IDENTIFICATION AND ELIMINATION OF WASTE ACTIVITIES IN THE SHOP FLOOR
THROUGH LEAN TOOLS
Background:
Overall factory economy of
any industry is subject to the
cost and time related to
production or quality
management or wastage
minimization. Savings made
by eliminating non value
added activities and time
are important for
management to keep the
industry economically sound
and safe. Thus there is a
common objective for all the
stakeholders in the
organization to minimize
wastage for the betterment
of the company and the
individuals as a whole.
Objective:
To identify waste activities in
the sewing and finishing floor
of trouser section and
minimize them through the
application of LEAN tools.
 To implement
KAIZEN
 To introduce
KANBAN
 To implement 5S
 To design a work aid
Research Methodology:
Keywords: (preferably 5)
Lean: Waste: 5S: Root cause: PDCA:
Time study: Kaizen: Kanban:
Analysis:
Inventory:
Standard WIP of 10/op fixed in
trouser finishing through
implementation of new token
system. Extra loader eliminated.
Transportation:
Walking time of loader reduced
from 41.5 sec to 24.5 sec through
proposed layout.
Waiting:
Waiting of top press operation
reduced through removal of extra
operator.
Motion:
Cutting of belt loops at belt loop
attach eliminated through new
work aid.
Over processing:
Rework of checker reduced through
implementation of DEFECT cards.
Overproduction:
540 sq mt of fabric saved per year
through reduction in excess belt loops.
Rs 5000 per month saved through
reduction in excess thread ends.
Defects:
Rework rate minimized through
SOPs at selected operations.
Conclusion:
The study brought out the direct
costs involved in wastage in the
production floor. Savings made up
to Rs 2.4 lakhs/annum by
eliminating these wastes.
