The document defines and describes the components of a production system. A production system combines various inputs like materials, labor, machines, and information and transforms them through a process to produce finished goods and services. The key components are facilities, which include the factory, equipment, and layout, and manufacturing support systems, which encompass how work and machines are organized. The aim of a production system is to provide the right products, in the proper quantities, at the needed time and location, and at a reasonable cost.

- 3. Production system production system + = Production is act of either “manufacturing of goods” or providing “services”. System is an arrangement or assembly of inter- dependent processes that are based on some logic and function. The methods, procedure or arrangement which includes all functions required to accumulate the inputs, process or reprocess the inputs, and deliver the marketable output.

- 6. Components of a production system There are two components for a production system Facilities Manufacturing support systems
- 7. Facilities The factory and equipment in the facility and the way the facility is organized (plant layout). Facilities include the factory, production machines and tooling, material handling equipment, inspection equipment, and computer systems that control the manufacturing operations. For the facilities, plant layout is a significant factor for the production system to be efficient.
- 8. Manufacturing support systems Manufacturing systems include the logical groupings of equipment and workers in the factory. A combination of a group of workers and machines are termed as Production line. The manufacturing system can be classified as the following three systems: 1) Manual work systems 2) Worker-machine systems 3) Automated systems
- 9. Manual work systems Worker-machine systems Automated systems A worker performing one or more tasks without the aid of powered tools, but sometimes using hand tools.
- 10. Manual work systems Worker-machine systems Automated systems A worker operating powered equipment.
- 11. Manual work systems Worker-machine systems Automated systems A process performed by a machine without direct participation of a human.
- 13. Aim of production system The aim of a production system is to provide goods and services for mankind. In right quantities At the appropriate place At the desired time With the required quantity At a reasonable cost
- 14. Characteristics features of production system Production is an organized activity. The system transforms the various inputs into useful outputs. Production system does not operate in isolation from the other organizational systems. There exists a feedback about the activities which is essential to control and improve system performance.
- 15. Challenges in manufacturing The challenges in manufacturing includes Changing market conditions – shift from seller’s market to buyer’s market Rate of change is faster Global competition Need to be proactive Increased customer focus – the customers are less loyal.
- 16. Conclusion Production system is a result of arranging inputs, their conversion process and output based on some logic and functions. Production system fails if any such arrangement made don't give a desired level of outcome.
