Making The Lean Manufacturing Process Effective

The lean manufacturing process is an ongoing program, with no possible ending. This is one reason why it is not so easy to “define”, much less attain finished. Because it is a process, you are always striving for improvement.

When you finally decide to commit to the program, you must decide if you are able to follow through with such an ongoing process program by using your in-house personnel, or if you should hire one of the many lean manufacturing consultants.

One way to begin is by asking people in your industry and size of company. A wise man learns from the experience of others. The recommendations from trusted friends ispriceless.

What are some lean manufacturing methods?

* Identify the areas where waste occurs
* Defects
* Extra inventory
* Wasted time waiting
* Wasted motion
* Transportation
* Excess production

Several methods you will implement :

5S implementation is one of the smartest things you can do for your business, no doubt about it. Your work areas will become orderly, work area will have a place and be in its place], the entire atmosphere will be [happier and more productive]. What more could you ask for! The best way to start is with 5S implementation.

Kaizen and continuous improvement are one in the same thing, the name is Japanese and it has a few meanings of slight difference, but continuous improvement is best for our purposes.

A popular version of Kaizen is the Kaizen blitz, also known as a Kaizen event. This has become a very useful and common tool in lean manufacturing. Many companies have incorporated it into their business culture very successfully.

Value stream mapping is a powerful tool to help visualize the entire lean manufacturing process. It might appear complicated at first, it is actually rather simple, once you break it down into bite-sized chunks.

An overview of six sigma reveals a methodology for quality improvement. Motorola owns the trademark, and as such Six Sigma is a “brand name.” Because it is also used by countless consultants who use the name of six sigma, you see it in lower case letters when used by consultants, and capital letters when used by Motorola.

How to use the lean manufacturing techniques to eliminate waste

* Quality-mistake proofing
* Pull systems-flow control
* One piece flow-intelligent automation
* Lead time reduction
* Level loading-mixed model production
* More effective time management

Common sense prevails

If you ask a manufacturer who has successfully implemented the lean manufacturing process, you will find that most people truly like it because it is so logical and helpful. One major difference is that it is monitored and sustained company wide, or at least within a work area or department.

Once a system is in place, it is rather like another spoke on a wheel, making it stronger and better. You cannot realistically expect to be successful without an integrated approach.Implementing lean manufacturing is like having a wheel with many spokes, each spoke helping the entire wheel. The most benefits are realized by using an integrated approach. Each part of the program supports the other, like the wheel spokes and the entire company benefits.
