  1. INTRODUCTION

    The motors and pumps are like a device that vary from fluid machinery to supply the water to an suitable area to required working process. Their use consists in delivering pressurized air to pump at quantity of fluid to flow at controlled location. The different processes such as mechanical and industrial application (e.g.,machinery) casting, winding, impeller several materials are used to create the pieces of metals, cast iron, steel, titanium(welded), brass, copper(winding) in manufacturing plant.

    The manufacturing plant will consists of some operation to create a product or component turning, drilling, boring, pressing, punching, threading and winding.

    Every process has a specific sequence to flow at different machines for each operation. Our aim is to improve the flow of material in process line specifically the pressing and turning to finish the bracket to the next process will carry out the pressing to fix bush to speed the process and improve the delivery time of the orders and to increase the productivity of this process.

    The main purpose of this project is to come up with feasible solution that will allow the employees to setup the redraw machine in less time as well as reduce the lead time of the final products. Mapping to analyze the time duration and production flow smooth.

    1. Lean principles:

      The lean principle is approach with manufacturing industries it can be equaled applicable to all service and administration processes.

      Its not the new phenomenon Japanese auto manufacturers have been developing lean for 50 years. Lean principle is focus on 5s principle of lean.

    2. Lean tools:

      The basic purpose of lean manufacturing is to produce the product with minimum waste, time and continuous improvement of all process and activity operated in any form of work.

      For the following are key elements which are used as lean tools are:

      1. 5S

      2. Value Stream Mapping

      3. Just in time

      4. Kaizen

      5. Visual management

      6. Andon

      7. Gemba

      8. Total productive maintenance

      9. Takttime

      10. Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED)

      11. Cellular Layout (flexible operation)

      12. Supply Chain Management (SCM)

    [1]5S

    As pointed out, lean production is based on a constant search for losses andits elimination. Value is defined from the customer's point of view. Therefore, all the methods and techniques of lean production aimed at the removal of various types of losses. Some of the key lean tools are just in time, kanban, kaizen, but this paper willfocus on the analysis of the 5S system.

    5S – a set of rules for organizing the work of each worker. The goal is thatevery job is organized in such a way so asto be maximally effective and speed up thework of the employee. Since the "lean"originated from Japan, five words in the letter S coming from the Japanese language and they are: "Seiri" -sort, "Seiso" – set in order, "Seiton" – shine,"Seiketsu" – standardized, "Shitsuke" – sustain.

    1. Sort – Sort and distribute tools. Sort by the tools that are frequently used are placed within easy reach, and those that are not used often.

    2. Set in order – Set in order things that are important to them is easy access. The goal is to minimize the number of moves that a worker has to perform during operation.

    3. Shine – To minimize problems with dirt, it is necessary to regularly cleaning machines and jobs. In some industrial processes, dust is one of the causes of bad products or contaminations were inflicted color. To help identify dust lean factory floors, often painted in bright colors and enhance the light sources within the plant.

    4. Standardize – previous rules (sort, set in order and shine) should be standardized and printed procedures. There is a need after some period to choose the best ways to practice sort, set in order and cleaning and abide by them.

    5. Sustain – Maintain 5S culture among employees. Maintain training and make the 5S becomes part of the corporate identity.

    [2]Value Stream Mapping [VSM]

    A value stream is the tool of activities running from raw material to finished component for a specific component. Value stream maps are powerful visual tool used to identify and understand the flow of raw material and information. Value stream maps show many actions are required to deliver a product.

    All of the actions and tasks are both value added and non value added is required to bring an item an idea, information, product, or service from its delivery.

    Value added activity that transforms or shapes raw material or information to meet costumer requirement.

    Non value add those activities that TAKT time resources or space but do not add to the value of the product itself.

  1. WORK FLOW PROCESS

    1. VSM (Value Stream Mapping)

      Value Stream Mapping came in an existence after the success of the TOYOTO Company in Japan since 1980. It was developed by Toyota Company between 1960 and 1970. It is an lean manufacturing technique used to document, analyze, and improve the flow of information or components required to produce a product or service for the required customer. At the beginning VSM is being used as a re-engineer business for identify some unwanted work and resource are used for the process of an operation to complete the cycle. It will contains the two Value Stream Mapping are current state map and future state map.

    2. Current State Map

      The current state map is shown of how the process is currently done by the respected industry. This is the current state mapping of the company which will take work as scheduled it is created from Value Stream Mapping (VSM)the principle of working is equal. It shows the current process methodology of an producing components are perform service for the customers.

      This company contains many operation in this we taken only the pressing operation is applied in the required components are Vertical Bracket and Cover are the main product to do next operation in Hydraulic pressing machine to fix the Nylon bush.

      Fig.4.Current State of VSM

      We can identify the process of industry in each section in cycle time, lead time, value added time, non value added time and travelled time and calculate distance in feet. We can analyze the all section by using current state mapping in VSM after that it will shows the overall value in map.

      In this we implemented the 5S to reduce the defects in the components arrangement.

    3. 5S Implemented

      In the 5S process the company and product will developed in flow of manufacturing. The set in order is implemented to keep the completed products in neat arrangements. If the product are not arranged through set in order it will causes some damages in finished components. We shown the implemented photos.
