Info wanted on manufacturing household appiances
(OP)
College lecturer is looking for some schematics and breakdowns of manufacturing processes
involved in making simple household appliances such as a steam iron,
coffee machine, hairdrier etc. also any production charts for making these
items inbulk/ mass production.
Any such info would be useful.

RE: Info wanted on manufacturing household appiances
I cant help you directly with a black box manufacturing process for household appliances.....
but if you look in the book 'Lean Thinking' by Jones and Womack, I think I remember seeing a similar process for a Coca Cola can, which may help you to draw the process, it will depend how detailed you want it to be.
Also I used to work at a factory, where they made White goods, and the process from memory was basically, receive raw matls, press/form metal parts, heat enamel/ceramic to fix to metal where needed, join parts together (fix with fasteners / glue), add electric parts, and assemble & test. Basically.
Also these may help:

hope this helps.
