  2. plant location
  3. plant layout
  4. process layout

Answer.1. plant capacity

Explanation:

Plant capacity refers to the volume or no. of units that can be manufactured during a given time period. It is also known as production capacity. It is the task of the project manager to determine the feasible normal capacity and nominal maximum capacity for the project.

  1. plant capacity
  2. plant location
  3. plant layout
  4. process layout

Answer.2. plant location

Explanation:

Plant Location refers to the board area where the enterprise is to be established.

Plant location refers to the choice of region and the selection of a particular site for setting up a business or factory. An ideal location is one where the cost of the product is kept to a minimum, with a large market share, the least risk, and the maximum social gain.

  1. plant capacity
  2. plant location
  3. plant layout
  4. process layout

Answer.3. plant layout

Explanation:

Plant layout is the arrangement of machines, work areas, and service areas within a factory. Plant layout involves the development of physical relationships among building, equipment, and production operations, which will enable the manufacturing process to be carried on efficiently.

 

143. In _______ similar machines are placed in one place according to operations they perform.

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. cellular layout

Answer.1. process layout

Explanation:

  • A process layout is also called a job-shop or Functional layout.
  • In this layout, similar equipment or machines are grouped together.
  • This layout is useful to produce High varieties of products with low volume.
  • Part travels, according to the established sequence of operations, from area to area, where the proper machines are located for each operation.
  • Hospitals, where the areas are dedicated to a particular type of care, are an example of this.

 

144. In ______ Men and equipment are moved to the material which remains in one place:

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. cellular layout

Answer.3. stationary layout

Explanation:

In a stationary layout, the manufacturing operations require the movements of men, machines, and materials in the product layout and process layout, generally the machines are fixed installations and the operators are static in terms of their specified work stations.

 

145.  ______ Is possible wherein item is made in different types and sizes.

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. cellular layout

Answer.2. combined layout

Explanation:

A combination layout is possible where an item is being made in different types and sizes. Here machinery is arranged in a process layout but the process grouping is then arranged in a sequence to manufacture various types and sizes of products.

 

146. In ______ machines dedicated to sequences of production are grouped into cells.

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. cellular layout

Answer.4. cellular layout

Explanation:

Cellular manufacturing is a type of layout where machines are grouped according to the process requirements for a set of similar items (part families) that require similar processing. These groups are called cells.

 

147.  Line layout is also called ______

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. product layout

Answer.4. product layout

Explanation:

Product Layout is also known as line layout. It implies that various operations on raw material are performed in a sequence and the machines are placed along the product flow line i.e. machines are arranged in the sequence in which the raw material will be operated upon.

 

148.  In ______ machines are arranged in sequence in which they are used.

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. product layout

Answer.4. product layout

Explanation:

Product Layout is also known as line layout. It implies that various operations on raw material are performed in a sequence and the machines are placed along the product flow line i.e. machines are arranged in the sequence in which the raw material will be operated upon.

 

149. There is a continuous flow of materials in process towards the finished product stage in ______

  1. process layout
  2. combined layout
  3. stationary layout
  4. product layout

Answer.4. product layout

Explanation:

Product Layout is also known as line layout. It implies that various operations on raw material are performed in a sequence and the machines are placed along the product flow line i.e. machines are arranged in the sequence in which the raw material will be operated upon.

This type of layout is preferred for continuous production i.e. involving a continuous flow of in-process material towards the finished product stage.
