This document discusses lean manufacturing. It defines lean manufacturing as a process to minimize waste and maximize production, originating from Toyota's production system. The document lists the eight types of waste in manufacturing and outlines seven lean principles, tools, and techniques. Finally, it presents the five steps of the lean manufacturing cycle, which are to identify value, map the value stream, create flow, establish pull, and strive for perfection.

Lean Manufacturing: 8 Types of waste
7 Principles, Tools, Techniques to Lean
Manufacturing
5 Steps to Lean Manufacturing Cycle
3. About Lean Manufacturing
Lean Manufacturing or going lean
refers to a series of methods,
philosophies and tools to minimize
waste in our business and maximize
production. This process is
originated from Toyota Production
System.
4. Why/Essence of Lean
Manufacturing ?
It serves as a pathway to profitability and
sustainability in an organization
Needs to review process to identify
wastes in its process chain
Inability to identify wastes or failure to
address them can have cost implication
A wasteful and costly process hinders
market competiveness of an organization
By nature of operations, beaucracy can
build up along the way
6. 7 Lean Manufacturing Principles,
tools, and techniques
1. Defects: Not getting the process right at the first time
e.g. Pillows, Duvets, Bed sheets
2. Overproduction: A situation in which materials are
utilized beyond the immediate needs.
3. Non-utilized talent: it involves poor management of
employees to bring out the value and have great effect on their
bottom lines
4. Inventory: the act of holding down money or physical
goods (similar to overproduction)
7. 7 Lean Manufacturing
Principles, tools, and
techniques
1. Kaizen: Continuous Improvement(Employees bringing
new ideas).
2. Minimized Wastes Areas: to reduce waste
for increased productivity and efficiency. These includes:
Organized
Tidiness or Orderliness
Clean
Standardize
Sustain: always constantly maintain and reinforced
the four(4) previous steps
8. Principles of Lean
Manufacturing cont’d
3. Kaban (Eliminating Inventory Related Wastes):
it helps to eliminate inventory and overpopulation.
4. Just In Time: by producing a product to
specification as at to how and when the customer
wants it, improves inventory cost, reduces space,
increases productivity.
5. Poka-Yoke(mistake proofing for Quality
Product) it is one of the principles to make sure your
lean process produces quality production.
9. 5 Steps of Lean Manufacturing
Cycle
Identify Value: thinking about what the customer deem
valuable
Map the value stream: Have a layout that eliminates
all the non-value adding steps
Create flow: streamline in a tight sequence to provide
the end customer with as much as quickly possible
Establish Pull- Create a pull demand for customers to
seek for your products than you pushing it on them
Strive for Perfection: continuous improvement to
eliminates waste by documenting and standardizing the
processes that generate to success.
