Abstract
Process planning plays a major role in determining the cost of components and affects all factory activities; disappointingly, it is an art rather than a science. Process planning activities are predominantly labour intensive, depending on the experience, skill and intuition of the planner. Thus, it robs the manufacturing system of its natural flexibility.
This chapter advises two methods for managing this important task:
First, run seminars on how to improve process planning in which experience is transferred from one planner to the others. Include an understanding of the detail parameters of deciding upon a process plan. Use textbook data.
Second, redefine the process planner’s task. A process planner should build a roadmap of alternatives, and let each user generate the suitable routing at the time of need.
