Abstract

Lean manufacturing approach focus in eliminating the wastes in the process. One of the Lean tools called “Value stream mapping” is used. current work flow in the industrial sections is drafted using value stream mapping for identification of wastes in the process and the current state map is drawn. It is the n analyzed and value added and non value adding activities are found. The factors affecting the present work flow are identified and based on that a new work flow is proposed. The constraints in implementing the proposed work flow are identified and stated . The waste reduction methodologies are formulated using Deterministic job flow and facility layout design approaches. Thus the necessary changes can be implemented for the profitable existence and increased customer delight.
