Manufacturing engineers

Find ways to meet customer’s expectations as lead time, mass customization, increase quality, increase warranty and environmental consideration

Manufacturing managers

Have higher technical knowledge and spend more time behind a computer

Toyota production system TPS

Japanese manufacturing sector developed by toyota. Organizes manufacturing and logistics for the automobile manufacturers. Including iteration with suppliers and customers.


Must be used using minimum resources of manpower flow production and machinery

TPS wants to provide

Best quality, lowest cost and short lead time through the elimination of waste. TPS maintain and improved though standardizes work and kaizen

JIT- just in time production

Making what customer needs when it’s needed in the quantity needed

What does JIT do?

Attacks waste


Anything not adding value- from customers perspective


Exposes problems and bottlenecks caused by variety


Archives streamlines production- reducing inventory

Takt time

Available time(includes all shifts) / product demand(exacly what you need)

Seven types of waste

Over-production, wait time, transportation, processing, inventory, motion and defects

Mass production vs lean production

Mass- batching and queuing


Lean- continues flow

Pull vrs push JIT systems

Pull- material is pulled to workstation just as its needed



Push- material is pushed into downstream workstations regardless whether resources are available

KANBAN

Japanese word for card


Autorizes production from downsteam operations through plants

Inventory

Traditional- high inventory


JIT- eliminates inventory


JIT requires small lots, low ser up, and containers for fix number of parts

Heinjunka

Leveling (smoothly) production schedule using mixed model sequencing


Reduces ripple of smallvariations in schedukes. Production quantiries can be evenly distributed over time

Quick set up- quick changeover

Reduce cost set up, reduce set up time


SMED - single minute exchange of dies

Set up components

Internal- must be performed while the machine is stopped


External- can be carry out while the machine is still operating


Aim convert as much of internal to external and improve set up

Jidoka

Automation with a human touch


Can result on a high performance and high speed production. But NOT toyota


Toyota must have the ability to stop if something unusual happens.

Jidoka concept

Doing it right at the first time, allow workers to stop production time, lights signal quality problems, under capacity scheduling, allows for planning, problem solving and maintenance, visual control makes problems viable. Poka yoke prevents defects

Jidoka technique- poka

A form of device for building in quality


May take many shapes and design


Eg sensors, lights, alignment methods


Goal- zero defects, find it before they occur


Statistical quality control SQC - finding defects after they occur

Kaizen

Breaking down the current situation, analyzing it and quickly putting it back together to make it better. “Change for better”- continuous improvement

Kaizen workshop

5 days activity in which a team identifies and implements a significant improvement process

GEMBA

Meaning real place where actions takes place


Manufacturing have 3 main activities - developing, producing and selling products

Gemba 5 rules

1- when a problem arises, go to GEMBA first


2- check gembustu (relevant objects)


3- take temporary counter-measures on the spot


4- find toot cause


5- standardize to prevent recurrence

5S

Seiri (sort)- keep only what is absolutely necessary


Seiton (organize/straighten) create a location for everything


Seiso(cleanliness/sweep) clean everything and keep it clem


Seiketsu (standardize) implement seiri, seiton and seiso plant wide


Shitsuke (sustain) assure everyone floows 5s

Red flag attack

A group of people that out red tags in everything not ised in the past 30 days, if the manager wants to keep it it need to justify it or they will be removed
