Value stream mapping, a lean manufacturing tool, which originated from the TPS, is known as “material and information flow mapping.” This mapping tool uses the techniques of lean manufacturing to analyze and evaluate certain work processes in a manufacturing operation. This tool is used primarily to identify, demonstrate and decrease waste, as...

Due to a higher degree of digitalization, which results in an informed, linked, and decentralized development, industrial production processes have been transformed in recent years. This latest stage is also referred to as “The Fourth Industrial Revolution” (Helbig 2013; Hermann et al., 2016). Industry 4.0’s central concept is to use new technology...

Manufacturing is a leading energy consumer of the world along with being the aspects for prosperity. With increasing concerns for the environment, countries are being coaxed to make their industries energy efficient. This has led to research that attempts to analyze means and methods to develop energy-efficient machines or reduce energy consumption...

Value stream mapping is an effective tool of lean manufacturing to reduce the wastage in any process by segregating value added and non-value added activities. The present work uses the concept of value stream mapping and developed energy value stream mapping to address the non productive energy consuming processes. This paper focuses on achieving...

The purpose of this paper is to present an interpretation of recent progress in manufacturing systems from the perspective of control. We believe that this community has a vocabulary and a view of systems that can be helpful in this area. However, in order for this group to make that impact, it is essential that they learn the problems and terminol...

With all the new technologies synchronizing the world into a fist, Microsystems is the leading demand of the market. Until recently a decade ago traditionally watch parts were considered to be the micro components one can think off. Microsystems has evolved greatly in the past few decades, recent changes in society & demand have forced us to manufa...
