Production Planning

Production Sequence

Defined order in which products or jobs are processed to meet delivery, setup and flow objectives.

Examples

  1. 01The production sequence on the paint line runs from light to dark colours, which reduces cleaning time between jobs.
  2. 02When a rush order arrives, the planner checks how changing the production sequence affects setups and other delivery dates.
  3. 03A fixed weekly production sequence for the 12 main products cuts setup time by 25 % and makes material calls predictable.
