Abstract

Lean manufacturing is a powerful tool and the most effective way to utilize the resources and reduce the wastes of the production system. In order to tackle problems in a printer assembly company, the current value stream mapping was constructed and the solutions were proposed. In this study, the critical wastes were identified including waiting, transportation and inventory. Hence, lean tools were applied to reduce these wastes which are elimination of unnecessary operations, layout rearrangement, and application of Kanban system. Simulation approach was used to test the performance of each proposed alternatives. Future value stream mapping was proposed to show the improvement of the production system. The proposed solution reduced the total production lead time and increased the value-added ratio by 11.10%.
