Resumo(s)
This project aims to study the implementation of Lean principles and tools in several levels of logistics, from internal logistics to interface with distribution center and suppliers, in an industrial plant.
The main focus of all efforts is to create the conditions to approach the continuous
flow scenario in the manufacturing processes.
The subject of improvement actions is a company whose core activity is car seat
production, more specifically the car seat cover production and assembly. This
focuses the assembly process, which requires the usage of a considerable variety
of components and therefore is an important obstacle to the implementation of
continuous flow.
The most salient issues are related with inefficient interaction between sections
and late supply of components in assembly lines, forcing the operator to abandon
his work station and leading to production interruption.
As an operational methodology, actions from Lean philosophy and optimization
were implemented according to project management principles.
