2. Takt time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takt_time

   Takt time, or simply takt, is a manufacturing term to describe the required product assembly duration that is needed to match the demand.Often confused with cycle time, takt time is a tool used to design work and it measures the average time interval between the start of production of one unit and the start of production of the next unit when items are produced sequentially.

3. Turnaround time - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnaround_time

   Lead Time vs Turnaround Time: Lead Time is the amount of time, defined by the supplier or service provider, that is required to meet a customer request or demand. [5] Lead-time is basically the time gap between the order placed by the customer and the time when the customer get the final delivery, on the other hand the Turnaround Time is in order to get a job done and deliver the output, once ...

4. Demand flow technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_Flow_Technology

   The effective hours is the time available for a given resource to produce product or perform process set-up or changeover. It is defined per shift and represents the total available time to perform tasks set in the SoE. Non-productive time such as equipment maintenance, breaks, 5S activity and continuous improvement is deducted from effective ...

5. Clock-face scheduling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock-face_scheduling

   The name derives from the fact that departures take place at the same time or times during the day. For example, services with a half-hourly frequency might leave at 5:15, 5:45, 6:15, 6:45, 7:15, 7:45 etc. The goal is to enhance the attractiveness and versatility of public transport.

6. Continuous-flow manufacturing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous-flow_manufacturing

   Continuous-flow manufacturing, or repetitive-flow manufacturing, is an approach to discrete manufacturing that contrasts with batch production.It is associated with a just-in-time and kanban production approach, and calls for an ongoing examination and improvement efforts which ultimately requires integration of all elements of the production system.

7. Cycle time variation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_time_variation

   Cycle time variation is a metric and philosophy for continuous improvement with the aim of driving down the deviations in the time it takes to produce successive units on a production line. [1] It supports organizations' application of lean manufacturing or lean production by eliminating wasteful expenditure of resources.

8. Standard time (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_time_(manufacturing)

   In industrial engineering, the standard time is the time required by an average skilled operator, working at a normal pace, to perform a specified task using a prescribed method. [1] It includes appropriate allowances to allow the person to recover from fatigue and, where necessary, an additional allowance to cover contingent elements which may ...

9. Single-minute exchange of die - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-Minute_Exchange_of_Die

   Run N (not illustrated) would have changeovers that take 1.5 minutes (97% reduction) and whole shift time reduced from 420 minutes to 368 minutes a productivity improvement of 12%. The SMED concept is credited to Shigeo Shingo, one of the main contributors to the consolidation of the Toyota Production System, along with Taiichi Ohno .
