Abstract:

Lean manufacturing can be considered as a business strategy and it has been proved to be an effective management philosophy for improving businesses in a competitive market by eliminating non-value added waste and improving in process operations. Value stream mapping (VSM) can be an extremely powerful tool, combining material processing steps with information flow as well as other important related data. This paper illustrates the review of VSM techniques and its benefits in machining industry. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the effective utilization of the VSM tools for process and productivity improvements by different authors.
