What is Lean Manufacturing? Guiding principles of Lean Manufacturing What are the Seven Deadly Wastes? Lean Tools and Common Practices What are Portable CMMs? Practical Applications and Case Studies
Production practice and management philosophy focused on: Optimizing customer value Eliminating waste (unnecessary activities that do not contribute to customer value) Increasing efficiency Achieving manufacturing excellence
1.
Specify Value What is the value of a specified product from the customers perspective?
2.
Identify Value Stream What steps will create this value? What steps will create no value? What steps can be eliminated?
3.
Create Flow Can we make our work elements flow continuously with minimal queues, no reworks, and no stoppages?
4.
Establish Pull
Can we deliver a value product desired by our customer exactly how they desire it and when they desire it?
5.
Seek Perfection!
Now that weve identified value and produced a value product for our customer, is there room for improvement? Can the process evolve? Can we eliminate more waste?
Of course!!!
Lean Manufacturing and Portable Metrology: Improving Manufacturing Efficiences
"For improvement to flourish it must be carefully cultivated in a rich soil bed (a receptive organization), given constant attention (sustained leadership), assured the right amounts of light (training and support) and water (measurement and data) and protected from damaging*.
The Seven Deadly Wastes are activities that have been identified as non-value adding events or processes that hinder profitability in a company. They include:
The Seven Deadly Wastes are activities that have been identified as non-value adding events or processes that hinder profitability in a company. They include:
Transportation Unnecessary movement of valued goods from one process to the next
Motion unnecessary movement or transportation of people and equipment due to an inefficient layout or process
The Seven Deadly Wastes are activities that have been identified as non-value adding events or processes that hinder profitability in a company. They include:
Now that we know what kind of activities to avoid, what are some of the lean tools at our disposal?
Lean Manufacturing and Portable Metrology: Improving Manufacturing Efficiences
What is 5S? A series of activities for organizing a work space for effectiveness and eliminating wastes that contribute to errors, defects and injuries
Sort
The stages are: 1. Sort: Clearly distinguishing what is necessary and disposing of the unnecessary Straighten: Organizing the necessary items so that they can be used and returned easily

What is Kaizen? Focuses on eliminating waste, improving productivity and achieving sustaining improvement in processes of an organization Relies on analytical techniques (such as the 5 Whys) to identify opportunities to eliminate waste in a specific process Often considered to be the building block of all lean production methods
Shewhart Cycle One of the major components of Kaizen is the Shewhart Cycle.
Plan Create a plan for change, defining the steps you need to take to make the change
Shewhart Cycle
Check Examine the results of the trial. Verify the process improved. If not, try again!
Act Implement the changes on a broader scale and update the standard operating procedures.
Shewhart Cycle
Key Elements of Kaizen include: Quality Effort Employee participation Communication Willingness to change
Arranging workstations in a sequence that promotes a smooth flow of materials through the production process with minimal wait or transport Helps to eliminate overproduction, reduce defects and save floor space Proven to be more flexible and responsive than the traditional massproduction line

Summary
Lean Manufacturing is a production process that can help save time, labor and money by eliminating waste Lean tools such as 5S (workplace organization), cellular manufacturing and in-line inspection can help reduce harmful waste, thus improving product efficiency Brainstorm with other departments and evaluate every aspect of a process with the 5 Whys
Portable CMMs can help streamline both the manufacturing and quality aspect of a product, benefitting both the manufacturer and the customer Dont forget: Lean Manufacturing is a continual process. Always strive for perfection!
