Abstract

This chapter, authored by Asao, discusses assembly systems without conveyor equipment (the cell production systemsCell production systems (CPS)), which have been introduced in Japanese electrical and precision equipment assembly workshops since the early 1990s, and identifies two main points. Firstly, the cell production system (CPS) has four basic characteristics compared with traditional production systemsTraditional production systems. Secondly, five social and technological conditions necessitated and enabled the conversion from traditional production systems to CPSCell production systems (CPS). Where these five conditions or similar conditions exist, it is expected that conversion from traditional production systemsTraditional production systems to CPS will keep progressing.
