Lean Manufacturing
Fundamental Principle of Lean Manufacturing



   Any activity or action which does
   not add value to the product is a
     form of waste and must be
       eliminated or minimized.
Definition of Value -Added
Value is added any time the product is physically
changed towards what the customer is intending
to purchase.

Value is also added when a service is provided
for which the customer is willing to pay (i.e.
design, engineering, etc.).

If we are not adding value, we are adding cost or
waste.

         90% of lead time is non-value added!
Waste or Opportunities for
            Improvement
Adds no value
Adds only cost and
time
Symptom rather than
cause
Points to problems in
value stream and
process
Need to address
causes
The EIGHT Wastes

Inventory (more than one piece flow)
Overproduction (more or sooner than needed)
Correction (inspection and rework)
Material Movement
Waiting
Motion
Non-Value Added Processing
Underutilized People
FLOW & PULL

Make the value-creating steps flow
Produce only what is needed
If a process is not completed correctly the first
time, it does not move down the line for
additional work
Eliminate re-work
Value Stream

The value stream is the set of all the
specific actions required to bring a
specific product (good or service) through
the critical management tasks of any
business:
         Information Management
         Transformation
Value Stream Map
              An Assessment Tool


The value stream map follows the order path from
beginning to end and shows a visual
representation of every process in the order and
information flows

Shows how the shop floor or office currently
operates

Develops the foundation for the future state

 Future state           “blueprint”
   drawing
                    Begin by evaluating Current State

                    1st iteration assumes existing steps & equipment
  plan and          Can move equipment, combine operations,
implementation      reduce scrap, etc.
Future State Questions
  What is the takt time?
  Will we build to shipping or to a supermarket?
  Where can we use continuous flow? (Single Piece vs Batch)
  Where do we have to use supermarket pull system?
  At what single point in the production chain do we trigger
  production?
  How do we level the production mix at the pacemaker
  process?

SUPPORTING IMPROVEMENTS
  What process improvements will be necessary?
  (e.g. uptime, changeover, training)
TAKT Time



Synchronizes pace of assembly
   to match pace of sales.

Rate for assembling a product
      based on sales rate.




          TAKT = Effective Working Time per Shift
                 Customer Requirement per Shift
Lean Manufacturing
       Concepts & Techniques

Flow: Setup Reduction, Cellular
Manufacturing, Batch Size Reduction,
Visual Workplace, Layout

Pull: Kanban Systems, Supply Chain
Management, Point of Use

    Why Use VSM? Identifyareas for lean improvements Train team members in use of lean concepts Integrated lean implementation plan Long term planning
  • 3.
    What We’ll Cover Whatis VSM? Basic Lean Concepts Developing Value Stream Maps: Current & Future State Implementing VSMs Using VSMs
  • 4.
    Lean Manufacturing Fundamental Principleof Lean Manufacturing Any activity or action which does not add value to the product is a form of waste and must be eliminated or minimized.
  • 5.
    Definition of Value-Added Value is added any time the product is physically changed towards what the customer is intending to purchase. Value is also added when a service is provided for which the customer is willing to pay (i.e. design, engineering, etc.). If we are not adding value, we are adding cost or waste. 90% of lead time is non-value added!
  • 6.
    Waste or Opportunitiesfor Improvement Adds no value Adds only cost and time Symptom rather than cause Points to problems in value stream and process Need to address causes
  • 7.
    The EIGHT Wastes Inventory(more than one piece flow) Overproduction (more or sooner than needed) Correction (inspection and rework) Material Movement Waiting Motion Non-Value Added Processing Underutilized People
  • 8.
    FLOW & PULL Makethe value-creating steps flow Produce only what is needed If a process is not completed correctly the first time, it does not move down the line for additional work Eliminate re-work
  • 9.
    Value Stream The valuestream is the set of all the specific actions required to bring a specific product (good or service) through the critical management tasks of any business: Information Management Transformation

    Value Stream Map An Assessment Tool The value stream map follows the order path from beginning to end and shows a visual representation of every process in the order and information flows Shows how the shop floor or office currently operates Develops the foundation for the future state

    Who Develops theVSM? Team Approach? Better understanding of process & opportunities Provides training in Lean Concepts Feel ownership of VSMs Exchange of ideas More open discussion Takes more time
  • 14.
    Who Develops theVSM? Engineer Collects Data and Drafts VSM? Takes less time Can be done with Management Team Can train on lean concepts & get buy in Less ownership by team and operators Less exchange of ideas within the company
  • 15.
    Who Develops theVSM? Depends on the company culture and preference How much time can be devoted? Team Approach is most effective!
  • 16.
    What Tools toUse to Make the VSM? Use Excel or Visio? Hand draw? Use AUTOCAD?
  • 17.
    What Tools toUse to Make the VSM? Use Excel or Visio • Requires program knowledge • Easy to change • Can use templates • Easy to share & Hand drawn e-mail • Quick • Easy to present • Easy for teams • Difficult to change & copy • Harder to present Use AUTOCAD? FORGET IT!

    Future State Map Designing a Lean Flow Product family You always need a future state! Complete 75% & Keep Updating Current state drawing Consider Material & Information flows Foundation for your Work Plan - like a Future state “blueprint” drawing Begin by evaluating Current State 1st iteration assumes existing steps & equipment plan and Can move equipment, combine operations, implementation reduce scrap, etc.
  • 22.
    Future State Questions What is the takt time? Will we build to shipping or to a supermarket? Where can we use continuous flow? (Single Piece vs Batch) Where do we have to use supermarket pull system? At what single point in the production chain do we trigger production? How do we level the production mix at the pacemaker process? SUPPORTING IMPROVEMENTS What process improvements will be necessary? (e.g. uptime, changeover, training)
