Lean Manufacturing Case Study with Kanban System Implementation
Lean manufacturing has been the buzzword in the area of manufacturing for past few years especially in Japan. The Kanban system is one of the manufacturing strategies for lean production with minimal inventory and reduced costs. However, the Kanban system is not being implemented widely by manufacturing companies in Malaysia. Thus, the objectives of this case study are 1) to determine how does ...
متن کاملLean Manufacturing in a Mass Customization Plant : Improvement of Kanban Policy and Implementation
This thesis documents the application of the principles of lean manufacturing and supply chain planning at Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates. Varian is a manufacturer of ion implantation machines, and supplies and services equipment for most of the leading semiconductor manufacturers. The demand for the company's products is uncertain. The products are customizable, and the production s...
متن کاملOptimization of kanban-based manufacturing systems
We develop and analyze an algorithm to maximize the throughput of a serial kanbanbased manufacturing system with arbitrary arrival and service process distributions by adjusting the number of kanban allocated to each production stage while maintaining the total work-in-process inventory at any desired level. The optimality properties of the algorithm are proved under a necessary and sufficient ...
متن کاملStability of a `Signal Kanban' Manufacturing System
Signal kanban production control systems are often used in manufacturing systems with signiicant setup times where more conventional kanban systems are inappropriate. This paper analyzes signal kanban systems under demands with bounded uctuation. It is shown that such systems are stable in the sense that cumulative demand at any time trails cumulative demand by no more than a constant. We deter...
متن کاملLean Manufacturing Systems Optimisation Supported by Metamodelling
This paper presents metamodelling method as a practical approach to the statistical summarisation of simulation results. Metamodels enable to reduce memory requirements by experiments and, on the other side, they can be use as fast support tools for the manufacturing systems control. The chosen metamodelling approach was applied in various projects. Given example shows practically how can be me...
