ERP Solution for
Process Manufacturing
Process manufacturing is a production method where goods are created by combining supplies, ingredients, or raw materials using a predetermined formula or “recipe.” This approach is commonly used in industries where products are produced in bulk. While discrete manufacturing results in products that can be differentiated by individual units, such as smartphones, process manufacturing produces indistinct units, such as salt, oil, and water.
In process manufacturing, each step must be completed before the next one begins. The production process is carried out under specific conditions of heat, time, and pressure, leading to thermal or chemical conversion. This irreversible and permanent process means the end product cannot be disassembled into its constituent parts. For instance, a soft drink cannot be separated back into its original ingredients, and the same applies to plastics, food items, and oil-related products.
Process Manufacturing can be broadly categorized as Continuous Process Manufacturing & Batch process Manufacturing.
