Functions and method of manufacturing department?
Production is the functional area responsible for turning inputs into finished outputs through a series of production processes. The Production Manager is responsible for making sure that raw materials are provided and made into finished goods effectively. He or she must make sure that work is carried out smoothly, and must supervise procedures for making work more efficient and more enjoyable.
In a manufacturing company the production function may be split into five sub-functions:
1. The production and planning department will set standards and targets for each section of the production process. The quantity and quality of products coming off a production line will be closely monitored. In businesses focusing on lean production, quality will be monitored by all employees at every stage of production, rather than at the end as is the case for businesses using a quality control approach.
2. The purchasing department will be responsible for providing the materials, components and equipment required to keep the production process running smoothly. A vital aspect of this role is ensuring stocks arrive on time and to the right quality.
3. The stores department will be responsible for stocking all the necessary tools, spares, raw materials and equipment required to service the manufacturing process. Where sourcing is unreliable, buffer stocks will need to be kept and the use of computerised stock control systems helps keep stcoks at a minimal but necessary level for production to continue unhindered.
4. The design and technical support department will be responsible for researching new products or modifications to existing ones, estimating costs for producing in different quantities and by using different methods. It will also be responsible for the design and testing of new product processes and product types, together with the development of prototypes through to the final product. The technical support department may also be responsible for work study and suggestions as to how working practices can be improved.
5. The works department will be concerned with the manufacture of products. This will include the maintenance of the production line and other necessary repairs. The works department may also have responsibility for quality control and inspection.
A key aspect of modern production is ensuring quality. The term quality means fitness for purpose i.e. a product, process or service should do exactly what is expected of it.

Where are LG products manufactured?
They are made in South Korea.. then shipped Stateside to the US by boat. I am an appliance serviceman. We have to order parts from them all the time.
Not sure exactly who actually "manufacturers" Crofton appliances ... trying to figure that out myself so I can get a replacement crock-pot lid. But apparently Crofton is a private-label (house brand) for the Aldi chain.
2009-07-04 I own several Crofton small appliances and have been very happy with most of them. Although the booklets which accompany them generally say "Germany", which is the home of Aldi, the low prices on these items say "No way are these manufactured in Germany!" Most likely, these items are manufactured in China. Still, in most cases, the quality ranges from 'very satisfactory' to 'exceptional', especially considering the price!
Here is an article by ApplianceGuy on applince.net, indicating that a Crofton personal blender is manufactured in China (this item has since been improved - I own the newer, safer version):

Description: This recall involves the Signature Gourmet™ (item number W14A3691) and the Crofton® (model number SB-19) personal blenders. The blenders are white and have 3 components parts - a base containing a power button, a blade assembly, and a blending cup. Signature Gourmet™ or Crofton® is printed on the front of the base of the unit. "SB-19" or "W14A3691" is located on a label at the bottom of the unit.
