IMPLEMENTING LEAN MANUFACTURING IN PLASTIC CHAIR INJECTION MOULDING PRODUCTION PROCESS USING VALUE STREAM MAPPING APPROACH

Abstract

This research integrates Value Stream Mapping with considering the reduction of its Non Value Added time. A Value Stream Mapping provides a blueprint for implementing lean manufacturing concept by showing information and flow of materials. The total Non-Value Added time of current Value Stream Mapping is 3 days and mostly caused by transportation activity from cooling to packaging area. The objective of the research is reducing the NonValue Added time and wastes in PT. X from current Value Stream Mapping, then redesigning future Value Stream Mapping with result of improvements. After implementing the improvements and redesigning future Value Stream Mapping, the result of Non-Value Added time reduced the lead-time from 3 days to 2 days, and the total cost were reduce to.
