Abstract

Lean Manufacturing (LM) is widely accepted as a world-class manufacturing paradigm, its currency and superiority are manifested in numerous recent success stories. Most lean tools including Just-in-Time (JIT) were designed for repetitive serial production systems. This resulted in a substantial stream of research which dismissed a priori the suitability of LM for non-repetitive non-serial job-shops. This Study material is prepared and structures for Developing Knowledge on Improvements in Shop Floor & it’s better Management and for Lean Manufacturing Implementation to the Production Managers and Supervisors. These concept will the benefit the units in the areas of Productivity, Quality and Manpower Management. Areas in the Study Materials may look as if it exclusively covered for Members Practicing in the Plant in the Shop Floor for leading organization those are leading in Quality, Productivity and Management Systems. But this Study Material may be used for conceptual up-date of the Production Managers and Supervisor about the World-wide latest Practicing Tools in the Shop-Floor. “Lean manufacturing is a management philosophy focusing on reduction of waste through over production, waiting time, process time, transportation, inventory, motion and scrap in any business. By eliminating waste, quality is improved and production time and costs are reduced to satisfy the customer needs”. Though lean manufacturing practices are now being practised in many sectors, it’s implementation in Corrugation industry in India pose a special challenge because of nature of industry. This industry is characterized by large number of standard and nonstandard varieties based on customer requirement. Each variety has a comparatively shorter life cycle. Further each product goes through a number of short cycled processing steps. Batch production is commonly used mode of processing. However, some of the units are well organized and professionally run.
