Application of Value Stream Mapping at Flexible Manufacturing Systems

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nowadays the lean philosophy is very important in the improvement of the manufacturing processes. The value stream mapping is a fundamental lean device which can decrease the material-and information flow wastes. This paper introduces in details the static and dynamic value stream mapping’s method and it summarizes the application possibilities of these devices. There are numerous research directions in this topic which will be outlined in this paper.
