| Popis: | The manufacturing industry is an important pillar of the global economy and a main driver for future prosperity. To achieve operational competitiveness, it is necessary to design manufacturing systems along guidelines put forth by the Toyota production system, or lean principles. The somewhat sluggish adoption of these principles by manufacturing companies indicates a need for methodical support. One of the main obstacles can be found in the design process of manufacturing systems, which is often guided by evaluation criteria that are not aligned with lean principles.The research paper provides methodical support by applying models from control theory to manufacturing system design. The developed process model enables the effective use of evaluation as a key element in a control loop for guided improvement. The results are going to help companies by improving their manufacturing system design process and by achieving lean design results. |
