Repetitive Manufacturing
Repetitive manufacturing is dedicated to a single product or a small range of products, where
products are passed through the same sequence of operations.
Which are primary activities in manufacturing planning and control?
Production planning and inventory management
Which of the following is a framework for organizing, defining, and standardizing the business
processes necessary to effectively plan and control an organization?
Enterprise resources planning
An organization is pursuing a product differentiation strategy. Which is a production environment that
could accommodate this strategy while also minimizing related inventories of components and/or
finished goods?
Postponement, a subtype of an assemble-to-order production environment, is a product design or
supply chain strategy that deliberately delays final differentiation (assembly, production, packaging,
tagging, etc.) until the latest possible time in the process. This shifts product differentiation closer to
the consumer to reduce the anticipatory risk, eliminating excess inventory in the form of finished
goods in the supply chain.
In a functional layout,
each work center must be flexible.
Product layout / In a product-based layout,
Capital costs generally are higher for a product layout / there is little build-up of work-in-process
(WIP) inventory.
Manufacturing lead time represents the:
total time required to manufacture an item, exclusive of lower-level purchasing lead time.
A company has developed a new, innovative product that is taking over the market. Early sales
consume everything the company can produce, but things have started to slow down. Both
production and sales continue to grow. What are the typical challenges that would be expected in this
growth phase of the product's life?
Quality and delivery
Which is an advantage of work cells?
Reduced material movement
How is six sigma best defined?
A methodology that furnishes tools to decrease process variation and improve product quality
The usually small-scale, incremental focus of continuous improvement allows for which of the
following?
, Minimal disruption to overall functions and duties
Which is an example of a special cause as opposed to a common cause of a variation in a process?
Use of expired materials
Which of the following terms is associated with the systematic use of techniques that identify a
required function, establish a value for that function, and finally provide that function at the lowest
overall cost?
Value analysis
In quality function deployment (QFD), what is typically the next step once the voice-of-the-customer
requirements are known?
Translate the wants into engineering specifications through a series of well-defined steps.
Which is the best way listed to improve quality at the source for manufactured parts?
Reducing the variation in manufacturing process
Which correctly identifies the following examples of costs as internal failure (I), external failure (E),
appraisal costs (A), and prevention costs (P)?
Scrap = I; product recalls and loss of customers = E; in-line inspections = A; machine maintenance and
operator training = P
Which of the following is a combined approach for process improvement and problem solving based
on reducing non-value-added activities, decreasing process variation, and improving product quality?
Lean six sigma
House of quality (HOQ)
1.Identification of customer attributes
2.Identification of supporting technical features
3.Correlation of customer attributes with supporting technical features
4.Assigning priorities to customer requirements and technical features
5.Evaluation of competitive stances and products
6.Identification of technical features to be used in the final design
Which system is unique in its focus on the reduction of defects by reducing variation?
Six sigma
Which is recorded in control charts?
Range of each set of samples taken over time. Control charts provide information on the average and
range of each set of samples taken over time. However, they do not record the results of inspections,
as inspections occur on the final product, while statistical process control occurs at the work center
level.
Involving the customer in the design of a product is part of which methodology?
Quality function deployment (QFD) is a methodology to ensure that all the major requirements of the
customer are identified and met or exceeded.
