| Summary: | Optimization of streamlined process flow is very important in the production floor of textile industry, so that the delivery of finish product can meet shipping schedule with smooth operation process. This research is focused on analyzing the best way to improve operation flow layout that focus on walking tester time and identifying the wastages that can be reduced at physical tests area as well as investigating the effects of the improvement after applying the Lean Manufacturing. The main objective of this study is to identify the efficiency way to improve the productivity in physical tests especially weight test and washing test for color fastness by using Lean Manufacturing and some Lean Six Sigma. The data is collected from the time study at textile testing processes and be analyzed by using standard work analysis, Standardized Work Chart (SWC) and Standardized Work Combination Table (SWCT). Then, the new layout is designed from the implementation of Kaizen projects. This study enables the company to identify wastes as well as improving their delivery on time and reducing the motion in operation sequences, so that the workplace ergonomics assessment can be organized to have more efficient working environment. |
