A Review of Lean Tools & Techniques for Cycle Time Reduction
Journal Title: REST Journal on Emerging trends in Modelling and Manufacturing - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
In today’s enormous competitive world, in order to survive in the market, any company has to satisfy their customers by providing right quantity with right quality and right price within stipulated time. All small scale industries facing problems in fulfilling customers demand within stipulated time period. In this paper the prime focus is various lean tools & techniques with their principles of application. There are many ideas and tools to explore in lean, so the one way is to do survey of some most important lean tools and its principles. This paper contains review of various lean tools and techniques such as 5S, Heijunka, SMED, Kaizen, PDCA, Takt time, TPM, and also about which tool can give better results for cycle time reduction also described with the help of literature review.
