“…Group Technology (GT) methods' main benefit lies in the simplification, standardization, and harmonization of processes and in transferring these well-proven practices of mass production to HMLV production [3]. Commonalities of features of products, parts, processes, technologies, and equipment can all be considered when defining product families.…”

In a high-mix and low-volume (HMLV) manufacturing environment where demand fluctuation is the rule rather than the exception, daily production management in face of conflicting key performance indicators such as high delivery precision, short lead time, and maximal resource utilization is a most challenging task. This situation may even be hampered by unreliable supplier performance. This paper presents a generic decision support workflow, which first identifies the most critical external and internal factors which have a serious impact on delivery performance. Next, it suggests a method which combines traditional manufacturing system simulation with advanced machine learning techniques to support the improved daily routine lot-sizing and production scheduling activities in a HMLV company. Argumentation is motivated and illustrated by a detailed industrial case study.

Manufacturing cell formation and its balance in just-in-time (JIT) type production environments have usually been studied separately in the literature. This practice is unrealistic since both problems interact and affect each other when the cells are operating. This chapter proposes a methodology to design multiple manufacturing cells and simultaneously balance their workload. The cells considered are U-shaped and process mixed models of product families. A nonlinear integer programming mathematical model is proposed, which integrates cell formation and their balancing, considering various production factors. For illustration, the method is applied to the redesign of a rack manufacturing process.

“…La integración se da con diferentes estrategias o enfoques de planeación tal como en [10] donde se realiza la formación de células en el contexto de la planeación ajustada o Lean Manufacturing o en [11] que se plantea desde un enfoque sistemático o en [12] que se plantea desde un enfoque práctico. Por otro lado, la integración de la formación de células con distribución de planta y la planificación de la producción se puede ver en [13].…”

En mercados competitivos la flexibilidad es una exigencia clave para competir, la tecnología de grupos permite obtener esta flexibilidad a bajo costo, debido a que combina las ventajas de la producción en masa con las ventajas de la producción por talleres. En tal sentido este artículo tiene como objetivo proponer una metodología que integre los planes de: configuración de planta, capacidad y producción valorando múltiples criterios para seleccionar las alternativas de agrupación con mejores resultados. Para ello se proponen realizar 5 etapas, creación de familias de productos, configuración de planta, capacidad y producción, estimación de medidas de desempeño y proceso de análisis jerárquico. Como resultado, se logra una metodología consistente respecto a la sensibilidad de la evaluación AHP de las medidas de desempeño, las variaciones individuales en los criterios de las configuraciones candidatas no modifican la decisión encontrada (configuración a seleccionar). La principal conclusión es, se puede abordar el problema de la formación de células considerando un enfoque en el que se descompone el problema en sub problemas menos complejos y así incluir al tiempo múltiples criterios de agrupación orientados al entorno donde sea aplicada la metodología.
