Production planning and control in mass production

Production planning and control in mass production Mass production Only one type of product or maximum 2 or 3 type of products are manufactured in large quantities and much emphasis is not given to retail consumer orders. Standardization of products, processes, materials, machines, uninterrupted flow of materials are the main characteristics of this system. Example: - petrochemical industry, cement industry, steel industry, sugar industry, cigarette industry etc. Features of mass production system o It includes manufacturing of high volume standardized products. o There is a smooth flow material from one work station to another workstation. o Production time of production unit as a whole is short (i.e. because of specialization principle). o Closely spaced work station reduce material handling. o Production planning and control is simple. o Work in progress inventory is less. Production planning and control is possible under mass production only with the help of line balan
