10 Single Card Withdrawal Kanban System-54 Product from Production W Withdrawal Card W W To Customer W W Withdrawal Collection Box

11 Value Stream Mapping-56 Tool to create a process map that includes major process steps and information flow Flow depicting information and process Value Stream Map can be done at total factory level or single process level. Key metrics Process Steps Inventory Waste Cycle Time Yield Changeover Time.

12 Value Stream Mapping Start With a Flow Chart of the Processes Add Waits, Delays, Storage Events Add Cycle Times, Inventory Levels Add Communication Links = Lots of Symbols and Arrows!

13 Example Flow Chart for a Lumber Frame Sales & Marketing Process Chart-Harry Can Make for Current or Future State Design & Engineering Purchasing & & Production Control Rough Mill Ripping & Chop Machine Room Multiple Machines (Trim/Bore/Dowel/Notch) Modify Existing Unit Creates New Unit Frame Assembly Upholstery Dept Finishing

14 Value Stream Mapping-57-Phil From Lean Production Simplified

15 Select a Product Family Group of products that pass through similar processing steps or common equipment. Specific product line Manufacturing cell Product Family 58

16 Kaizen In Japanese this is pronounced "kaizen" 改 ("kai") means "change" or "the action to correct". 善 ("zen") means "good". In Lean Manufacturing Kaizen is Associated With Improvement Events in a Team Atmosphere That Occurs on a Regular Periodic Timetable

17 Kaizen Kaizen is Based on Making Steady Small Improvements That Lead to Large Changes Over Time Kaizen Events Are Often Lead by Consultants or Company Lean Manufacturing Staff Employees Kaizen Events Should Be Documented and Suggestions Evaluated. Suggestions That Become Improvement Projects Should Be Tracked for Performance

18 Set Up Improvement or SMED Set Up Time Reduction Improvements Are Required to Support Small Batch Size Manufacturing SMED Refers to Quick Set Up Improvements in the Metal Industry When Changeover Times Are Less Than 10 Minutes Set Up Time Reductions Require Attention to a Wide Variety of Areas That Includes Scheduling, Tooling, Equipment, Material Handing, Etc.

19 Total Preventative Maintenance = TPM Goal is to Empower Employees to Take Over Much of the Regular Maintenance of Factory Equipment Such That the Employees Become More Skilled and Take Responsibility for Their Equipment It is Important to Have Virtually No Downtime in a JIT Work Environment and TPM is a Requirement to Reach Up Operational Times Close to 100%
