Abstract
In Chap. 5 we have developed the concept of multi-product, also called mixed-product, manufacturing cell, to maximize cell utilization and to increase at the same time the flexibility of a self-controlled manufacturing unit enouncing the following theorems:
-
Theorem of Generalized Throughput
-
Theorem of Lean Batch Sizing
-
Theorem of Cell Product Congruency
-
Theorem of Vulnerability of Mono-product Cell.
