Optimization of Capacity Utilization in a Manufacturing Industry – A Case Study
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
In today’s competitive market, every organization is striving hard to excel to utilize capacities effectively which determines the position of the organization in the Market. To achieve effective utilization a lot of planning is required with respect to capacity utilization. Capacity Planning and Capacity Management are today’s modern organization requirement. The capacity plans needs to be executed flawlessly without unpleasant surprises .To match the capacity with the plans, an attempt has been made to evaluate capacity utilization index in a cement manufacturing industry. Overall equipment effectiveness is calculated with three separate but measurable components availability, performance and quality. Many manufacturing companies benchmark their industry to set challenging target at 85% capacity utilization, even though 100% OEE is possible.
