Value Stream Mapping as Lean Production tool to improve the production process organization – case study in packaging manufacturing
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 4
Abstract
In the paper, the method of the production process improvement with the use of lean production tools has been presented. The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) for the cardboard packaging produc-tion process has been presented. On the basis of the current state map (CSM), areas for improvement have been designated 5 organizational changes of the process were marked out. To minimize the three basic losses excessive storage, unnecessary movement and delays, the changes were introduced in the method of inter-operative transport, supervision of the storage condition (input and output of the process), control at the processing operation and the use of a production loop. As a result of the changes, it is possible to shorten the process time, shorten the total time of operations adding value and reduce the number of non-compliant products.<br/><br/>
