3 SOLE Mid-Atlantic Lean Enterprise Conference Creating Lean Value Stream Flow Discuss value stream and work cell flow principles and how they improve productivity and business performance Discuss value, value streams, continuous flow, pacing, balancing work, pull mechanisms, quality at the source, lean work process flow, and value stream mapping Apply these lean principles to actual production processes to demonstrate their value in satisfying customers, shortening lead time, assuring quality, and reducing costs

4 SOLE Mid-Atlantic Lean Enterprise Conference Creating Value Stream Flow Segment 1 2:00 to 3:30 Value Stream Flow Principles Producing to a Tempo Standardizing Flow Activities Balancing Work Mistake Proofing Reducing Changeover Interruptions Assuring Quality Pull Processes Work Cell Flow Segment 2 4:00 to 5:00 Value Stream Mapping Move-All Forklift Case Study Visual Process Control JIT Feeder Process Synchronization Just-in-time Materials Flow Future State Transformation Wrap Up & Discussions

5 Improving customer satisfaction by reducing lean time!

6 Value Stream Flow Kaizen VALUE STREAM = All steps, both VA & NVA, required to bring the product from raw material to customer Product Group Value Stream Suppliers Process 1 Process 2 Customer You ll probably have to create Value Stream Managers Kaizen Conventional View: No single person responsible for product family Departmental Mgrs, have authority over their Silo only Primary reason why focus has been on process vice value stream improvement With Lean Focus: VS Mgrs responsible across functional & departmental boundaries Responsible for their product s Future State vision VS Mgrs, have authority to make changes happen Report directly to Sr. Mgmt All Rights Reserved.

14 Synchronized Production What happens to a Lean Flow if a machine breaks down? if a defective part is included with good parts? Assembly Plant Welding Answer! Flow is disrupted! Stamping 2nd Tier Solution! 1 st Tier Immediately alert to problems, then correct immediately!

15 The beat of your business!

16 Takt - Pacing the Flow Synchronizes pace of assembly to match pace of sales. Rate for assembling a product based on rate of sales. Takt Time = Effective Working Time per Shift Customer Requirement per Shift 27,000 sec 460 pieces = 59 seconds 8 hrs = 28,800 secs 1,800 secs (Lunch) = 27,000 secs

17 One Piece Flow Replenishment Signal Customer Orders Raw materials Step # 1 Step # 2 Step # 3 Customer Product Flow Reduces inventories of parts & WIP Rapidly readjusts to changing orders Enforces quality at the source Allows fast defect feed back Exposes problems (Stops Process)

23 Assuring Consistent Quality!

24 Standardizing Work Standardized Work Definition Best combination of worker and machine to achieve output with minimum labor, space, inventory, and equipment Objectives To establish and clarify the guidelines for manufacturing Provides a tool for improvement Where there is no standard, there can be no improvement!

25 Standardizing Work Purpose of Standardizing Work To document the process Develop operator instructions Provide training aid (for new operators) Reduce variations in the process Reduce opportunities for error Describe the best methods at the present time Clearly illustrate the relationship between TAKT time and cycle time Operator Cycle Time Time to complete one cycle of an operation (manual operations, walking, inspecting, unloading/loading machines, & gauging) Does not include waiting for machine auto cycle to finish This is different from the historical definition

31 Mistake Proofing Jidoka (Autonomaton) Definition: Use of automation to Mistake-Proof the detection of defects, freeing up team members to perform multiple tasks Purpose: Achieve zero defects & promote flow within a JIT process Functions: Separate human work from machine work Develop defect prevention devices Autonomation: automated with a human touch

32 Mistake Proofing poka-yoke Contact Example Top View Parts Flow Side View No Notch Good pin Bad pin Pins with notches proceed Pins without notches are stopped Good Part! Bad Part!

33 Mixed product production, without impact!

34 Changeover Reduction Multiple Fixtures Multiple Drill Sizes Example Objective! Make products as needed, not in batches Single Fixture * From J.T. Black, Designing and Implementation of Lean Manufacturing Systems and Cells, in Handbook of Cellular Manufacturing Systems, S.A. Irani, ed., John Wiley, 1999.

52 Visualizing Your Flow!

53 Value Stream Flow Mapping If you don t know where you are. How will you get where you re going? A) Follow your product s process path from beginning to end, and draw a visual representation of every activity in the material & information flow. Q? How can we flow information so that each process accomplishes only what s needed by the next process exactly when its needed? B) Then draw an aggressive, yet feasible Future State map of how value should flow. All Rights Reserved. For permission to use this material, please contact James Price, (859) x 407, 2004
