Productivity Improvement Through Process Analysis for Optimizing Assembly Line in Packaging Industries

Assembly line balancing is to know how tasks are to be assigned to workstations, so that the predetermined goal is achieved. Minimization of the number of workstations and maximization of the production rate are the most common goals. This paper presents the actual case different components manufactured at industries in which productivity improvement is a prime concern and there is a necessity for balancing the operations at various strategic workstations in order to apply group technology and minimize the total production cost and number of workstations
