Study On Lean Manufactuirng In Yantai Plant Of HWK

Since the continuous developing of manufacturing in China, lean manufacturing isdeveloped&used widely&rapidly in domestic enterprise. Lean manufacturing focus oneliminating all kinds of waste exists in enterprise operation. Use the implemented strategyand method of just in time, fast exchange, continuous improvement etc. to enhance theproduction ability of many variety and small batch&satisfy the individual requirement ofproducts&service from customer side.In this thesis, used the theory of lean thinking to analyze the value stream chart of HWKMFG, find out the waste which no value added&reduce its influence to production processfrom analyzing&optimizing the MRP system&actual logistic running process. Throughthe research of production process, analyze the work flow, change the production processmake it flow more smoothly. Use pull production with MRP system running to discuss thelinking of two different technic processes, combine with the tools of KANBAN&fastexchange to make them running balance.A lean manufacturing evaluation target has been provided according to the balancescorecard of HWK MFG&linked up to the mentioned target. The lean manufacturing effecthas been evaluated by the function of statistic&analysis in MRP system.The enterprise which discussed is not a large scale company but provide many kinds ofproducts&high value added service for many famous enterprises in the world. Its leanmanufacturing implement process&evaluation method can give some guidance&referencefor the small&middle size enterprise which developing rapidly.
