摘要
Lean manufacturing philosophy aims to enhance operation efficiency by eliminating wastes, which are considered non-value added activities that increase costs and reduce profits in the competitive marketplace. In this study, the lean manufacturing concepts were used using the value stream mapping, to highlight areas of improvement and eliminate wastes in a thyme manufacturing line in a food factory in Jordan. The data were collected using motion and time study concepts from the factory, and both the current and future state value stream maps were constructed. The results showed that when joining packing and labelling operations in the thyme manufacturing line, the lead time was successfully reduced by 13.57%. Copyright © 2024 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
