VARIANT / RETRIEVAL CAPP
In the retrieval type of CAPP system the
various parts to be manufactured are
classified, given codes and grouped
within certain families.
Within each part family standard process
plan is established, which is stored in the
computer. This process plan is also used
for the new parts that come under the
same family.
The system developed is such that it is
easier to retrieve the process plans for
the new work parts. The whole process
plan documents the operations as well as
the sequence of operations on different
machines.
The retrieval CAPP system offers lots of
flexibility as one can do lots of editing
and changes as per the requirements.
GENERATIVE CAPP
In the generative process planning systems new
plan is made automatically from scratch for each
part using the computers, without involving
human assistance.
The computer program uses a set of algorithms
that enables it to take a number of technical and
logical decisions to attain the optimum final
manufacturing process plan. One has to give
certain inputs to the systems like detailed
description of the part to be manufactured.
This CAPP system synthesizes the design of the
optimum process sequence based on the analysis
of the part geometry, material and other relevant
parameters.

PRODUCTION PLANNING AND CONTROL (PPC)
Where to produce?
end products”.
Material requirements planning (MRP) is a system for
calculating the materials and components needed to manufacture a
product. It consists of three primary steps: taking inventory of the
materials and components on hand, identifying which additional ones
are needed and then scheduling their production or purchase.
OBJECTIVES OF MRP SYSTEM
To improve customer service by meeting delivery schedules promised and
shortening delivery lead times.
To reduce the inventory cost by reducing inventory levels.
To improve plant operating efficiency by better use of productive resources.
To ensure that material and components are available for production, and final
products are ready for dispatch.
To maintain minimum inventory but also ensure right quantity of material is
available at the right time to produce right quantity of final products.
To ensure planning of all manufacturing processes, this scheduling of different job
works as to minimize or remove any kind of idle time for machine and workers.
