Abstract: Abstract This chapter discusses the appropriateness of the standard objective of minimising intercell movement, and considers possible alternative objectives for cell formation, including maximisation of intracell movement, minimisation of cross-training costs and minimisation of set-up times. The viable ways of combining several objectives in one formulation are briefly discussed.
