5 LEAN ENGINEERING The Lean Engineer (LE), has an IE foundation, enhanced with lean tools, six sigma capability and a lean to green outlook to take the plant to zero waste going to the landfill. In his (or her) drive to remove waste from the system, the lean engineer s tool box is filled as follows: The design of a mixed model final assembly line to level demand on the supply chain. The design of subassembly cells using rabbit chase, sub-cells or TSS to eliminate conveyer lines and line balancing. The design of manufacturing cells using existing equipment to eliminate the job shop s functional design. The design of quick change work holder and cutting tool holders for the manufacturing cells. The integration of quality tools and defect prevention devices, in-line inspection devices, including poka-yokes and decouplers.

6 LEAN ENGINEERING CONT The integration of safety devices, walk away switches, automatic unload mechanisms and ergonomic improvements. The development of one piece flow processes for operations like painting and heat treatment and inspection. The development of machine tools for true lean manufacturing cells, design and built for the manufacturing cells. The last step requires lots of creativity and innovation to design and build and implement machine tools for the cells with narrow footprints, rapid tool and work holder exchanges, in-process inspection, rapid unload and load for one-piece flow, good ergo and safety features and one-piece flow operation built around standard work.

7 LEAN ENGINEERING IN ACADEMICS While many IE programs have neglected the lean engineering material and stuck with efforts to optimize the mass production system or parts thereof, over 60% of the manufacturing industries have implemented lean manufacturing.

8 DESIGN OF THE FACTORY WITH A FUTURE By designing and implementing this new manufacturing system (factory) design Toyota Motor Company has become the world leader in the automotive industry. The final assembly line in the mass production system is changed into a mixed model final assembly lines, with conveyers, are redesigned into manufacturing cells. Final assembly operates with a Takt Time, and the cells are redesigned into manufacturing cells. Final assembly operates with a Takt Time and to operate on a Make One Check one Move One On (MO CO MOO) basis. Single cycle machine tools are used with built-in devices to check parts (poka-yokes). Between the machines are devices (decouplers) designed to assist standing, walking workers producing the parts in the manufacturing cells.

9 THE NEW INDUSTRIAL ENGINEER When the Toyota Motor Company and Taiichi Ohno invented the Toyota Production System, they also redefined the profession of industrial engineering which grew up and flourished with the mass production system. This new engineer, a lean engineer, must be able to design a mixed model final assembly lines for zero defects, design of manufacturing and subassembly cells for one-piece flow, design of tooling (work holding and cutting tools) for rapid changeovers, and implement (pull) production/inventory control system called kanban), all part of the design of the lean manufacturing system.

10 DESIGN RULES FOR L-CMS TT=Hr s Available in Day/ DD ; where DD is the daily demand DD = (No. of cars/month)/(no. of days in Month) Note PR = Production Rate for final assembly = 1/TT MO C0 MOO (one piece flow with defect prevention) SMED Rules: A methodology for rapid tool and die change MT ij < NCT, where NCT TT (1- allowance) K = (DD L + SS) / s (Little s Law, operational Form)

40 THE AUTOMATION STEPS FOR MACHINE TOOLS LIST DEVELOPED BY M.BAUDIN AND J T. BLACK Early on, Toyota engineers devised a list of steps to follow in sequence to successfully automate a machining process. Today machine tools (CNCs) are so automated that this list is no longer applicable but in many machine shops are still far away from Toyota s level. This list developed empirically by Toyota engineers as a result of carrying out many projects. The progression has to do with the tasks carried out by operators in the manufacturing cells 1. Add power drives to manual operations (A1). Except for occasional hand tapping, very few operations in today's machine shops utilize cuts actually powered by the human hand.

41 THE AUTOMATION STEPS FOR MACHINE TOOLS LIST DEVELOPED BY M.BAUDIN AND J T. BLACK 2. Add power feed to manual feed (A2). Conventional machines with automatic feed mechanisms did not have any stopping mechanism, required an operator to prevent cutting from farther than it should 3. Add on automatic stop and return to start position (A3). The third step is the enabler for cell operations in which an operator concurrently serves several machines. The operator can press a walk-away switch to start the cycle. The machine may make several cuts, for each of which the operator needs to press Start, or it can automatically sequence cuts, so that the operator only presses Start once. Either way, the operator does not need to stay and watch the machine during cuts. This is the MO- CO-MOO level using single cycle automatics.

42 THE AUTOMATION STEPS FOR MACHINE TOOLS LIST DEVELOPED BY M.BAUDIN AND J T. BLACK 4. Add automatic unloading. Automatic unloading is easier than automatic loading because it does not require precise positioning of the part with respect to the tool. The simultaneous automation of unloading and loading results in using more expensive methods than necessary for unloading. This step is the enabler for chaku-chaku lines also called decouplers. As part of routing operation in the cell, the operator loads the next part and checks for the one just unloaded, unless it is checked in the decoupler. 5. Add automatic loading. While automatic loading, the role of the operator in the manufacturing cell is further augmented to checking parts and conveying them between machines. The machine continually loads the next part and starts cutting without human intervention. The operator, however, still plays an additional role in excepting handling, including responding to stoppages, replacing broken or worn tools, or calling maintenance in case of major failures.

43 THE AUTOMATION STEPS FOR MACHINE TOOLS LIST DEVELOPED BY M.BAUDIN AND J T. BLACK 6. Add automatic problem detection. The next stage is to eliminate the operator s exception handling role. As long as the operator relies on noise, smell, the sight of smoke, or the feeling of vibrations to detect when something is wrong, he or she must stay close enough to the machine and pay attention at all times. If the machine is equipped with sensors and an alarm system that alerts the operator to the problem clearly, then the operators role is reduced to transportation. 7. Add automatic transportation. The final steps has machines in a cell linked with chutes, decouplers, small conveyors or, in some cases, robots; and parts of the cell or line work unattended. Lines of stamping presses, machine transfer lines, or what the CIM literature calls Flexible Manufacturing Cells (FMCO are at this level)

54 LEAN PRODUCTION REQUIRES Redesign of final assembly into mixed model to level the demand on the supply chain Redesign of the subassembly cell into flexible U-shaped cells Redesign of the job shop into manufacturing cells Significant reduction in defect rates, setup times and equipment failures (7 tools; 6 ; SMED; TPM) Focus on labor driven systems and not capacity driven systems Minimum WIP systems to support maximum flexibility, minimum throughput time, minimum labor, and maximum output rates Pull versus push production strategies (Kanban Systems) A relentless and never ending drive to eliminate all forms if waste and variance in the system (5S)

56 FIVE DESIGN RULES FOR LEAN PRODUCTION TAKT TIME RULE ONE PIECE FLOW RULE CELL DESIGN RULE SMED RULES KANBAN RULES

57 IN THE L-CMS UNDERSTANDING THESE DESIGN RULES IS TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED AND WORKS RULE 1 TT =HR s Available in a Day/ DD, where DD = (No. of. Cars/Month)/(No. of Days in Month) Note: PR = Production Rate = 1/TT RULE 2 MO-CO-MOO (OPF with defect prevention) RULE 3 MT ij < NCT where NCT TT (1 allowance) NCT = Necessary Cycle Time RULE 4 SMED Rules and Methodology RULE 5 K = (DD L + SS)/ a (Little s Law Operational version)

58 RULE 1 TAKT TIME RULE Level & Balance the manufacturing system make final assembly mixed model cells produce the daily demand. Sequence and Synchronize. The lean production system depends upon smoothing the manufacturing system (Toyota s terminology). In order to eliminate variation or fluctuation in quantities in the supply chain, it is necessary to eliminate fluctuation in the final assembly by MMFA. DD =average daily demand for parts = Monthly demand (forecast plus customer orders) Number of days in each month PR = Average daily demand (parts)/shift Available hours/shift = DD Hrs/day = parts minute TT = 1/production rate for final assembly (FA) = 1/PR TT = Available hours/shift Available DD/shift = TAKT TIME for final assembly

59 RULE 2 ONE PIECE FLOW RULE Make the subassembly lines into U-shaped manufacturing cells that operate like final assembly with OPF. MO-CO-MOO = Make One Check One Move One On with output a linear function of the Number of Operators in a cell. 450 OUTPUT PER HOUR NO DEFECTS ALLOWED TO ADVANCE NO. OF WORKERS

60 RULE 3 LEAN SHOP RULE MT ij < NCT (Necessary Cycle Time) where NCT = TT (1 allowance) and MT ij = machining time i = no. of products in family j = no. of SCA s in cell THE MACHINE TOOLS ARE SINGLE CYCLE AUTOMATICS (SCA S)

61 RULE 4 SMED (SHINGO) 1. Determine what us happening now video the setup 2. Separate the Internal from External elements 3. Shift Internal to External 4. Eliminate Adjustments

62 LITTLE S LAW Little s Law states a mathematical relationship between throughput rate, throughput time, and the amount of work-in-process inventory. Little s Law is useful for estimating the time that an item will spend in work-in-process inventory, time for a process. Using the terminology defined in this section, Little s Law is defined as follows: Throughput time = Work in - process Throughput rate ; TPT = WIP PR Parts/Day Kanban Design Rule - K= L DD +S a ; Ka = WIP L DD = TPT PR (parts/min) For A Cell CT = 1/PR = MIN/PART TPT = CT SOH SO SOH controls TPT

63 RULE 5 KANBAN RULE K= L DD +S K = No. of carts ; a = cart size, L = Lead time, SS = Safety stock DD = Daily Demand = Cars/day Ka = DD L + SS = inventory in a link Little s Law = TPT = WIP/PR (for any manufacturing system) Or WIP = TPT PR (units in the system) = TPT/TT (units in inventory) For A Link For A System Ka = L DD = WIP = TPT PR (ignoring SS) a So L for a series of LINKS = TPT for system Note: DD = Cars/Day = PR = Cars/Day

64 LEAN MANUFACTURING Flexibility: - Mixed Model Final Assembly - Rapid tooling changeover in cells - Rapid modification for new products - LTFC Design to scale up or down - MO CO MOO operation in Sub Assembly Design Manufacturing Cells for One Piece Flow, Maintainability, Reliability, Durability Quick Tooling Exchange Single Cycle Automatics Integrated Quality 7 Tools, Poka yokes and Decouplers Design Machine for Lean Cells
