2. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 2 Definition  Lean Manufacturing is an operational strategy oriented toward achieving the shortest possible cycle time by eliminating waste.  It is derived from the Toyota Production System and its key thrust is to increase the value-added work by eliminating waste and reducing incidental work.  The technique often decreases the time between a customer order and shipment, and it is designed to radically improve profitability, customer satisfaction, throughput time, and employee morale.

RAT  AS A TEAM (4 members)  AS A TEAM (4 members), take 3 minutes to provide a written to answer the following questions:  Were all the plans the same?  Is one better than the others?  Why?  Closed Book / Closed Notes

4. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 4 Objectives  To identify waste elements in a system  To apply value stream analysis to a complex engineering/manufacturing system  To implement 3 M’s in a complex engineering environment  To be able to identify and implement the 5Ss of lean

5. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 5 Craft Manufacturing  Late 1800’s  Car built on blocks in the barn as workers walked around the car.  Built by craftsmen with pride  Components hand-crafted, hand-fitted  Excellent quality  Very expensive  Few produced

6. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 6 Mass Manufacturing  Assembly line - Henry Ford 1920s  Low skilled labor, simplistic jobs, no pride in work  Interchangeable parts  Lower quality  Affordably priced for the average family  Billions produced - identical

7. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 7 Lean Manufacturing  Cells or flexible assembly lines  Broader jobs, highly skilled workers, proud of product  Interchangeable parts, even more variety  Excellent quality mandatory  Costs being decreased through process improvements.  Global markets and competition.

Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 8 Definition of “Lean”  Half the hours of human effort in the factory  Half the defects in the finished product  One-third the hours of engineering effort  Half the factory space for the same output  A tenth or less of in-process inventories Source: The Machine that Changed the World Womack, Jones, Roos 1990

9. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 9 Lean Manufacturing uis a manufacturing philosophy which shortens the time line between the customer order and the product shipment by eliminating waste. Customer Order Waste Product Shipment Time Customer Order Product Shipment Time (Shorter) Business as Usual Waste Lean Manufacturing

16. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 16 7 Types of Muda  Excess (or early) production  Delays  Transportation (to/from processes)  Inventory  Inspection  Defects or correction  Process inefficiencies and other non-value added movement (within processes)

Also wasted walking Wasted effort to transport materials, parts, or finished goods into or out of storage, or between processes. Producing more than is needed before it is needed Maintaining excess inventory of raw mat’ls, parts in process, or finished goods. Doing more work than is necessary Any non-work time waiting for tools, supplies, parts, etc..

25. © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley 25 Henry Ford - Standards “To standardize a method is to choose out of the many methods the best one, and use it. Standardization means nothing unless it means standardizing upward. Today’s standardization, instead of being a barricade against improvement, is the necessary foundation on which tomorrow’s improvement will be based. If you think of “standardization” as the best that you know today, but which is to be improved tomorrow - you get somewhere. But if you think of standards as confining, then progress stops.” Henry Ford, 1926 Today & Tomorrow
