1. Lean 4.0 – A Conceptual Conjunction of Lean
Management & Industry 4.0- A Holistic
Approach for the Integration of Lean
Manufacturing Tools and Digital Technologies
2. HOLISTIC INTEGRATION
Industry 4.0 has begun to move forward, with
autonomous and flexible systems, based on a
technology-driven approach, while LM keeps traditional
processes focused on efficiency.

9. Points to Ponder- Poll
9
Will Industry 4.0 technologies replace Lean or will
they co-exist?
Are lean and Industry 4.0 technologies compatible
and share synergies or are they divergent to each
other?
Above all, the overreaching question is, can Lean
keep up with the digital era and evolve into Lean
4.0?
10. DISCUSSION TOPICS- Context of the lesson

Limitations of LM and how to
overcome through 4.0 and
automation?

Mapping
(1) How can LM and I4.0 supplement each other on a conceptual level?
(2) Which I4.0 tools can support specific lean methods?
(3) how I4.0 tools can contribute to optimising specific lean methods?
11. TRIPLE OBJECTIVES of LEAN
11
Lean is a set of different synchronized
methods and principles
1. shorter lead time(D) with
2. minimized cost( C) and
3. highest attainable quality (Q)
(3-in 1-TQM,TPM, JIT)
Q

C
The 4th new weapon is Flexibility (F) due to
customized & fluctuating production demands
12. Drivers of Lean 4.0
Increase in Variant Diversity
• Complexity of the production environment
• Future Challenges in manufacturing
Toyota Production System (TPS), Lean
Manufacturing
• Reduce waste in the value chain
• Enhance Customer Value & Continual improvement
Industry 4.0- Cyber Physical Systems
• Organise the Value Creation process
• Data Communication in real time
How the two strategies will support,
complement and integrate with each other
12
13. Concepts, Pillars & Principles of LEAN
13
Toyota Production System ( TPS)
•JIT & JIDOKA pillars
•5S & TPM foundation
Elimination of any type of waste
•aiming to supply the exact quantity of products
required by customers, in the right time and with
the high quality.
Dynamic process
Continuous Improvement Kaizen
Multidisciplinary management practices
Involvment of all employees
15. What are the Limitations of Lean?
15
Due to fixed manufacturing sequences
and slow responsiveness, associated
with increasing pressures from
customer expectations regarding
product variability, LM may not meet
the new needs, and its suitability for
future value chains can be limited.

18. CORE TECHNOLOGY of i4.0
•Internet of Things (IoT)
• the backbone of I4.0 which
allows a Worldwide Data
Communication in real time
and helps connect several
devices to the cloud
•Cyber-Physical-
Systems (CPS)
• hold the potential to reshape
our world with more
responsive, precise, reliable and
efficient systems, enabling a
revolution of "smart" devices
and systems from smart cars to
smart grids.

IT- OT INTEGRATION through IoT
20. The 3 levels of integration
1) Lean as a Prerequisite &
Lean as an enabler to 4.0
2) 4.0 as an enabler or
catalyst to augment Lean
and overcome its
limitations
3) LM & 4.0 together create
higher levels of
performance- in Quality,
Throughput time, Efficiency
and Flexible manufacturing

21. (1) How Lean Management as enabler towards I4.0
• Standardized, transparent, and
reproducible processes are of
fundamental significance for
introducing I4.0
• Decision-makers require LM
competence for considering
customer value and avoiding waste
• By reducing product and process
complexity, LM enables the
efficient and economic use of I4.0
tools
21
22. (2) Industry 4.0 Advances Lean Management
The increased flexibility through I4.0 helps to cope with
the rising complexity.
Moreover, I4.0 is promising to cope with a fluctuating
market demand superior to a leveled production in LM.
The economic production of goods in a lot size of one is a
way to enhance production economies beyond traditional
economies of scale.
