can be used in manufacturing to improve or repair a process. Variance Analysis in Manufacturing: Since it is a statistical tool that can benefit many businesses, analysis of variance can be used across many industries to identify issues or variances between samples. The use of this technique in many industries is attributed to the fact that it is a good statistical tool for testing and a common Six Sigma instrument (“Reasons to Use the ANOVA”, n.d.). In addition to manufacturing industry, analysis
struggle for Stryker is integrated manufacturing ability to meet the assembly lines production demands. In addition to those demands is the diminishing ability of Stryker’s integrated manufacturing team to make a profit while being burdened by higher operating costs. And lastly is the trial of complying with a growing array of Food and Drug Administration regulations concerning process change control. Currently the primary struggle for the integrated manufacturing employees at Stryker Instruments
Introduction The start of Assembly Lines in the Manufacturing Industry has contributed to the change that has occurred in the opportunity for employment, quantity of products, quality of products, and convenience of products being made. The assembly lines were first discovered by Henry Ford in 1913. He revolutionized the automobile industry with this new factory invention, his idea for this new factory tool came from his observing the continuous-process production of oil refineries, canneries, and

monitors. The sites give both Dell and its partners a real-time access to order and manufacture systems, so that replenishment can be tied closely to orders. Dell combined packaged applications from Microsoft and others with its homegrown software. That will help Dell integrate its planning and manufacturing systems with those of suppliers and create a free information flow within their respective core systems. The direct-sales PC pioneer is struggling to maintain customers' loyalty in the face of
engineering train that arrangements with architectures, systems and algorithms for keeping up the output of a particular process inside a coveted reach. For example, the temperature of a compound reactor may be controlled to keep up a steady item output. Process control is widely utilized as a part of industry and empowers large scale manufacturing of steady products from consistently operated processes, for example, oil refining, paper manufacturing, chemicals, force plants and numerous others.
