Finite loading definition
/What is Finite Loading?
Finite loading occurs when only a set amount of work is allocated to a work center, which is capped at its estimated capacity level. Doing so minimizes the queue of work waiting in front of a work center, which in turn reduces your inventory investment. Finite loading requires the use of detailed computer-based planning, based on the normal usage requirements of all jobs and the normal capacity levels of work centers. It is a good way to develop an initial production schedule.
