First of all, lean factory layout can help manufacturers improve production efficiency. In the traditional production mode, because the logistics and information flow between workshops are not smooth enough, the production cycle will become longer and the production cost will increase. Through lean factory layout, workshops can cooperate more and realize seamless connection of production lines, thus greatly reducing production time and improving production efficiency.
Secondly, lean factory layout can also effectively reduce inventory. In the traditional production mode, in order to cope with emergencies or tight delivery deadlines, factories will store a large number of spare parts and raw materials, which will not only occupy huge amounts of money, but also lead to waste due to expired and damaged materials. The "supermarket management" in lean factory layout can make the production workshop supply the required materials in time and greatly reduce the inventory.
Finally, lean factory layout can also improve product quality. In the traditional production mode, due to insufficient communication and coordination between workshops, incorrect assembly of parts, process defects and quality problems may occur. Through the "self-inspection system" and quality management system in lean factory layout, the whole process from raw material procurement to product delivery can be monitored and quality problems can be effectively prevented.
