This article describes how instant research explicates the features, analogy, and principles, of manufacturing productivity management in contemporary industrial arenas. It is exceedingly necessary to increase manufacturing production to improve productivity of the company. Current research provides a substitute way-out to optimize the material and workforce resources available in the plant. The authors proposed the implementation of clustering concept with improved tooling for manufacturing. The intended approach stimulated productivity growth by using improved production facilities, which resulted in reduced monthly rejections arising out of manufacturing's critical component. Component production cost was reduced through the use of curbing cycle time. The implementation study magnificently contributed towards productivity enhancement by producing more with less resource input. The experimentation recorded an increase of over16% in monthly production by dint of curtailed cycle time. An average gain of 5.27% in total productivity was achieved.

Frontier Production Function

The total factor productivity became an interesting concept in the measurement of productivity growth. Productivity is a ratio of output to input. The most common measurement of productivity is single factor productivity or partial productivity such as of land, labor, or capital.A total (factor) productivity is a productivity of all factors of production where the factors are aggregated. In cross-sectional studies this total productivity is a ratio of actual to potential output where the potential output is estimated from ther frontier production function. One of the methods to estimate this frontier function is by using linear programming technique.The total productivity does not always coincide with a single factor productivity of land (yield), that in the study area the larger farms tend to have higher total productivity than yield

Plant Level

This paper uses plant-level estimates of total factor productivity covering 40 years to examine what role, if any, productivity has played in the decline of output share and employment in British manufacturing. The results show that TFP growth in British manufacturing was negative between 1973 and 1982, marginally positive between 1982 and 1994 and strongly positive between 1994 and 2012. Poor TFP performance therefore does not appear to be the main cause of the decline of UK manufacturing. Productivity growth decompositions show that, in the latter period, the largest contributions to TFP growth come from foreign-owned plants, industries that are heavily involved in trade, and industries with high levels of intangible assets.

This chapter provides an overview of labor and total factor productivity growth in the manufacturing sector in the United States from colonial times to the present. An introductory section defines concept and terms. This is followed by an historical survey of improvement in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and sections on the manufacturing revolution of the 1920s and the sector’s contribution during the Great Depression. The remainder of the chapter provides a quantitative perspective on manufacturing productivity growth and its contribution to the overall economy from the end of World War I through the first decade of the twenty-first century.

It Productivity

An increasingly influential 'technological-discontinuity' paradigm suggests that IT-induced technological changes are rapidly raising productivity while making workers redundant. This paper explores the evidence for this view among the IT-using US manufacturing industries. There is some limited support for more rapid productivity growth in IT-intensive industries depending on the exact measures, though not since the late 1990s. Most challenging to this paradigm, and to our expectations, is that output contracts in IT-intensive industries relative to the rest of manufacturing. Productivity increases, when detectable, result from the even faster declines in employment.

Ring die is the critical component of pellet mill, its working performance and service life directly affect the pellet quality and production cost. This work analyzed the stress distribution of ring dies with two different hole arrangements and studied the influence of stress distribution on ring die strength. It is shown that there is stress concentration at the hole edge and the stress concentration distributes along the width of ring die at the feed side, the die hole arrangement have influence on ring die strength and the effect of hole wall thickness on ring die strength increased with the wear of die hole, finally a better pattern of hole arrangement was obtained.
