Popis: The main goal is to reduce the time delays caused in manufacturing of hydraulic excavators which can be accomplished making and executing powerful and proficient procedures in each of its line in their business. For this purpose lean tools are used as lean focus on continuous improvement and reduction of waste. VSM is used to serve the purpose of customer by eliminating the non-value added activities and help in value creation process with minimum lead time. The study was carried out on production process of pivot pins which are used in manufacturing of excavator machines of different specifications. By fixing production schedule and using a lean tool such as VSM, lead time was reduced which in turn reduces the cost of the product.
