Repetitive Manufacturing
High-volume production of similar items using repeated routings and stable production rates.
Examples
- 01The plant making washing-machine motors uses repetitive manufacturing: the same 4 models run every day at a steady rate of 900 units per shift.
- 02In repetitive manufacturing, the daily review compares hourly output with the fixed rate and links gaps to quality or material problems.
- 03A new motor variant is only added after checking that it fits the repetitive manufacturing rhythm without long changeovers.
