Abstract

Group technology is an important technique in the planning of manufacture that allows
the advantages of flow production organization to be obtained in what otherwise would
be jobbing of batch manufacture. The approach is to arrange separate machines groups
with appropriate internal group layout to suit the production of specific component
families, formed in accordance with the similarity of operations that to be performed on
them.
Due to the limited time available for this research project, only one of the techniques of
Group Technology will be use to conduct the analysis, which is the Production Flow
Analysis. The reason of choosing this technique is because it is more simple and easy to
implement and also due to lots of research and background has been done on this
technique.
