Development of kanban system for valve manufacturing industries using Just in time principles
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Just in Time (JIT) is a management philosophy used to eliminate sources of production waste by producing the right amount in the right place at the right time which should improve profits and return on investment. It also helps in reducing variability, improving productivity, reducing lead time, and reduces costs associated with machine setup and equipment breakdown through waste elimination and kanban. Kanban is one of the primary techniques of JIT philosophy which is a card based control system which signals a cycle of replenishment for production and materials. It maintains an orderly and efficient flow of materials throughout the entire manufacturing process which improves a manufacturing system. This study covers pre-requisite activities in establishing a Kanban system, starting with gathering manufacturing data, calculating optimum kanbans in the systems, determination of safety factor based on manufacturing capability in order to ensure that delivery to customer .This paper studies the development of the kanban system with implementation of Just in time policies for valve manufacturing industries. This paper concludes that development of the Kanban system minimise inventory on floor and optimized storage area. The objective of this study is to show that Kanban system improves a manufacturing system as well as achieving Just in Time (JIT) practice which provides a background on lean manufacturing.
