 Part-machine Analysis
●
● Here, we identified the product families in the process using rank order clustering.

Resource Allocation
● Metal Cutting and Wood Cutting machines are shared between the glass tables and
timber desks.
● Sanding and coating machines have been duplicated by UHF and thus are not shared
by the target product family and any other products.
 Current State VSM

biggest planet we live on
Muda Identified
in the Process

● Overproduction

● Excess inventory

● Waiting

● Defects/Low Quality Products

each step in the process

Future State VSM Redesign

 Production Demand = 4500 tables per month = 225 tables/day
- 1440 Small Tables (32% of demand)

Schedule & -
- 3060 Medium Tables (68% of demand)
Order Size = 25 (180 Orders)

Load-levelled Work Time:

- 20 days/ month

Box -
-
1 x 8 hours with 2x 30 min breaks.
1 time 5 hour planned maintenance
Takt Time: 8100/4500 = 1.8min/table -> 108s

Pitch = 108s/ table x 25 tables/order = 45 mins/order

Pitch Interval = 420 mins / 45 min = ~9 intervals*

*intervals have been rounded to the nearest whole number

Total x % Total = Intervals Equivalent Time Items Produced

Interval Demand per item per day

9 intervals x 32% = 3 45 x 3 = 135 min 2.88 x 25 = 75

9 intervals x 68% = 6 45 x 6 = 270 min 6.12 x 25 = 150

Production Schedule: SMM, MSM, OR MMS
Techniques Required for Successful
Implementation
 Methods to Monitor Quality

- Integrated Quality Control: Workers act as inspectors at every

stage of production.

- Jidoka (autonomation): automatically stopping a machine when

an abnormality occurs.

- Andon: Visual management tool that can alert personnel if there is

an abnormality that needs attention.

- Poka Yoke: Error proofing. Can be done by implementing simple

and inexpensive devices that help operators avoid mistakes in their
work.
 Outlook - Industry 4.0
● Use Cyber-physical systems to let clients personalize their
furniture orders via online portals.
● Install an IoT-based inventory tracking system
● Using data analytics to implement a predictive maintenance
system that plans maintenance during scheduled downtime.
● Use robotics and automation to improve productivity and
reduce errors
● Use augmented reality to evaluate pre-production quality
standards.
● Install a touch screen system
