This process of rearrangement has been. considered as being subjective and difficult and may result in improper assignments to parts families, resulting in a negation of benefits promised. This paper presents an effective algorithm to identify part-families and bottleneck-parts, given machine groupings, rather than addressing the machine grouping problem in general
