Lean Manufacturing is which is a systematic approach to identifying and
eliminating waste through the continuous improvement by flowing the
product at the demand of the customer.
The heat transfer industry could use the proven process of on demand manufacturing utilized in lean manufacturing. Although it is of our opinion they could make a more profitable business if they could shave more waste from the production line.
In 1990 James Womack wrote a book called "The Machine
That Changed The World". Womack's book was a straightforward account of
the history of automobile manufacturing combined with a study of
Japanese, American, and European automotive assembly plants. The "lean
manufacturing" concept was popularized in American factories in large
part by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology study of the movement
from mass production toward production as written and described in
Womack's book.
A new phrase was coined, as to which is now commonly referred to as
"Lean Manufacturing."
