that ideal time in the system has to be minimized to get the system working efficiently and to get maximum productivity.
There are enormous numbers of products produced in tool industry but here more focus has been converged to the Taper
Shank tool manufacturing. Bottlenecks in the process of its production is found by using OPC and FPC and by noting and
comparing the practical and theoretically described time consumed in performing activities of the production in order to
achieve the desired goal of the industry that is to maximize the production and minimize the cost hence making product
quality products and cost efficient.
