Lean Manufacturing Through Tool System

Lean Manufacturing is a technique originally developed in the automotive industry that concentrates on shortening the time between the customer's order and shipment. Lean manufacturing has been applied very successfully in manufacturing and remanufacturing operations, resulting in shorter production lead times, greatly reduced inventories, and significantly enhanced profitability. These techniques also promote improved flexibility, enhanced reliability and substantial cost reductions. The lean production system contains several important principles as well as a collection of tactical methods for achieving them.
