Exercise Readiness Assessment Test A.K.A. RAT AS A INDIVIDUAL, look at the detailed requirements for a production process. We will look at the Case Study and Key holder. What is the operation time for the Key holder at each workstation in a production system? How is this time related to the time required to produce a key holder? What is the difference between production time and setup time? Open Book / Open Notes 9/18/2018
Exercise Readiness Assessment Test A.K.A. RAT AS A TEAM, take 3 minutes to provide a written to answer the following questions: Did all operations require the same time? What is best operation to focus attention of for the key holder? Why? Closed Book / Closed Notes 9/18/2018
Objectives To apply the principles of flow to a complex manufacturing system To design the layout of process, product and cellular manufacturing systems To implement a pull system in a manufacturing environment To analyze efficiencies of reduced batch sizes The flow of this presentation is some basic background of factory flow and layout. The advantages of the basic layout are presented and then some characteristics of these systems are provided, I.e., you can not “pull” with a process layout. Cells simplify things by reducing the problem size. There is no detail on how to form cells or organize production control. These will come later. 9/18/2018
Exercise (3 – 5 minutes) Individually answer the following questions What percent of time does a part spend having “value added” to it while the part is on the shop floor? What are the top 5 causes of “non-value added” times? 9/18/2018
Quick Change Over QCO is used to: Reduce time needed to change over from one set-up to another. Improve first time capability. Improve repeatability of change over operations 9/18/2018
Total Productive Maintenance TPM is a structured approach to maintaining equipment and insuring stable manufacturing processes. Everybody gets involved. 9/18/2018

Types of Manufacturing Layout Process Layout Product Layout Cellular Layout 9/18/2018
FUNCTIONAL LAYOUTS ARE INEFFICIENT Lathe Milling Drilling L L M M D D D D L L M M Grinding L L M M G G Assembly L L G G A A Receiving and Shipping A G G A PROCESS-TYPE LAYOUT 9/18/2018
Process Layout Characteristics Advantages Deep knowledge of the process Common tooling and fixtures Most Flexible -- can produce many different part types Disadvantages Spaghetti flow -- everything gets all tangled up (can not “pull” materials with this layout) Lots of in-process materials Hard to control inter-department activities Can be difficult to automate 9/18/2018

Evidence of Progress toward Lean Smaller lot sizes Increased capacity / throughput Higher inventory turns More available floor space Improved workplace organization Improved quality : reduced scrap / re-work Reduced inventories : raw, WIP, FG Reduced lead times Greater gross margin Improved participation & morale 9/18/2018
Lean Mfg Implementation Timeline LMA – 6 to 12 weeks (Prototype line/experimentation?) Management commitment – 4 to 6 months Prep for implementation – 6 to 8 months Model line development – 6 months to 1 year Program expansion – 1 to 3 yrs Beginnings of the ‘Lean Enterprise’ – 3 to 5 yrs 9/18/2018
Price Increase Bigger Profit Cost + Profit = Price Some Profit 3 Price to Sell 1 2 3 Bigger Profit 2 Some Profit Cost to Produce 1 Show left hand side first, 1. Determine Cost to produce an item 2. Add profit you want 3. This gives you Price to the customer If you want to increase your profit under this system, how do you do it? --->>> Raise the price to the customer. reveal right hand side This is what most companies operated in the 60’s and 70’s, just pass the cost along to the customer. But as the markets get more and more competitive, do you think this strategy will still work?? NO!! So if Cascade wants to increase their profits now a days, how could they do it?? Discussion Transition to next slide...... Cost + Profit = Price 9/18/2018
Cost Reduction Bigger Profit Price - Cost = Profit Some Profit Price to Sell 1 1 Some Profit 3 Bigger Profit 3 Cost to Produce 2 2 Show left hand side first, 1. Determine Price customer is willing to pay 2. Subtract the Cost to produce an item 3. This leaves your profit Under this system if you want to increase your profit, how do you do it? ---->>> Lower Cost. How do you suppose you lower Cost?? Elimination of Non-Value Added Activity. Elimination of Waste !! What exactly is waste? Discussion Price - Cost = Profit 9/18/2018
What value is Added by: Storing Counting Sorting Moving Acknowledgments Invoices What value is Added by: Expediting Rework Inspecting Discussion None of these activities adds Value. Some are important or necessary, but None add value. Loading / Unloading Scrap Returns to Suppliers Receiving Report Repackaging 9/18/2018

Just in Time Manufacturing Produce according to customer demands: What is needed When it is needed In the quantity it is needed Utilize - Continuous flow processing - Pull system 9/18/2018
Push System Example: MRP Lot arrival triggers production Material Information MRP Schedule triggers Production Example: MRP 9/18/2018
Pull Systems Material Withdrawal of material triggers production Information Production schedule is issued only to final assembly line. Production schedule for each of the preceding process is determined by transfer of parts Parts are pulled through the system from the end of the line to the start 9/18/2018
Parts are produced only when needed (or just in time) less delay or lead time, lower inventory KANBAN - is the manual system to implement the pull system JIT - refers to the whole system, the material flow and management philosophy 9/18/2018
JIT Systems Combines both the production control component and a management philosophy 4 basic tenets for the success of JIT Elimination of waste Employee Involvement Supplier Participation Total Quality Management 9/18/2018
Kanban Manual information system to control production. Material transportation, and inventory Literally means “visible record” or card In the the broad sense it is a communication signal from a downstream process (customer) to a upstream process (producer) 9/18/2018
Kinds of Kanban Two most common kanbans production kanbans (P- Kanban) authorizes a process to produce a fixed amount of product 9/18/2018
Kanban continued Transportation kanban (T- Kanban) authorizes transporting a fixed amount of product downstream 9/18/2018

Production Scheduling Assumptions Production Schedules will always change Production will never go according to schedule. 9/18/2018
Takt time Takt time - takt, is a German term for rhythm. Takt time is the allowable time to produce one product at the rate customers are demanding it. This is NOT the same as cycle time, which is the normal time to complete an operation on a product (which should be less than or equal to takt time). 9/18/2018
Sets pace of production to Takt Time Time (Available seconds per working day) Takt Time = Volume (Daily production requirement) Sets pace of production to match pace of sales. Actual time required for a worker to complete one cycle of his process Cycle Time = 9/18/2018
