Ways To Schedule Batch Processes With Kanban: - Pattern Production

This document discusses different methods for scheduling batch processes using kanban, including pattern production, lot making with a batch board, and using a triangle kanban. It provides steps for setting up a triangle kanban system, including determining changeover time available, setting the number of changeovers per day, establishing a batch factor and lot sizes for parts, and determining the trigger point for reordering. The goal is to balance production and changeover times to maximize efficiency.

Short exercise - Steps for setting up
triangle kanban*

Step 1: Determine time available for changeover work.


Step 2: Set the number of changeovers per day. Step
3: Establish a lot size for production. Step 4: Establish
a trigger point for reorder.

*Assumes part numbers have already been dedicated to run on certain machines
Step 1: Determine time available for non-
production work (1 machine*)
Part # Average demand Cycle time Required run Average Average
per day (pieces) Per piece time per day changeover time scrap rate
15487 200 40 sec. 136 min. 55 min. 1.5%
15488 300 45 sec. 228 min. 55 min. 1.3%
15489 500 40 sec. 339 min. 55 min. 1.5%
1,000 703 min.

Total 1-shift production time available (net breaks and lunch) 450 min.
Number of shifts x 2
Time available for production on 1 machine 1 day = 900 min.
Time required per day to meet average demand* - 703 min.
Net time available for set up and changeovers per day = 197 min.
* Taken from above chart on basic machine data

*The three part numbers dedicated to this molding machine


Step 2: Set the number of change over
events per day

197 min.
Non-production time available
Average downtime (not including set-up and changeover - 30 min.
times)
Time available for changeover work on 1 machine 1 day = 167 min.
Average changeover time ÷ 55 min.
Desirable number of changeovers per day = 3.04
Step 3a: Establish the batch factor

Number of part numbers on the machine


Batch Factor =
Number of C/O’s per day

In this 3 part numbers


molding = 1
3 C/O’s

Lot Size= 1 day of production per part number


Step 3b: Establish the lot size

15488 1 x 300 = 300

15489 1 x 500 =

1000 pieces
Step 4: Establish the trigger point for
reorder

Trigger point = Total lead-time to replenish Part
