Description of the module:

 

Flow simulation from using the Kanban game (8 hours)


Since the beginning of last century, many working methods have been implemented as Taylorism, Fordism: first methods that used the line work.

Then, with the Toyotism, we used methods from the client's request, so we had to use tools such as Kanban to run these methods.


Kanban considers that "Making prematurely is as bad as making late. All stocks are enemies for financial reasons and adaptation to demand." In a workshop production, this means that an upstream station must produce what is requested by its downstream position itself must produce what is asked by his own position and so downstream more ... the position as far downstream as not to produce to meet customer demand.
In this context, the production is pulled downstream from controls.

KANBAN is a mechanism to enslave the production or supply of a component to the consumer that is made.

This step aims to:
- Educate students to "pull" flow
- To compare the pull flow and the push flow

This simulation will be followed by tutorials for calculating the parameters of system management.
