Lean

Is developed by Toyota ,Japan.

Lean is a manufacturing philosophy related to the concept of continuous improvement and core principle of lean is to eliminate activities that do not add value to final product.

4 main goals of lean are :

1)Reduce cost

2)Reduce Ware

3)Improve Productivity

4)Improve Quality

Some Lean Tools are :

  1. Value Stream Mapping (VSM): A visual representation of the entire process flow, highlighting value-adding and non-value-adding activities. VSM helps identify opportunities for improvement and visualize the ideal future state.
  2. 5S: A workplace organization method consisting of five principles: Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain+Safety. 5S aims to create an organized, clean, and efficient work environment.

  4. Poka-Yoke: Also known as error-proofing , Poka-Yoke techniques aim to prevent mistakes or defects from occurring by designing foolproof systems or devices to prevent or minimize defects.
  5. Kaizen: A philosophy of continuous improvement, Kaizen encourages small, incremental changes and involves all employees in seeking and implementing improvements on an ongoing basis.It's reduced costs, maximized profits,improved efficiency and improved quality.
  6. Just-in-Time (JIT): JIT focuses on producing or delivering items at the exact time they are needed, minimizing inventory levels, reducing waste, and increasing efficiency.
  7. Total Productive Maintenance (TPM): TPM aims to maximize equipment effectiveness and minimize downtime by involving all employees in the maintenance and improvement of equipment and processes.
  8. A3 Problem Solving: A structured problem-solving approach that encourages teams to analyze problems, define root causes, and develop action plans on a single A3-sized sheet of paper.
