Brief Introduction:
The main objective of this paper is to provide a
background on lean manufacturing, present an
overview of manufacturing wastes and introduce
the tools and techniques that are used to
transform a company into a high performing
lean enterprise. Applications have spanned
many sectors including automotive, electronics
and consumer products manufacturing .
LEAN MANUFACTURING:
The term Lean Manufacturing can be defined as a system that utilises
less, in terms of all inputs, to create the same output as those created
by a traditional mass production system while contributing increased
variety for the end customer. Lean", is a production practice that
considers the expenditure of resources for any goal other than the
creation of value for the end customer to be wasteful, and thus a
target
for
elimination.

ELIMINATION OF WASTE
After pointing out the various causes of waste it is
very much essential to remove them for survival in
todays manufacturing world. Organisation stress on
manufacturing better quality products with low
manufacturing cost that can be made available to
users in short duration of time. The next set of tools
can be utilised to reduce waste.
Just In Time: It utilises a system called the Pull System. The production starts only
when an order is received by the company. Depending upon the quantity of goods to
be manufactured raw materials are pulled and manufacturing is carried out.
