Routing

Ordered sequence of operations, work centers and standard times required to manufacture an item.

Examples

  1. 01The routing for a shaft lists sawing, turning, milling, hardening and grinding, with work centres and standard times for each.
  2. 02When a new machine replaces two older ones, the routing of every affected part is updated before orders are released.
  3. 03Wrong times in the routing were the reason planned and actual lead times differed by 3 days.
