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...

Production capacity is referred as the total throughput a company, machine or system can produce. Several production systems are around us in various sectors.

Downtime cases, machine or human errors, faulty equipment or traditional production system all are source of production capacity losses in manufacturing sector. The aim of this project is to conduct analytic study of production capacity losses in manufacturing industries. The project takes ductile iron pipes industry in United Arab Emirates (UAE) as a case study of the production capacity losses investigation.
