Cellular flow work stations and equipment are arranged in sequence. The goal is minimal transportation movement or delays in production time. How do products flow through a cellular work system?
  1. Groups of odd number lots, as these are considered “lucky” batches.
  2. Processed in multiple batches determined by the Kanban.
  3. Processed in lots determined by the processing department.
  4. One piece at a time based on customer need.
Explanation
Answer: D - Products flow through a cellular work system one piece at a time based on customer need. Cellular flow improves the velocity and flexibility to vary product type or features on the production line in response to specific customer demands. This minimizes the time it takes for a single product to flow through the entire production process.
