Comparative Study on Unit Production System Line and Progressive Bundle System Line

Abstract

A production system may be described as the mechanism by which we convert inputs of resources into outputs of useful goods and services. On the factory floor, several production systems are accessible, such as the bundle production system, the progressive line production system, the Straight line System, and the unit production system, among others. Each method of manufacturing has its own distinct operating features. The Unit Production System (UPS) is a mechanical system in which the unit of production is a single garment and not bundles, the garment components are automatically transported from workstation to workstation according to a predetermined sequence, and the work stations are designed so that the components are presented as close as possible to the operator's left hand to reduce the amount of movement required to grasp them. This technology eliminates all handling of bundles, reduces the time required for pick-up and disposal, automatically logs output, and allows for simultaneous production of many styles. Unit Production System (UPS) offer significant benefits over other human and mechanical technologies utilized for large apparel manufacture. In this study I provided 3 days data and analiysis it and, present it by table chart and graph. I found these benefits over Progressive Bundle System (PBS) line SMV Variation 14%, Capacity Variation 16%, Manpower Variation 16%, Output Variation 3%, Defected Goods Variation 46%. But Unit Production System (UPS) installation is very expensive . 22 Station full setup installation cost was 2400,000 Taka.
