Stopwatch time studies involve observing operators performing tasks and recording the times taken to establish standard times. The key steps are to first analyze methods to establish efficient workflows, select appropriate operators, time task elements using techniques like continuous watches or snapback, determine the required number of observations statistically, and rate operators to adjust times to normal levels.
Work measurement involves establishing the time required to complete tasks. It follows three stages: analysis of the job into components, measurement of component times, and combining times. Measurement techniques include time study, where work is directly observed, and predetermined motion times, which don't rely on observation. Rating converts observed times to standard times by assessing worker performance levels. Allowances are added to account for fatigue and other factors to determine standard times. Choosing a technique considers the measurement purpose, detail needed, time available, and cost.
The document discusses various techniques used in method study, including:
1. Macro motion charts like operations process charts, flow process charts, multiple activity charts, and two-handed process charts that record operations, inspections, and worker activities.
2. Diagrams used in method study like flow diagrams and string diagrams that visually depict work processes and worker movements.
3. Micro motion study techniques like therbligs and simultaneous motion cycle charts that analyze fundamental hand motions.
4. Principles of motion study related to efficient human body use, workplace arrangement, and tool/equipment design.
5. Steps in time study including selecting work, breaking it into elements, measuring times, adjusting for performance,
Modul 1 process planning and standard time calculationAmalia Syafitri
The document discusses production systems and methods for calculating standard times. It introduces key concepts like production systems, Just-in-Time (JIT), seven types of waste, 5S, bills of material (BOM), operation process charts (OPC) and standard time. Standard time can be calculated directly using a stopwatch or indirectly using standard time data tables, curves or formulas based on historical direct measurements. Direct calculation involves uniformity and sufficiency tests while indirect uses motion time data from developed tables.
This document describes the process of conducting a time study to determine the standard time for a core-making operation. It involves breaking the job down into elements, directly observing and timing each element's performance, determining basic time and allowances, and calculating the overall standard time. Standard time accounts for factors like observed time, ratings, relaxation, fatigue, and contingencies. The example time study observed and recorded the timing of elements of a core-making job like filling a core box with sand, pressing it down, and transporting the completed core. Standard time was then set for each element and summed to establish the total standard time per cycle.
Time and motion studies are a technique used to analyze jobs by recording the times taken to complete individual tasks. This allows for determining the most efficient way to perform tasks and setting productivity standards. They can be implemented in manufacturing, offices, retail stores, and other industries. Benefits include improving productivity, identifying unnecessary activities, balancing workloads, and making recommendations to enhance efficiency. Potential issues include observers lacking competence and workers not fully cooperating with studies. Textile mills commonly use time and motion studies for processes like spinning, warping, weaving, and dyeing to optimize operations.
The document discusses different approaches to project planning and lean construction methods. It compares 1st planners who impose schedules versus last planners who adjust plans based on conditions. Lean construction relies on pull systems and look-ahead planning. Key conversations around collaborative programming, make-ready tasks, production planning, and monitoring production help manage workflow. Value engineering techniques can further improve processes.

This document discusses Poka Yoke and Jidoka, two Lean Manufacturing concepts. Poka Yoke refers to mistake-proofing methods that help avoid errors in work processes. Examples given include ensuring required parts are inserted in the correct order. Jidoka means automation with human touch, where machines stop immediately when a problem is detected to identify the root cause. Both aim to produce quality products and eliminate waste through continuous improvement of processes.
Jidoka refers to the Japanese manufacturing principle of "autonomation", which aims to detect and address defects at their source. It incorporates both automated defect detection mechanisms that stop production, as well as empowering workers to manually stop lines when issues arise. For example, at Toyota assembly lines will automatically stop if a worker takes too long on a step, focusing problem-solving efforts. Jidoka is one of the two pillars of the Toyota Production System, along with just-in-time production, and allows for both high quality and efficiency.
The document discusses different types of production methods:
1) Intermittent manufacturing includes jobbing and batch production where goods are made to fulfill specific orders or in limited batches rather than continuously for stock.
2) Continuous manufacturing includes mass, process, and assembly where items are produced continuously for stock such as foods, cars, and toothpaste through assembly lines and production processes.
3) Examples are given for each type of production method along with brief descriptions of common production steps.

Lean - PPT (Lean manufacturing and six sigma)Blankdevil
Lean manufacturing is a methodology that focuses on minimizing waste within manufacturing systems while simultaneously maximizing productivity. Waste is seen as anything that customers do not believe adds value and are not willing to pay for. Some of the benefits of lean manufacturing can include reduced lead times, reduced operating costs and improved product quality.
Lean manufacturing, also known as lean production, or lean, is a practice that organizations from numerous fields can enable. Some well-known companies that use lean include Toyota, Intel, John Deere and Nike. The approach is based on the Toyota Production System and is still used by that company, as well as myriad others. Companies that use enterprise resource planning (ERP) can also benefit from using a lean production system.
Lean manufacturing is based on a number of specific principles, such as Kaizen, or continuous improvement.
Lean manufacturing was introduced to the Western world via the 1990 publication of The Machine That Changed the World, which was based on an MIT study into the future of the automobile detailed by Toyota's lean production system. Since that time, lean principles have profoundly influenced manufacturing concepts throughout the world, as well as industries outside of manufacturing, including healthcare, software development and service industries.
5 principles of lean manufacturing
A widely referenced book, Lean Thinking: Banish Waste and Create Wealth in Your Corporation, which was published in 1996, laid out five principles of lean, which many in the field reference as core principles. Value is created by the producer, but it is defined by the customer. Companies need to understand the value the customer places on their products and services, which, in turn, can help them determine how much money the customer is willing to pay.
The company must strive to eliminate waste and cost from its business processes so that the customer's optimal price can be achieved -- at the highest profit to the company.
2. Map the value stream. This principle involves recording and analyzing the flow of information or materials required to produce a specific product or service with the intent of identifying waste and methods of improvement. Value stream mapping encompasses the product's entire lifecycle, from raw materials through to disposal.
Companies must examine each stage of the cycle for waste. Anything that does not add value must be eliminated. Lean thinking recommends supply chain alignment as part of this effort.
3. Create flow. Eliminate functional barriers and identify ways to improve lead time. This aids in ensuring the processes are smooth from the time an order is received through to delivery. Flow is critical to the elimination of waste. Lean manufacturing relies on preventing interruptions in the production process and enabling a harmonized and integrated set of processes in which activities move in a constant stream.ean manufacturing requires a rel
This document discusses Just-in-Time (JIT) systems and Lean manufacturing concepts. It defines JIT as a system designed to produce output with minimum lead time and lowest cost by eliminating waste and variance. The objectives of JIT are to produce only what customers want, when they want it, with perfect quality and minimal lead time. Key JIT principles include creating flow production, establishing takt time, and building pull through kanban systems. Variance reduction, kaizen events, and applying JIT concepts to services are also covered.
Lean manufacturing aims to eliminate waste in production processes through continuous improvement efforts. It focuses on minimizing inventory levels and non-value adding activities to reduce costs and lead times. Toyota pioneered this approach after World War 2 to rebuild efficiently without large economies of scale. Implementing lean principles like just-in-time production and cellular manufacturing allowed Toyota to dramatically reduce production cycle times and outcompete major automakers. A chemical company also successfully applied lean tools to halve inventory levels and cut order fulfillment times from 20 to 5 minutes. Lean techniques organize work areas, maintain equipment, and pull work through production cells to optimize flow.
This document provides an introduction to Just-in-Time (JIT) and Lean operations principles. It discusses that JIT aims to produce the right part at the right time with no waste. Key aspects of JIT include eliminating waste, reducing variability, and improving throughput. Specific tactics covered include implementing the 5S methodology, using kanban systems for pull production, establishing JIT partnerships with suppliers, and focusing on small lot sizes, reduced set-up times and lead times to minimize inventory levels. The document also contrasts JIT with Lean operations and discusses approaches for implementing JIT and Lean principles in both manufacturing and service industries.
This document discusses key concepts in production management. It defines production management as planning and regulating operations that transform materials into finished products. The 5 P's of production management are products, plant, process, programs, and people. Objectives include producing the right quality and quantity on time and within budget. Production planning and control is a tool to achieve objectives by directing resources based on demand and schedules. Different types of production discussed are batch, jobbing, project, mass/flow, and process production. Productivity is defined as the ratio of output to input, and factors that impact productivity are also outlined.
Just-in-time manufacturing is a production philosophy that aims to avoid waste by only producing items as they are needed. It evolved in Japan after WWII to reduce inventory costs and improve quality. Key principles include total quality management, pull-based production, close supplier relationships, and minimizing waste and inventory. Toyota is cited as pioneering JIT through practices like communicating demand to suppliers 20 days in advance and receiving over 2 million improvement proposals from employees in 1986. Benefits include lower costs and higher quality, while risks include lack of flexibility and reliance on suppliers.
This document provides an overview of just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing. It discusses the history and objectives of JIT, the eight types of waste in manufacturing, and the three parts of JIT - purchasing, manufacturing, and quality management. Key aspects of JIT covered include production management, supplier management, inventory management, and human resource management. The document also compares traditional manufacturing systems to JIT systems and discusses how management accounting must adapt to support JIT goals.
- Just-in-Time (JIT) and Total Quality Control (TQC) aim to improve efficiency and quality by reducing waste. JIT exposes problems while TQC eliminates constraints.
- JIT uses a pull system, small batch sizes, continuous flow, and kanban cards to minimize inventory and response times. TQC follows the plan-do-check-act cycle to continuously improve processes.
- The seven types of waste include overproduction, waiting time, transportation, inventory, unnecessary motion, defects, and excess processing. JIT and TQC work together to maximize customer value while using resources efficiently.
Just In Time and Lean Operation Chapter PresentationSINGHZEE
This document provides an overview of lean operations and just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing. It discusses that JIT aims to produce goods with minimum lead time and lowest cost by eliminating waste. Toyota popularized JIT techniques like reducing setup times and implementing kanban systems. Key aspects of JIT include eliminating waste, reducing variability, and improving throughput by pulling materials based on demand. JIT requires close supplier partnerships and scheduling to achieve small lot sizes and low inventories. The document outlines tactics to implement JIT principles in both manufacturing and service industries.
Just-in-Time (JIT) manufacturing is a philosophy developed by Toyota to eliminate waste and continuously improve productivity. It aims to reduce inventory costs by producing and delivering only what is needed for production. Taiichi Ohno at Toyota first implemented JIT in 1950. By reducing setup times and minimizing inventory, JIT strives to improve return on investment. General Electric and other companies adopted JIT principles in the 1980s under different names. JIT goals include eliminating disruptions, increasing flexibility and productivity, and delivering what customers want when they want it at lowest cost. Key steps involve introducing optimized production speeds, reducing stock to zero inventory, and designing plants and processes to avoid stoppages.
The document discusses the implementation of lean manufacturing principles at a Toyota assembly line paint shop. It aims to identify non-value adding activities and reduce production lead time. Major tasks involved layout analysis and identifying waste. Initiatives like standard work sheets, warmer water, permanent masks, and improved drying ovens reduced cycle time from 9688 to 240 minutes. A safety trolley was also designed to reduce risk. Overall, lean principles helped eliminate waste and improve efficiency.
Lean manufacturing is a way to eliminate waste and improve efficiency. It focuses on minimizing muda, or waste, including excess inventory, unnecessary motion, defects, and overproduction. Lean originated from the Toyota Production System, which aimed to reduce costs through practices like just-in-time production and continuous improvement. The key aspects of lean are identifying value-added steps and removing waste, ensuring smooth workflow, using pull systems between processes, and engaging employees in continuous improvement.
This document provides an overview of Just-In-Time (JIT) manufacturing. It defines JIT as a philosophy involving integrated procedures to achieve high production volume using minimal inventories. JIT represents a pull-type system where goods and services are performed as needed. The goals of JIT are to achieve a smooth, rapid flow and eliminate waste like excess inventory. Key principles include total quality management, production management focusing on small lot sizes and flexibility, supplier management through long-term relationships, and inventory management with minimal safety stock. Benefits include increased equipment utilization and reduced costs from less scrap, space, and setup times.
This document discusses the elimination of wastes. It identifies the seven main types of wastes as transportation, inventory, motion, waiting, overprocessing, overproduction, and defects. It explains how lean operations focus on creating value for customers while eliminating wastes through techniques like just-in-time production and kanban systems that allow production to match customer demand and identify workflow issues. The overall goal is to improve efficiency and reduce costs by eliminating unnecessary activities that do not create value.
SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Die) is a lean manufacturing technique aimed at reducing changeover times between the production of different products or product variants on a machine. The basic principles of SMED involve identifying internal and external changeover tasks, analyzing each task's purpose, and focusing on low-cost solutions to eliminate changeover time. The history of SMED began in Japan at Toyota in the 1950s when consultant Shigeo Shingo helped reduce changeover times for body molding from 2-8 hours to under 10 minutes. Implementing SMED involves 5 phases - defining the project, establishing a baseline, separating external and internal work, transforming internal work externally, and eliminating all waste from the changeover process.
This document provides an introduction to Lean principles, methodology, tools and terminology. It discusses what Lean is, its history and key principles. Lean is a way to pursue value and eliminate waste from daily processes. This results in lower costs, reduced cycle times, fewer defects, improved customer satisfaction and employee morale. The document outlines various Lean concepts and tools, including the eight wastes, 5S, visual management, Kaizen (continuous improvement), standard work and mistake-proofing. It emphasizes identifying value, mapping value streams, establishing flow and pull, and seeking perfection through eliminating waste.
This document provides an overview of inventory management, modern manufacturing concepts, and production planning techniques. It discusses total productive maintenance (TPM), just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing, kanban systems, and material requirements planning (MRP). TPM aims to optimize equipment effectiveness through autonomous maintenance by all employees. JIT focuses on continuous flow and reducing waste through techniques like cellular layout, setup time reduction, pull-based replenishment, and supplier coordination. Kanban uses visual signals to trigger replenishment in pull-based systems. MRP helps plan dependent demand for components based on a bill of materials, inventory levels, and a master production schedule.
This document provides an overview of just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing. It describes JIT as a philosophy involving minimal inventories and goods that move through the system as needed. The document outlines the history and evolution of JIT in Japan after World War II. It also discusses the seven types of waste in manufacturing that JIT aims to eliminate and lists some key principles of JIT including total quality management, pull-based production, and inventory management with the goal of zero inventory. The document concludes by discussing advantages like reduced waste and disadvantages like risk from supply disruptions of implementing JIT manufacturing.
This document provides an overview of just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing. It discusses that JIT is a philosophy involving minimal inventories and goods moving through the system as needed. The document notes that JIT evolved in Japan after World War II to address diminishing market share. Key aspects of JIT discussed include the 7 wastes, pull vs push systems, supplier management, and advantages like quality, flexibility and reduced waste while disadvantages include time and risk from supply issues. Examples of JIT for goods include Toyota and for services include McDonald's cooking only to order.
Just-in-time (JIT) is an inventory strategy that aims to increase efficiency and reduce waste by receiving goods only as needed in the production process. This decreases inventory costs. JIT seeks to eliminate all non-value adding activities by providing the right part at the right place and time. It originated in post-World War II Japan to address Toyota's declining market share. Key principles include total quality management, production management, supplier management and inventory management. The goal of a JIT system is to produce only what customers want, when they need it, with high quality and minimal waste.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

3. Just In Time
• Developed By Kiichiro
Toyoda
• This Is a Technique From
TQM Process
• It is a waste control Method
Not A Inventory Control
Technique
• Strives for reduced Setup
time and Small Lot sizes
• Includes Zero defect,
worker centric quality
control
4. Advantages Of JIT
1. Investment is reduced
2.Quality is Improved
3. Reduces the non-value added activities,
hence reduces overall process time
4. Administrative efficiency
5. Reduction in Buffer Inventories
5. Disadvantages Of JIT
• There is little room for mistakes as minimal stock
is kept for re-working faulty product
• Production is very reliant on suppliers and if
stock is not delivered on time, the whole
production schedule can be delayed
• There is no spare finished product available to
meet unexpected orders, because all product is
made to meet actual orders.
8. Kanban
• Developed By Taiichi Ohno at TOYOTA
• Kanban cards-signals the need for
movement of materials
• A Red Card Lying in an empty part
conveys that more parts are needed
• Three Bin System
10. Jidoka
The term JIDOKA is simply applied to a machine
that moves on its own
Jidoka refers to "automation with a human
touch," as opposed to a machine that simply
moves under the monitoring and supervision of
an operator
Since the loom stops when a problem
arises, no defective products are
produced.
11. Pokayoke
The concept was formalized and adopted
by Shigeo Shingo as part of the Toyota
production System
A simple distraction to worker can lead to
a work being done wrong
The basic principle of Pokayoke is
developing techniques which makes it
difficult for people to make mistakes.
12. Case Study
• Larry Ficarra an engineer with Varian Ion Implant
Systems, was assembling a vacuum chamber for a
10,000-component particle accelerator used in
microprocessor production.
• A guide pin near an O-ring surface was supposed to go
into a hole to ensure proper alignment of critical
components. The part with the pin was so bulky it
required a little juggling before the pin found the hole.
• Everything seemed to be working well, but on start up,
the critical assembly would not hold a vacuum.
13. Case Study
• Ficarra discovered that while trying to get the pin into the
hole, he had inadvertently scratched the O-ring surface
which prevented the chamber from holding a vacuum.
• He discovered that Japanese refer to mistake proofing
as poka-yoke and think of it as their first defense against
defects.
• The pin may contact the elastomer O-ring, but the
complaint O-ring resists damage.
• Ficarra says the scratched –surface error has not
happened since.
14. KAIZEN
• Kai - to modify or change
• Zen - to think about making good or better
• Masaaki Imai: Kaizen - “a means of
continuing improvements in personal life,
home life, social life, and working life”
• Focus on gradual and continuous
improvement
15. PDCA CYCLE
• In the beginning, any new workplace is unstable.
• PDCA is followed during improvement activities in management
• The Plan-Do-Check -Act is the first step in the kaizen process.
• Plan: Establish a target for improvement and the way to achieve the
required result after improvement
• Do: Implement the plan
• Check: Determine whether the implementation is still on track and is
on its course to bring about the desired improvement
•
• Act: perform and standardize the new procedures to eliminate reversal
of the improvement process.
16. Kaizen Case Study
• Nissan introduced Welding Robots in
1973
• After Implementation of kaizen their
work time per unit had been cut by 60
percent and increased overall
production efficiency by 20 percent
• It was achieved through a series of
kaizen programs that cut time by as
little as half a second
17. Gemba Kaizen
• Gemba means work place
• Gemba-kaizen is a process of
continuous improvement at workplace
• The emphasis is on improvement on
shop floor
• This can be achieved only if Group
works in good Coordination.
18.
19. Material Requirement
Planning
• Material requirements planning (MRP) is a
production planning and inventory control
system used to manage manufacturing
processes. Most MRP systems are
software-based.
21. Inputs Of MRP
• Master Scheduling
• Bill Of Materials
• Inventory Records
22. Bill Of Material
• Structured list of all the materials
required for producing finished product
• On the basis of production requirement
Bill Of Material extrapolates the
requirement for raw materials and
components
24. Advantages Of MRP
1. Better response to customer orders
2. Faster response to market changes
3. Improved utilization of facilities and
labor
4. Reduced inventory levels
25. Problems In MRP
Implementation
• Need of high level of Discipline
• No manual Intervention is allowed
• The procedures in the company have to
be clear
• Cost of software is high
26. Hubbell Lighting Case Study
• Manufactures Industrial Lighting
Products
• Good-Quality Products
• Poor at Meeting Due Dates
• Work is specialized for Each customer
• Complex Products
27. Hubbell Lighting Case Study
Before MRP
Implementation
• Less Than 75% of
Orders completed on
time
After MRP
Implementation
• 97% of orders
completed on time
• 2% of orders
completed with 1 or
2 days after due
date
28. Conclusion
MRP focuses on the future, while JIT does not
provide for forward-thinking.
The JIT system is a dynamically linked system,
that is better applied for short lead times, while
MRP is not linked, and is suited for long lead
times.
The JIT system enhances the value of
processes, MRP will give you more control

A real business example: Dell Computer CorporationIn this company an order for a customized personal computer that comes in over the internet at 9 am, can be on a delivery truck to the customer by 9 p.m. In addition, Dell’s low cost production system allows it to under price its rivals by 10% to 15%. How does the company’s just in time system deliver lower costs? While machines from Compaq and IBM can languish on dealer shelves for two months Dell does not start ordering components and assembling computers until an order is booked. By ordering right before assembly, Dell figures it s parts, on average, are 60 days newer than those in an IBM or Compaq machine. That can translate into a 6% profit advantage in components alone.
Just-in-time manufacturing system is vulnerable to unexpected disruptions in supply chain. A production line can quickly come to a halt if essential parts are unavailable. Toyota, the developer of JIT, found this out the hard way. One Saturday, a fire at Aisin Seiki Company’s plant stopped the delivery of all break parts to Toyota. By Tuesday, Toyota had to close down all of its Japanese assembly line. By the time the supply of break parts had been restored, Toyota had lost an estimated $15 billion in sales.
This diagram shows four successive runs with learning from each run and improvements applied before the next. Run 1 illustrates the original situation. Run 2 shows what would happen if more changeovers were included. Run 3 shows the impact of the improvements in changeover times that come from doing more of them and building learning into their execution. Run 4 shows how these improvements can get you back to the same production time but now with more flexibility in production capacity. Run N (not illustrated) would have changeovers that take 1.5 minutes (97% reduction) and whole shift time reduced from 420 minutes to 368 minutes a productivity improvement of 12%
Plan to improve your operations first by finding out what things are going wrong (that is identify the problems faced), and come up with ideas for solving these problems.Do changes designed to solve the problems on a small or experimental scale first. This minimises disruption to routine activity while testing whether the changes will work or not.Check whether the small scale or experimental changes are achieving the desired result or not. Also, continuously Check nominated key activities (regardless of any experimentation going on) to ensure that you know what the quality of the output is at all times to identify any new problems when they crop up.Act to implement changes on a larger scale if the experiment is successful. This means making the changes a routine part of your activity.
An example of kaizen's effectiveness is Nissan's experience with welding robots. First introduced in 1973, within a decade their use had cut work time per unit by 60 percent and increased overall production efficiency by 20 percent. These gains were achieved through a series of kaizen programs that searched out improvements that cut time by as little as half a second. The programs, initiated within three to six months of one another, formed a staircase, each step occasioning a brief period of stability before the next rose, inexpensively, a little above it.The logic of kaizen is that breakthroughs result not from massive reorganizations or large-scale investment projects but from the cumulative effects of successive incremental improvements.
An MRP system is intended to simultaneously meet three objectives: Ensure materials are available for production and products are available for delivery to customers. Improve plant operating Efficiency Plan manufacturing activities, delivery schedules and purchasing activities.
A bill of materials (BoM) is a list of the parts or components that are required to build a product. The BoM provides the manufacturer's part number (MPN) and the quantity needed for each component.At its most complex, a BoM is a multi-level document that provides build data for multiple sub-assemblies (products within products) and includes for each item: part number, approved manufacturers list (AML), mechanical characteristics and a whole range of component descriptors.
MRP takes forecasts for end product demand into account. In an environment in which substantial variation of sales are anticipatedMRP has a substantial advantageJIT reduces inventories to a minimum. In addition to reducing inventory cost, there are substantial side benefits, such as improvement in quality and plant efficiency
