Optimization of Elevator Production Line in its Flexible Improvement by the Value Stream Mapping Tool

Abstract:

The mixed model elevator controller production line flexible optimization project is established. The production bottleneck has been deeply analyzed and illustrated by the Value Stream Mapping Tool. Value stream analysis of the elevation controller production line status including dividing production, determining take time and visualizing production and problem analysis are implemented. The logistic moving distance is reduced from 501.8 m to 311.7 meters, the Cycle time, manufacturing time, number of operator and working hours are significantly reduced by 12.4%, 16.1%, 20%, 18.79% and 81.15% respectively.
