Plant capacity is the maximum amount of production for a specific production facility.
Line balancing occurs within a plant with multiple production lines. Resources may be moved between production lines in order to achieve the right mix of finished products. For example, for each car body produced other lines may produce four wheels, two seats, two tail lights, etc. so that final assembly will have available the right mix of parts. Producing extra doors, for example, will not increase total plant output for the day and may result in storage problems which line balancing would have prevented.

What does undercapacity mean?
Capacity is the ability often related to production. Undercapacity would mean that the organization can increase their output without adding on to their facility. For example, an auto parts plant may have the capacity to produce 100 parts per hour, but currently only running 80 parts per hour. They could increase their capacity without any major changes to their plant.
What is dividend-balancing?
dividend balancing means dividend due to foreign partner in foreign exchange have to be matched with foreign exchange earnings i.e income from exports.

What is the function of balancing line in a centrifugal pump or compressor?
The balancing line is a transmission line consisting of two conductors of the same type, that are grounded to the compressor's circuits and to the ground and helps keep external noise down.
Why is it important for business and employers to support an employers capacity for balancing family and work?
you need a balance
What is the Use of Balancing line in Boiler feed pump?
Boiler feed pump's suction pressure be aprox. 15Kg/cm2 and discharge pressure be 180Kg/cm2. So the balancing line balance the pressure and protect the boiler feed pump. my quastion is that what is the working principal of balancing leak off
What do you knwo about The balancing of Transportation Model. If unbalanced then remedy.?
Suppose, the Chittagong plant capacity is 1300 cars instead of 1500 cars. Since the total supply (1000+1300+1200=3500) happens not equal the total demand (2300+1400=3700). Thus the resulting transportation model is said to be unbalanced. This unbalanced situation means that it will not be possible to fill all the demand at the distribution centre. Because the demand exceeds the supply, a dummy source (plant) with a capacity of 200 cars (3700-3500) is added to balance the transportation model. The unit transportation costs from the dummy plant to the two destinations are zero because the plant does not exist. The following table shows that the balanced model under the new capacity restriction of the Chittagong plant. The dummy plant has a capacity of 200 cars.
How does a plane fly if you are transporting a plant?
The same way it flies if you are not transporting a plant, by carefully balancing lift, weight, thrust and drag.
What is nutrient balancing?
in nature, decaying plant parts add nutrients to soil, while plant roots take some nutrients out of the soil.
What is the purpose of balancing line in pump mainly in condensate extraction pump in power plant?
From the little detail you provide I assume you are referring to the Condensate extraction pump vents. These must return to the condenser from high points to ensure line is liquid filled and causes minimum pressure loss to the pumps. NPSH available to CEP is very small and must all be used if full capacity is to be obtained. Leaving valve open is not a problem provided both halves of condenser are in use.

Why is used the balancing line in boiler feed pump and its direction of flow?
In boiler feed pumps usually the discharge pressure is 20 to 30 times tie suction Pressure so to protect the pump balancing line is given from discharge to suction.
What is the difference between nominal and design capacity of a plant?
Nominal capacity is the rate at which the parties involved would like for the plant to operate. Design capacity is the rate at which the designers have engineered the plan to operate.
