Method of and apparatus for production management

Abstract

A production management computer indicate the number of parts corresponding to a number of products smaller than a planned number of products to be produced to a controller. A parts supplying section supplies the indicated number of parts through a parts holding section to a product producing section. When the number of parts held by the parts holding section becomes nil, semi-products held by a semi-product holding section are counted, and as many parts as the number of the counted number of semi-products are additionally supplied. The product producing section can produce products without causing an excess or shortage of parts.
