Modelling and analysis of manufacturing plant for avanti manufacturing consultants

1)Detailed analysis of the approaches, given the resources WFMC currently possess and the demand forecasts predicted for 2017 has been carried out

2)Scheduling Is done using Johnson’s algorithm with objectives like maximizing average machine utilizations, minimizing the flow of parts between groups so as to reduce material handling and minimizing setup time are also considered.

2)Designing of facility layout has been done using Group technology to acheive feasible production rates without letting the throughput times go beyond limits,minimizing queue length.

3)The design has been made in a way that the demand is at least met by the production rate for each part.

6)Queueing analysis is conducted next to analyze the performance of the system, which is followed by cost analysis and facility layout.

7)Proposed a model that would bring drastic reduction in machines required reducing annual cost by 30%.

8)Suggested a Mitigation technique using conveyer belt that would save $1.5 million anually that are spent on Labor.
