Lean Manufacturing Overview

Lean manufacturing is a production method that focuses on reducing waste. It was first developed by Henry Ford in the 1920s and later introduced as a formal concept by Toyota. The goals of lean manufacturing are to create continuous workflow, reduce batch sizes and inventory, and eliminate waste. Implementing lean manufacturing involves identifying different types of waste like overproduction, inventory, waiting time, and rework. It provides benefits like improved productivity, quality, and safety. The implementation process involves data collection, analysis, and developing and executing solutions.

LEAN MANUFACTURING
 The concept of Lean Manufacturing was developed by
Henry Ford in 1920’s
.
 Toyota was the first company to introduce ‘lean
manufacturing’ concept in its production system.

 Lean manufacturing focuses on reducing waste.


TYPES OF WASTE
 OVERPRODUCTION
 INVENTORY
 WAITING
 MOTION
 TRANSPORTATION
 RE-WORK
 OVER-PROCESSING
 NON- UTILIZING TALENT
Principles of Lean Manufacturing
• To create continuous flow .
• To use pull-systems to manage the workflow
• To reduce batch sizes and inventories
• To eliminate waste
• To cross-train workers in order to deal with inherent
variability
• Selective use of automation
• To instill a Continuous Improvement competence
BENEFITS OF LEAN
MANUFACTURING
• Productivity Improvement
• Total manufacturing time saved
• Less scrap
• Low inventory
• Quality improvement
• Plant space saved
• Better labor utilization
• Safety of operations
Implementation Stages of
Lean Manufacturing
Three stages in the implementation of ‘Lean
Manufacturing’---

 Data collection stage


 Data analysis and development of solution Stage
 Implementation Stage
