把工業流水(shui)線(xian)生產線(xian)技術(shu)和重疊技術(shu)比較，一般有(you)如下的一些特(te)點：

(1)工業流水(shui)線(xian)生產線(xian)一定重(zhong)疊，比重(zhong)疊更苛刻。

(2)一條工業流(liu)水線生產線通常有(you)多個流(liu)水段組(zu)成。

(3)每段有專用功(gong)能部件(jian)，各部件(jian)順序(xu)連接，不斷(duan)流。

(4)工業流水線(xian)生產線(xian)有建立時間(jian)、滿載時間(jian)、排空時間(jian)。

(5)各段時(shi)間盡量短(duan)、一致(zhi)；不一致(zhi)時(shi)慢(man)子過(guo)程為瓶頸。

(6)一般技術書上給出(chu)的指(zhi)標(biao)如大(da)吞吐率等，為滿負載指(zhi)標(biao)。
