i. From the point of view of Technical /commercial knowledge /cost reduction/ Availability of time, the organization suggested to take this topic, which is considered to be useful and meaningful ii. Now a days wastes is a major problem in industries hence it is very important reduce it. So lean manufacturing is a very important technique to reducing the wastes.
iii. Lean manufacturing is interesting subject to us and also has a good feature

Activities performed which the customer is not willing to pay for when
purchasing our product. These are activities that our customer does not want, but our processes require them in order to complete the value added tasks.

Waste 2: Inventory
Inventory creeps up in many places Raw Material, WIP, Finished goods, Any material waiting for value added work should be considered waste.
Excess materials: Ties up cash. Is prone to damage. Requires more space. Requires extra labor to move around. Makes visual management more difficult. Hides other defects (how to distinguish between scrap
and inventory).

Waste 3: Time
Time is a valuable resource. Dont spend time on non value added activities. Instead, spend it either value adding or on finding more ways to reduce waste.
Waiting for a part, waiting for an order Waiting / Searching for tools

Waste 4: Defects
Defects occur when people make mistakes. Purchased material should be defect-free Machines sometimes produce defects Operation and manufacturing methods are left up to the individual to develop Oral instructions are often misunderstood.

PROCESSED WORKPIECE
1.
The operator picks up an unprocessed workpiece. The operators moves a hand to push a button. The third step is the actual pushing of the button.

The operator moves her hand to pick up the processed workpiece. The processed workpiece is moved to the finished goods pile. The operator moves to pick up the next unprocessed workpiece.

Waste 7: Space
Will saving a few square feet really make a difference?
The more space required to build product, the more of our potential profits go into plant rental, tax payments, etc But it is deeper than that: If we use more space than is necessary to produce, we will inevitably be incurring more motion and energy to achieve this output. Even if space reduction will not reduce the rent, it will have benefits on our production activities. Also, a surplus of space invites other production headaches such as:
Inventory Damaged Goods Trash and Scrap Etc

Cylinder Liners
A cylinder liner is a cylindrical part to be fitted into an engine block to form a cylinder. It is one of the most important functional parts to make up the interior of an engine. This is called Cylinder liner.
The table contains operations, process, Machine, value added and non value added (Waiting, loading, unloading time) activities....... For the completion of one wet liner the various operation performed/machines used are Listed in the following table .by collecting all the details from these process we have obtained value added and non value added activities in terms of time (min, sec). The data is collected for number of wet liners, but we have listed only for two wet liners.

time
To start machining they need minimum 150-200 pieces hence its taking more time for waiting. If there is fast dispatch, company will stop this process and send the workers for fast dispatch, for this waiting time increases. One shift working time is 8hours, but workers works only 6.5 hours shift. They are taking more time to change setting of machine. Transforming the pieces from one machine shop to another machine shop. There is not smooth flow of pieces. Process goes in zigzag shape. Due to Semi finish and heat treatment delay waiting time increases. They are committed to do minimum 140 liners per shift but they are not achieving it. Due to power fluctuation and labor problem waiting time of liners increases. They are not delivering the product to customer in schedule time
Observations
Suggestions
Proposed Layout for Wet Liners
In the existing layout the various operations are carried out in two machine shop If they implement Ushaped .All the machines can be provided in the shop floor instead of two shop floors, hence save the space Eliminating the Workers leads in reducing the Labor cost (Existing 8 labors are working, by applying Ushaped layout; we can reduce up to 3 workers). Implementing another CNC machine (In existing 2 operation are done in one CNC machine in Machine shop 01) production can be increased.

If Liners are moved in linear form then, Considering the highest value added time in operation In Wet Liners 4th operation is taken as Bottle Neck, First component = 46 min For second component it takes time 8 40 to come out. 840 * 100 = 840 + 46 min =886 At present the time taken to prepare a 100 wet liner component is 5765 min ,After implementing lean technique the time required to prepare a 100 wet liner component is 888 min In Air Cooled Liners 7th operation is taken as Bottle Neck, For first component = 56 min For second it takes time 9 min to come out 9 * 100 = 900 + 56 = 956 min At present the time taken to prepare a 100 Air Cooled liner component is 3776 min. After implementing lean technique the time required to prepare a 100 wet liner component is 956 min.

Conclusion
Business activities can contain enormous quantities of built-in waste (7 waste). The greatest obstacle to the waste's removal is usually failure to recognize it. Lean manufacturing includes techniques for recognition and removal of the waste. This delivers an overwhelming competitive advantage
