  1. 1. Waste Analysis on a Production Line - A Case Study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

    Author : Sanna Treptow; Déspina Karida; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable manufacturing systems; Sustainable production; Lean production; Just in Time Production JiT ; Kanban; Waste; Environmental Value Stream Mapping EVSM ; Production Performance Matrix PPM ; Key Performance Index KPI ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study aims to assist Swedish company Clemondo AB in reducing waste in production, where the goal is to determine where waste appears as well as make suggestions for potential improvements, which are presented as Key Performance Indices (KPIs) and minimized manufacturing costs. Citation chaining is used to retrieve extant literature, while other productions and process-related information are gathered through observations and discussions. READ MORE

  4. 4. Organising the internal transport to increase lift trucks utilisation : A case study at a large manufacturing company

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : Meron Ogbatzion; [2022]
    Keywords : Internal transport; Lift trucks; Material handling; Lean; Transport waste; Time study;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to analyse the internal transport of a case company and develop a new approach to increase the utilisation rate of their lift trucks. The case study was conducted at a large manufacturing company in southern Sweden and limited to two of their production facilities, denoted PVT and Tage, with a total of 27 lift trucks. READ MORE

  5. 5. Production optimization using Discrete Event Simulation : Case study of Volvo Penta engine production line

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Antonio José Ramos Calderón; [2022]
    Keywords : DES; optimization; genetic algorithms; knowledge extraction; FACTS; MIMER;

    Abstract : Simulation allows decision-makers in modern industries analyse the outputs of specific systems, and predict future ones based on certain decision variables when in combination with optimization and Lean. This project studies the production line of boat engines in Volvo Penta at Vara (Sweden), carrying out different experiments based on a verified and validated model of the real production system using FACTS Analyzer in order to improve the key performance indicators whilst comparing the optimization performance of four genetic algorithms (NSGA-II, NSGA-III, PSO and DE) and extracting knowledge using data mining.
