Organization Of Production

Dynamically occurring changes in the economy and social environment require enterprises to monitor and improve the effectiveness of their production processes in order to remain competitive. The paper describes a research project aimed at improving the flow of materials by changing the organization of production and using Lean Manufacturing tool in a manufacturing company from the food industry, which is characterized by specific requirements and legal standards. Among others, a tool for organizing the workplace and a tool allowing to shorten the time of changeovers, taking into account the specific requirements of the food industry, were used in the research project. The effect of the implemented changes is an increase in production efficiency by 11% and obtaining annual financial benefits in excess of EUR 100,000. It should be noted that the implementation of the project did not require any capital expenditure. All tasks were completed within the working hours of the company’s employees.

Improvement of the quality of production processes organization, shift to a new engineering level and effective use of products are associated with the improvement of production and the development of organizational processes quality control system. The purpose of the paper is to study the methods and means that allow increasing the performance of the implementation and organization of production processes for the development of radio-electronic instrument making products, as well as their improvement. It is possible to increase production efficiency and quality of manufactured products, in particular, by ensuring the processes stability, reducing the dispersion of production parameters, timely detecting deviations of production processes and eliminating their causes. This can be achieved through the use of methods for organizing inter-operation statistical analysis, control and regulation of processes using cause-and-effect analysis of product parameters relationship, which allow establishing the statistical relationship of their parameters with the modes of the production process and patterns of product parameters distribution depending on processing factors. The analysis of converters production processes was carried out and the cause-and-effect diagram was drawn up taking into account the main factors affecting the quality and percentage of usable products yield. Structure of the analysis system for monitoring production processes and its algorithm are given. The paper shows the dependence of the filming process quality on films parameters in the form of a cause-and-effect graph, as well as products manufacture progress diagram, which demonstrates the reproducibility and stability of the converters production processes. An integrated approach to the implementation of production processes, taking into account special aspects of the technology, connection of instrument parameters with processing factors, organization processes quality control, allows reducing the dispersion of product parameters, improving process stability and overall production efficiency.

Production Processes

The lean manufacturing concept is a systematic minimization of waste and non-value activities in production processes introduced by the Toyota production system. In this research, lean manufacturing is implemented in a cement production line. Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is applied to give a clear picture of the value chain in cement production processes and to highlight the non-value-added in the shop floor. To begin, the existing VSM is constructed based on the information and data gathered during visiting and observing the manufacturing process in the firm. As a result, the excess inventory between workstations was identified as a major waste generation, hence, the proposed VSM conducts further improvement and makes action plans to alleviate the unwanted activities. Then, the takt time to ensure smooth material flow and to avoid any occurring delay or bottleneck in the production line was figured out. The supermarket pull-based production control is suggested to be adopted in the future map. Two pull production strategies are selected in this case. The first is applying the Kanban system to control the level of inventory between workstations. The other is the CONWIP approach to control the amount of work in process to the entire production line. The outcome of the proposed models indicates a decrease of the none-value time from 23 days in the current state to about 4 and 2 days in Kanban and CONWIP systems respectively, so the CONWIP was suggested as most efficient. Some suggestions for further research are also mentioned.

LM has proven itself the production system that enhances shop floor efficiency. Furthermore, the current environment for production firms is accelerating the pace at which LM is implemented. The manufacture of lean is not easy to introduce. It is constant and complex activity. Assembly workers in production processes are the core of lean manufacturing activity. Training is known as vehicle to aid the implementation process. While the importance of training is known so far, there are only a few options for organizing effective training. The results of the survey of questions conducted inside UK manufacturing companies are examined. This article illustrates the definition of lean production and worker requirements in lean environment.

Production Organization

The service and equipment repairing process is the necessary condition for the growth of production capacity of enterprises, and thereafter it predetermines the approach for organization of production and upbuilding of production streams. In the article different options of reduction of working hours loss are considered, due to equipment downtime elimination because of repair and equipment maintenance on the reason of the increased operation. Also, in the article reserves of growth of labour productivity and reductions of unit cost are identified. It is proved, that current equipment monitoring allows to eliminate different defects in rationing of operating time of the equipment, it also allows to reach the permanent production’s rhythms, to increase the monitoring level, to provide the timeliness delivery of materials and components. As the example, in the research was used factual material of planned measurement of technical condition of the equipment on a separate production of GAS Group, methods of monitoring of technical condition and productive equipment maintenance and standard criteria of the equipment’s condition were developed.

Comments on Michael Hudson: Making Capitalism Great Again? A Critique of the “Rentier Takeover” Thesis

Financial Capitalism

Michael Hudson argues that a new form of financial capitalism has displaced the industrial capitalism of Marx’s day. Unlike earlier capitalists, whose pursuit of lower costs led to improvements in the organization of production, the typical wealth owner today is a passive rentier who, like a feudal landlord, merely claims the surplus from existing production processes. Some form of this vision of financialization is widely held, but, I argue, misleading. It exaggerates the differences between historical and present-day capitalism, and misses the ways in which “finance” and “industry” form complementary parts of a single process.
