Optimization of Cycle Time by Lean Manufacturing Techniques-Line Balancing Approach
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
With the importance of being competitive in today's market, many companies are adopting various methods to improve their productivity. One way to achieve this is to adopt lean manufacturing techniques. With the mind-set of building products cheaper, faster, and better to gain a competitive edge in the market, Company ABC Ltd. has used lean techniques such motion study and line balancing. Yamazumi Chart is used for line balancing. Using these tools helped company to develop process with cycle time within the takt time associated with building the product. Having a good understanding of these lean tools allowed for a better understanding of the waste associated with walk and wait that was in the production line and the importance of eliminating it.
