Study Notes
Types of Production
- Batch Production: Involves making everything in batches.
Production Process
- Manufacturing: Refers to the act of physically making a product.
Design and Development
- Design: Focuses on creating a product's concept, specifications, and features.
- Development: Focuses on creating a product's prototype and testing it.
Production System
- Consists of five elements: Input, Process, Output, Feedback, and Control.
Production Development
- Is part of the Product Realization Process.
Site Production
- Site Production: Involves building in the same place where the product will be used.
Manufacturing vs. Production
- Manufacturing: Refers specifically to the transformation of raw materials into physical products.
- Production: Encompasses a broader range of activities, including manufacturing, as well as services and other intangible goods.
Production Development Factors
- Not affected by: Fashion, as it is a external factor that does not directly influence production development.
Purpose of Design
- Design purpose: To create a product that meets customer needs and is feasible to produce.
