Productivity Improvement using Lean Manufacturing '“ A Case Study at Muththam...ijtsrd
At the present scenario, the Lean Manufacturing has become a worldwide phenomenon. A large number of organizations are following Lean technologies and experiencing vast improvement in quality, production, customer service and profitability. Muththamizh industries in Palani is a manufacturing company that manufactures variety of agricultural oriented machines. In this work to adopt the Lean manufacturing concept in this industry by using Value Stream Mapping (VSM) technique and to reduce the wastes such as long lead time, defects, material waste etc. Our project focuses on creating current and future state value stream maps which, when implemented will decrease the current lead time of manufacturing thereby improving the productivity of industrial shop floor. From their products, the team chose Chaff cutter machine as a product family and worked on them. From the Current Value Stream Map created the lead time for the product is found to be 3 to 3.34 days right from the processing of raw materials till the product is ready to be shipped. From the map created, various stages that contains bottlenecks in production were clearly identified and remedial measures were taken to eliminate those bottlenecks. Various lean tools such as Kaizen Bursts, 5S and other methods to eliminate the wastes were identified and implemented effectively. After remedial measures were adopted the data is tracked again and Future Value Stream Map is drawn. From the map it was clear that the lead time for the product was reduced to a certain extent of up to 4 hours. Therefore our primary goal of the object was achieved by adopting lean techniques and the productivity and efficiency of the organization was increased. G. Saravanan | R. Karthikeyan | S.

Implementing 5 s methodology as tool for improving efficiencyLaukik Raut
The Moto of this paper is to implement 5-s
Methodology in the Bajaj steels industries limited. This
paper contains 5-s action plan for the company. It aims at
increasing the productivity, reduction in the standard
production time, reduce wastage of resources and optimize
working procedure, proper work area management and
safety. The action plan contains various tools such as Line
of Balance Graph (LOB), Critical Ratio Scheduling (CRS),
symbols and bar graphs that will help the company in
understanding the plan in better way. Further, it shows
through inspection and audit that proper implementation of
5-s can lead to increase in productivity by 97 percent.

The Impact of Lean Production on the Cycle Time: A Case Study of a Welding As...ijsrd.com
The growing global competition is forcing the organisations to reduce the cost for increasing the profit. Lean manufacturing is a powerful tool for attaining this. The history of lean manufacturing starts from the craft production of 1900's. It is evolved through the contributions of F.W. Taylor, Henry Ford, Eiji Toyoda & Taiichi Ohno. The main concept of the lean manufacturing is the reduction in cost by eliminating waste. However, not all lean implementations have produced such results. In this study, a critical examination of lean manufacturing implementation experience at the welding department of a medium size industry located in Kerala, India. . Cycle time reduction is an important way by eliminating or reducing non-value-added activities. To reduce the overall cycle time of manufacturing, the cycle time of each sub-assembly needs to be reduced. Reducing cycle time will have a significant impact on a company's bottom line when implemented. The outcome of this study leads to substantial reduction in cycle time, reduced defects, better utilization of human resource and machines, and reduced cost of maintenance. It has been proved and validated by an empirical relation. The cause and effect diagram is used for analysing the cycle time reduction. The Quality control chart is also used. The improved return on investment (ROI) and reduction in cycle time shows the feasibility. The data for this study were obtained through interviews, Questionnaire survey and archival sources.
Lean manufacturing is a systematic method for waste minimization ("Muda") within a manufacturing system without sacrificing productivity.http://www.vpresentationslides.com/lean-manufacturing-ppt/
