Gaunt strives to eliminate casual action in the Industry case.
Slim is a state method developed by Japanese automakers to streamline Industry and maximize application. It applies to any Production and stresses identification of misspend and inefficiencies. Lank is an in fashion course that teaches non-stop improvement. With regard to the applicability of machines it identifies three types of engine cycles in the industrial development.
Lean Philosophy
The Skinny philosophy is a transaction, or custom, of approaching a box. It involves examining Industry nailed down member, tool, news and custom.This is the total time to takes a machine, including manual time, to complete a product. For an automobile it would be the time from the first part moved to the assembly line until the finished car rolls off the line. It refers to the idea of automated machines that identify defects and stop themselves. An automated machine is running on automatic time, one of three machine cycles.
Automatic Time
Automatic time, or auto cycle time, involves a machine running without the necessity of human effort. Cycle time for a machine refers to the process of completing one task. If a machine puts caps on bottles then one cycle is the amount of time it takes to place a cap on a bottle or a row of bottles if done at the same time. The idea behind automatic time cycle is that a person does not need to spend his time and effort watching a machine perform a repetitive process.
Machine Cycle Time
This cycle defines the amount of time a machine takes to complete one unit. This differs from automatic time since it includes the manual time by an employee to load and unload the machine, known as manual cycle time. The employee makes sure the machine has all the components to complete the task and then starts the machine. When it completes the task the employee unloads the final product.
Total Cycle Time
Identifying and eliminating misspend is at the core of Gaunt. Examples of dissipate subsume overproduction and excess stock. Japanese handle the tete-a-tete "muda" to call any activity that uses resources but produces no value; that is their definition of waste. Lean uses many terms such as autonomation.
