In current scenario, all the manufacturing industries are placing constant efforts for their endurance in the current global volatile economy. Manufacturing industries are annoying to implement new and professional techniques in their regular production processes. Some of the recognized tools are applied and their awareness has been growing among the industries, especially in production sector. Last two decades have witnessed an explosion in the area of quality and productivity improvement initiatives in the manufacturing industries by different tools and techniques such as lean manufacturing, total quality management, total productive maintenance, six sigma implementation etc. The objective of this study is to enlighten the importance of lean techniques implementation in a medium scale belt manufacturing industry. This research study helps to exhibit the existing hidden potential in the selected industry as well as a selection of appropriate techniques for productivity improvements. Also, it aims to eradicate wastes and non-value added activities at every stage in order to enhance the overall productivity. From the results after implementation of appropriate lean techniques it was found that, the lead time was reduced about 1256 minutes and the overall production was increased by about 9%. |
