The operation that controls the work feeding the bottleneck and must operate at a rate equal to the output of the bottleneck so the time buffer queue is maintained is known as a "drum" operation.
The ratio of actual output to standard output is defined as efficiency.
The product structure file contains a list of the single-level components and quantities needed to assemble a parent.
Capability index is useful to predict process variability. It is a statistical measure of a process's ability to produce output within specification limits (Upper Specification Limit - USL and Lower Specification Limit - LSL) based on the process mean and standard deviation. It is commonly used to determine whether a process is capable of meeting customer requirements and is calculated as the ratio of the width of the specification limits to the spread of the process data.
The file that contains a list of the single-level components and quantities needed to assemble a parent is called the "product structure file".
A facility, function, department, or resource whose capacity is equal to or less than the demand placed upon it is known as a bottleneck.
