I. INTRODUCTION
In the last decades, the manufacturing sector remains a
market textile and garment competitive in the Peruvian
Industry [1], what ambition it is increasing such
competitiveness through engineering methods and techniques
for improvement in the process of traditional clothing
industry in fabric point, which in the present study is based on
the implementation of a new pilot line of clothing that foot
modular work under the application of philosophy LM.
LM is considered as the most important strategy for
manufacturing companies wishing to achieve a world-class
performance [2]. This may be viewed as a set of tools that
were developed in Japan, in terms of William Edwards
Deming, that sets out how discipline work stage of process of
the value chain seeking to eliminate or reduce waste, to
reduce operating costs and improve the velocity of the flow of
the process, in other words it is a system that uses fewer
resources to create at least the same results produced through
the conventional systems of production, increasing the
varieties of the product required by the end customer at a
lower cost [3]. The fundamental principle of LM is that the
product or service and its attributes must conform to what the
customer wants, and to satisfy these conditions calls for the
elimination of the waste or debris. At the same time the
deployment reduces overall costs, particularly indirect, while

The PE and the OE are different in a conventional system,
due to the work for batches, that is to say the number of
completed clothing is not equal to the work in process of the
operators in its work areas.
In the Fig. 1, there is observed the layout of the
conventional line that is characterized by the immobilization
of the workers along the dressmaking line, each one has
assigned repetitive operations in the job and can go to
different rhythm being able to produce a major or less
clothing quantity in process, giving like turned out difference
of efficiencies of every worker.
