.
Job shop Production

 A process technology suitable for a variety of custom designed


products in some volume.
 This production system adopts process layout as by this
production system we manufacture more variety of products at low
product volume.
Batch Production

●
A process technology suitable for variety of products in varying
volumes.

●
Here limited product variety which is fixed for one batch of
product. Ex. Bakery shop, medicine shop.
