Book Description
This thesis is concerned with the production enhancement of the Manufactured Housing processes in construction. The Manufactured Housing industry in U.S.A. offers a good solution for the increasing demand on the low cost housing compared to the site built houses. The main objective of this research is to identify ways by which the productivity of a manufactured housing factory could be improved leading to a cost effective and efficient system. A manufactured housing factory provides a controlled arena for studying the manufacturing process and to develop ways of improving the productivity and efficiency of the system. To achieve the objective of this research, a through literature review was carried out in the field of Manufactured Housing followed by process data collection at two manufactured housing factories in Indiana. A simulation model was developed using Arena simulation software to study the production process and to determine process bottlenecks. The model describes the production line and the logical flow of the production unit in the factory. The simulation model is aimed to depict the reality in the factory. Arena software enables the modeler to simulate very sophisticated levels of activity relationships and also has the advantage of animating the simulation process. Hence, animation serves as a verification tool throughout the continuous development of the model. A comparison was done between the output measures of the model and the factory data to validate the simulation model. The simulation study identified several process bottlenecks that when present could limit the efficiency of the production process in a manufactured housing factory.
Material Flow Systems in Manufacturing

Book Description
This book contains a collection of contributions related to the design and control of material flow systems in manufacturing. Material flow systems in manufacturing covers a broad spectrum of topics directly affecting issues related to facilities design, material handling and production planning and control. In selecting the papers to include in this book, the scope was limited to the design and operational control aspects related to the physical move ment of parts, tools, containers and material handling devices. Recent develop ments in this area naturally led to concentration on flow systems involving cellular manufacturing, and automated transport equipment such as automated guided vehicles. However, the concepts discussed have general applicability to a wide range of manufacturing flow problems. The book is organized in five major sections: 1. design integration and justification; 2. cell design and material handling considerations; 3. alternative material flow paths; 4. operational control problems; and 5. tooling requirements and transport equipment.
