Study Application

This research was conducted in manufacturing industry, so this research is based on case study application. This research serves to reduce waste in the industry when making a product. This study categorizes value-added work and which work has no added value. And it is measurable and has value, so it can be evaluated in the future. Later this will be poured or depicted on a map called Value stream mapping. This is a tool from Lean Manufacturing. Lean manufacturing is useful for analysing and reducing non value-added activities, value stream mapping analysis tools, 5L1H process mapping activities, and 5 why tools. From the results of this study obtained the efficiency of the process cycle and total estimation of the improvement of the lead time. This calculation can be an evaluation material for the company.

A Current

Lately, value stream mapping (VSM) is integrated with tools and techniques that belong to other areas of knowledge such as risk management (RM). It is well known tool in showing the value, value stream and the flow which represents three of lean manufacturing (LM) principles. This integration, gives more benefit in covering two of VSM issues such as considering the variability and uncertainty of production processes. In this paper, a model named variable value stream mapping (V-VSM) that integrates the two was showed, explained and tested. The model helps to generate the VSM in a dynamic way with the identification of current and potential risks. These risks might happen in the future bringing a strong impact on not reaching the main objectives in the defined time and cost. The model has been tested by conducting a case study in food sector. A current state map was built using both models, traditional VSM and VVSM. The results showed the effect of variability and uncertainty on the total cycle time (CT) and lead time (LT) values, where the traditional VSM failed to show it by being a static tool. Comparing the results of both models show the differences in presenting the real state of manufacturing environment..

Productivity is an important parameter for all small and medium scale manufacturing industries. Lean manufacturing emerged as production strategy capable of increasing productivity by identifying and eliminating non value added activities. This article deals with productivity improvement in a pre-assembly line of gearbox manufacturing company with a case study using lean concepts like process flow chart, process Gantt chart and time study. This paper illustrates using a case study on how a value stream mapping has to be carried out in a planet carrier pre-assembly line. Value stream mapping and work standardization are the key tools used in lean manufacturing and lean transformation. It makes the process smoother, helps in reduction of lead time and ultimately increasing the productivity. From the observed results it was found that, the productivity has been increased from 7 pieces to 10 pieces in the first step assembly when the proposed VSM was implemented. The second step processing time was reduced by the execution of proposed value stream mapping with TAKT time of 126 minutes and 165 minutes of processing time for demand of 10 pieces were achieved and the overall processing time has been reduced by about 24%.

Lean Six Sigma is a management focused on quality and productive performance in operating systems. This article discusses the foundations of this methodology through of two different conceptions of management, Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma. First of the article explain the DMAIC (define measure, analyze, improve and control) and their respective phases, after the Lean philosophy with the sipoc and value stream mapping techniques. The article aims to show integration of these two conception and their results. The methodology consisted in a theory was based on a literature search an exploratory research which consisted of three case studies in differences companies located in Sorocaba, São Paulo. In this article studies the applying of Lean Six Sigma and its results.

Purpose – Value stream mapping (VSM) is a lean manufacturing (LM) tool used for analyzing material and information flow on a specific product family. The purpose of this article is to address the importance of VSM in LM environment in an Indian auto components industry. Design/methodology/approach – The case study approach has been used to show the applicability and importance of VSM in an Indian auto components company, in which the current state of manufacturing is mapped with the help of VSM symbols. According to the current state mapping, the study conducted analysis and identifies the area of improvement needed in terms of work in process, lead time and cycle time. The study further implemented kaizen on the current state map and developed future state map while including these kaizens. Findings – The study clearly shows that the VSM brings out the positive impact on process ratio, TAKT time, process inventory level, line speed, total lead and process time and reduced man power. It is helping the company in satisfying their customers with respect to quality, cost and delivery. Research limitations/implications – The main limitation of the study is the confined focus on a single industry. The case should be extended to other industries in order to support the findings and for the purpose of the wider generalization. Practical implications – The results obtained from the study will help other industries and sectors to implement VSM in LM environment. Originality/value – The article deals with a real case study, which shows application of VSM for implementing lean principles.

Value stream mapping (VSM) is one of the tools in Iean manufacturing that can be used to improve the efficiency of a company. VSM can describe material flow and information flow from upstream to downstream, from suppliers to consumers. VSM can be used to identify waste through sorting each activity into value-added or non-value-added activities. VSM training that begins with providing understanding of the concept of lean manufacturing is expected to increase the ability of workers to improve and enhance the performance of their companies. This training gives good results, seen from the results of discussions and presentations of each group in a given case study
