Sinha R. K., Hollier R. K., A review of production control in cellular manufacture, International Journal of Production Research Sep/Oct 84, Vol. 22 issue 5, p773, 17p. Retrieved from: http://search.ebscohost.com.ezproxy.liberty.edu:2048/login.aspx?direct=true&db=bth&AN=5783704&site=ehost-live&scope=site In this article the authors discuss some of the most important and significant steps that production control needs to follow when it comes to scheduling in cellular manufacturing. The authors point out that it’s important to have a clear understanding of the part number families in order to balance out the cell with the machines and man power needed to run the cell efficiency. They point out that running in a batch mode helps control the work in process and achieve a desirable flow through the cell. They go on to say that scheduling the cell is complex and it’s important that the cell layout is such that the cell can maintain the level of work in process.

The authors go on to discuss the process on how a cellular manufacturing cell is set up based on part number families. The authors go on to discuss the studies that have been conducted on the layout and the production process. They also point
out that with the modern tech knowledge of the internet that many companies overseas and at home are using the resources available to gather information that is helpful in cellular manufacturing.

In this journal article the author’s discuss how companies are making the switch to cellular manufacturing in order to improve their manufacturing process and become more competitive. They point out the benefits that come with cellular manufacturing such as reducing lead times, inventory and cost. They discuss how the associates in the cell become a valuable asset to the process and the quality improvement of the product. They go on to point out that some companies do encounter problems with cellular manufacturing due to the cell design and the process. The go on to say that involvement by all is important when implementing cellular manufacturing.
