What is the types of Manufacturing Systems ?

A manufacturing system is an approach to making products that is based upon several factors. These include how much of the product is needed, how quickly the product must be produced and how unique the product must be to ensure sufficient sales. Manufacturing systems include custom, assembly, flexible, intermittent, reconfigurable, just-in-time and lean manufacturing systems.

Custom manufacturing is the original form of production. It is the making of unique items, one at a time, by employing the skills of a single craftsman. Craftsmen might work alongside one another, but they do not work together as a team, because one person completes the manufacture of an individual item.

This is in contrast with an assembly manufacturing system, in which each worker contributes one or more actions that are required in the manufacturing process. This action might be repeated every few seconds or for longer intervals, depending on the complexity of the task. This also is referred to as a mass-production manufacturing system, and it typically values speed and uniformity. The drawbacks to mass-production manufacturing systems are the difficulty of assuring the correct supply of products in real time and being unable to provide customized product offerings.

There are four types of Manufacturing Systems :

Mass Production

Batch Production

Job Shop

Project

Broadly speaking, if you try to classify - there can be only two distinct manufacturing transformations, viz:

(a) Discrete and (b) continuous

I agree with Mr. hany         .

The types of Manufacturing Systems 

1. Line Flow manufacturing.

2. Intermittent  manufacturing

 3. Project manufacturing.
