Abstract :
The following paper presents, through the use of a case study, how computer aided manufacturing software can lead to factory floor productivity improvements. The case study is focused around a medium complexity product that was largely produced in house and with manual labor. The results of the study show that with minimal capital investment, factory floor productivity for the given product can be substantially improved.
