Lean manufacturing with motion over production inventory and transportation

Description:

The image is a PowerPoint slide titled "Lean Manufacturing with Motion Over Production." It describes various inefficiencies that can occur in a production process, identified by the acronym 'TIMWOOD', which stands for seven types of waste according to Lean manufacturing principles:

1. Transportation: 

Unnecessary movement of products between processes, which can lead to delays and increased costs.

2. Inventory: 

Excess products and materials not being processed, which ties up capital and space.

3. Motion: 

Unnecessary movements by people, which may not add value to the product and can lead to inefficiency.

4. Waiting: 

Time when work-in-progress is not being processed, which can lead to longer lead times and inefficiency.

5. Over Production: 

Producing more than is needed or before it is needed, leading to excess inventory.

6. Over Processing: 

Doing more work or higher quality work than required by the customer, leading to wasted resources and time.

7. Defects: 

Production that does not meet quality standards, resulting in rework or scrap, which are both wastes.
