW
Wineries Scrap-metal reduction plants Road-repair contractors
61
refers to the production layout arranged in a sequence to accommodate processing of large volume of standardize products or services
ASSEMBLY LINE
62
an assembly line refers to the production layout arranged in a sequence to accommodate processing of large volume of standardize products or services
WORKER-PACED ASSEMBLY LINE
63
EXAMPLES OF WORKER PACED ASSEMBLY LINES
Food marts like McDonalds and Shakeys
64
WORKER-PACED ASSEMBLY LINE is characterized by
1. Products manufactured are mostly standardized 2. There is a clear process pattern 3. Specialized equipment is used 4. The size of operation is variable 5 The process is worker-paced 6. The type of layout used is the line flow 7. Labor is still big cost problem
65
this type of production process produces mostly standard products with machines playing a significant role
MACHINE-PACED ASSEMBLY LINE
66
OTHER FEATURE OF MACHINE-PACED ASSEMBLY LINE
1. The process is of clear, rigid pattern 2. Specialized type of equipment is used 3. The line flow layout is used 4. Capital equipment is a bigger cost item than labor 5. Operation is large 6. The process is machine-paced
67
EXAMPLE OF MACHINE PACED ASSEMBLY LINE
auto-mobile manufacturers like General motors and Ford motors
68
is characterized by " the rapid rate at which items move through the system"
CONTINUOUS FLOW PROCESSING
69
this processing method is very appropriate for producing highly standardized products like calculator, typewriters, automobiles, televisions, cellular phones, etc.
CONTINUOUS FLOW PROCESSING
70
OTHER CHARACTERISTICS OF CONTINUOUS FLOW PROCESSING
1. There is economy of scale in production, resulting to low per unit cost per production 2. The process is clear and very rigid 3. Specialized equipment are used 4. The line flow layout is used 5. Operations are highly capital intensive 6. The size of operation is very large 7. Processing is fast
71
BODY ASSEMBLY

75
PAINT SHOP
-primer(ELPO BATH) -finish coat
76
MISCELLANEOUS CHASSIS OPERATIONS

77
MOTOR CRADLE LINE
-dressing of basic motor with various parts, hoses, and harnesses -transmission, fan -front axle and brakes -mating of motors with its cradle -exhaust system, rear wheel brake lines
78
this method of processing is a combination of the batch and the continuous flow
BATCH/ CONTINUOUS FLOW HYBRID
79
DISTINCT LAYOUTS
-one for batch -one for continuous flow
80
COMPANIES USING THE BATCH/ CONTINUOUS FLOW HYBRID
-breweries -gelatin producers and -tobacco manufacturers
81
are those that refer to the provision of services to persons by hand or by machinery
SERVICE PROCESSES
82
offers a limited mix of services which results to some economies of scale in operations
SERVICE FACTORY
83
this also affords the company to complete in terms of price and speed of producing the service
SERVICE FACTORY
84
preferred by the service factory that is rigid pattern of line flow processing
PROCESS LAYOUT
85
EXAMPLES OF SERVICE FACTORIES
McDonalds and Shakeys
86
provides a diverse mix of services
SERVICE SHOP
87
the layout used are those for job shops or fixed position and are adaptable to various requirements
SERVICE SHOP
88
abound throughout the Philippines
SERVICE SHOPs
89
SERVICES PROVIDED BY SERVICE SHOPS
- car engine tune-up -wheel balancing - wheel alignment - change oil, etc.
90
provides services to a large number of people simultaneously
MASS SERVICE COMPANY
91
a unique processing method is therefore, necessary to satisfy this requirement. to be able to serve many people, mass service companies offer limited mix of services
MASS SERVICE
92
the process layout used is typically fixed position where customers move through the layout
MASS SERVICE
93
these are companies that provide specialized services to other firms or individuals
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
94
EXAMPLE OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
1. engineering or management consulting services which help in improving the plant layout or the efficiency of a company 2. design services which supply designs for a physical plant, products, and promotion materials 3. advertising agencies which help promote a firm's products 4. Accounting services 5. Legal services 6. Data processing services 7. health services
95
offer a diverse mix of services. there is a lower utilization of capital equipment compared to the services factory and the service shop
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE FIRMS
96
the process pattern used is very loose. the process layout used is identical to the job shop
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE FIRMS
97
are oftentimes , faced with delivery problems brought about by nonuniform demand
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE FIRMS
98
STRATEGIES THAT MAY BE USED IN PROFESSIONAL SERVICE FIRMS
1. the use of staggered work-shift schedules 2. the hiring of part -time staff 3. providing the customers with opportunity to select the level of service 4. installing auxiliary capacity or hiring subcontractors 5. using multiskilled floating staff 6. installing customers self-service
