Synchronous production is superior to the just-in-time production system because it is a balanced system in which the capacities of all operations are equal.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
Synchronous manufacturing, also called the theory of constraints (TOC), is an entire manufacturing system with unbalanced operations that emphasizes total system performance. Synchronous manufacturing is a scheduling and manufacturing control system that seeks to locate and then eliminate or minimize any constraints to greater production output, such as machines, people, tools, and facilities. The system's output is determined by and limited to the output of the slowest operation, or bottleneck, that is working at full capacity. Thus a bottleneck is the operation in a manufacturing system whose output sets the limit for the entire system's output.
