Waste Reduction for Assembly Line Layout with Integration of Lean Tool: Kanban

Abstract

Assembly line development and line balancing it is seen that there is some scope for research work in this area. It is proposed to carry out some theoretical and experimental studies on assembly line development and line balancing. Its need to providing comfort and improved working conditions so as to channelize the energy, skills of the workers into constructive productive work.Moving parts from one end of the facility to another end does not add value to the product. Thus, it is important to decrease transportation times within the manufacturing process.The elimination of waste by using lean tool is an essential ingredient for survival in today's manufacturing world. Likewise, works-inprogress should be stored as close as physically possible to the place where they will next be used.
