Production capacity losses analysis in manufacturing sector : A case study of UAE ductile iron pipes manufacturing industry

Production capacity is referred as the total throughput a company, machine or system can produce. Several production systems are around us in various sectors. In manufacturing sector, there are possibilities of production losses due to various factors. Downtime cases, machine or human errors, faulty...
