Lean – principles and tools for a process industry (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit att ta fram vilka leanprinciper och leanverktyg som passar en processindustri med målet att minska ledtiden. För att kunna genomföra studien har en jämförelse mellan teori och verklighet gjorts där hjälp tagits av Lesjöfors industrifjädrar AB. Utmärkande aspekter för företagets produktion är långa led- och omställningstider, produktion i batcher med stora partistorkekar samt tryckande tillverkning. Litteraturstudien omfattar fem principer och fem verktyg. För att identifiera nuläget har en värdeflödeskartläggning genomförts samt intervjuer med anställda på företaget. När teori kopplas med empiri har lämpliga principer och verktyg utifrån de studerade 10 valts ut. De principer som har identifierats som lämpliga för en processindustri är standardiserat arbetssätt, ständiga förbättringar, utjämnad produktion. De verkyg som utefter principerna identifierats som lämpliga är SMED, 5S samt värdeflödeskartläggning. Dessa har sedan används i en sammanfattning i form av ett TPS-hus, unikt för produktionen på Lesjöfors industrifjädrar AB.

Abstract [en]

The aim of this bachelor thesis has been to identify which lean principles and lean tools that would suit a process industry with the goal of reducing lead times. In order to complete the study, a comparison between theory and reality has been made where assistance has been provided by Lesjöfors industrifjädrar AB. Key aspects of the company's production include long lead times and set up times, production in batches with large lots and push production. The literature study comprises five principles and five tools. To identify the current situation, a value stream mapping has been conducted and interviews with employees at the company. When theory is linked with empirical studies, suitable principles and tools based on the selected 10 have been chosen. These have then been used in a summary in the form of a TPS-house, unique to the production at Lesjöfors industrifjädrar AB.
