ABSTRACT
The 21st century is the age of science. Industrialization is the fastest growing sector all around the world.
It has become backbone for all growing countries around the world. Therefore demand and supply should be in-
appropriate manner. Lean manufacturing takes all the responsibility that how to achieve the quality. Leans means
removing. Now the point is what we have to remove. According to industrial purpose "Waste" is the major point.
Different types of waste are existing in the companies. Therefore slowly it has become necessary for all the fastest
growing countries to execute the lean techniques. Japanese invented it so they are the first to use this technique at
TPS(Toyota Production System). Lean basically check the production process to increase the productivity of the
company and more important to ensure the working environment within the workers. Gemba (Shopfloor) that is where
the waste occurs by the help of lean we can check where it will actually exist. VSM (Value Stream Mapping) is one of

the most powerful tools in the lean technique. Rother & Shook father of VSM which they determined it as a tool of paper
and pencil. Its a critical approach tools which come in approach for the implementation of the bridge work for many
industrial sectors. Depend upon three major factors that are Safety, Space and Shortest distance within the shop floor.
The main purpose of this paper is to propose future state which helps in reducing the lead time, manufacturing cost,
delivery in time without compromising with the quality of the product. And how the SME's (Small Medium Enterprises)
should adapt the lean manufacturing techniques.

INTRODUCTION
Lean Manufacturing
The term lean manufacturing was once first used by means of Krafcik (1988) and it used to be drawn
from the well-known book titled “The Machine that Changed the World”. In 1990, Womack is defined the various
thought of Lean manufacturing as the inner philosophy of the organizations which is sought as a removal of trade
in the ‘ebook’. Womack in 1996 predicted most important modifications in the manufacturing technique for that
company due to which the kind of order from customer which would adopt for changing the system.
Lean manufacturing is rooted in the Toyota production gadget in Japan and principally ambitions at the removing
of waste.
Lean is a set of tools that allow discovering and get rid of the waste that occurs. two Waste is known as
"Muda". Seven wastes that takes place in the enterprise that is:
Transport, Inventory, Motion (Unnecessary/ excess motion), Waiting, Overproduction,Over -processing,
Defects. Basically, it was once developed to cast off the three kinds of deviation that suggests insufficient

allocation of resources. The three types are:
Muda: Waste. Taiichi Ohno described “Muda” as any human activity, that absorbs asset create no
Mura: Unevenness
Muri: Overburden
There are five steps to implement lean questioning in a company: (1) outline charge from the point of view of the
customer (2) determined the value of that streams (3) Achieved the Flow, (4) Schedule the production of the used Pull, and
(5) looking for the perfection via the continuous improvements. Lean Manufacturing is proved to be resilient, when
correctly adopted with the resource of the particular actors thru the grant chain, affords great effects in phrases of revenue.
The systematical technique focuses while doing larger a whole lot much less sources via way of disposing of non-value
delivered activities and wastes. VSM (Value Stream Mapping):
It is a Lean manufacturing or lean firms method used to document, analyze and enhancement the drift of data or
cloth required to produce a product or provider for a customer. At Toyota, it is acknowledged as material and statistics
glide mapping. Value stream mapping (VSM) is a paper-pencil tool. It is a visible illustration of material float and facts
flow. Value movement mapping creates two maps starting with modern-day nation map it offers the picture of the
assembly which process running. And after 2d one is creating a future kingdom map for the improvement of the process.
VSM consist of a technique which is based on the lean manufacturing that is the integral part of this based on
uncooked material and foremost ending up the satisfaction of the client [10]
The technique of the production is to be performed when the wastage material is insufficient and has to be
removed. VSM is basically a pen and a pencil technique which is used to note down the various waste material and scroll
down it in the form of paper technique.
Various stages of VSM are mentioned below:
• Selection of family product.
• Current state map to be drawn.
• Analyse cutting-edge map
• Removal of the country map and waste material
• Proceed the kingdom map
• Adaptation.

METHODOLOGY
Figure 1: Methodology
Flowchart clearly indicates that we have to identify the problem in which we have to research. Than reviewing of
literature from different sources such as previous research papers or thesis. After that problem will be formulated regarding
research work. Then there will be data collection, as this paper clearly indicates that the research work will take place at
the company. As we have to increase the productivity of that industry by using a lean manufacturing technique.
Applying the VSM (Value Stream Mapping) at the Gemba (Shop Floor) of that company. If the data is correct then we
have to go for another step that is data analysis or if it is not up to the mark we again go for the process, we called data
collection. Next step is to validate the data which was collected and at last, we have reached the conclusion of that
research work.
We have to select out the business company for the study, is a business company that is dedicated to the
manufacturing of mechanical equipment. Currently, the manufacturing gadget is oriented by means of the capacity of
manufacturing orders, which are issued via using the manufacturing manager, taking into account the current orders and
the estimate of new orders. The most brilliant wastes at some stage in the corporation were: WIP and excessive stocks,
equipment shutdown and large distances between jobs. When the manufacturing managers were puzzled about the
situations recorded, the response used to be that the enterprise had usually labored in this way and that due to the reality of
the sort of article produced, with all the productive operations associated, there used to be no other way to do it. The way to
showcase how the productive part of the business enterprise ought to be reorganized used to be to exhibit surely to the
pinnacle administration the wastes that exist alongside the productive flow, as properly as the prices that these have for the
company.
