Abstract
The needs of world-wide industry today requires modification of manufacturing operations to assure: (1) a better and faster response to customers’ requirements; (2) ever higher quality for products; and (3) increased flexibility and faster response in the introduction of new products and in responding to the needs of the marketplace. At this same time industry faces further requirements to increase their overall company earnings while: (1) decreasing the environmental impact of their factory’s operations; (2) increasing the plant personnel and environmental safety of their operations; and (3) improving plant personnel working conditions and job satisfaction.
