Revisiting of Frugal Manufacturing System

  • Manoj Kumar Agrawal

Abstract

Waste free manufacturing with economically by using a very different application of the standard principles and steps for creating a frugal environment, begins this true revolution by zeroing in on the “how to” for implementing a rapid change from conventional mass(batch) manufacturing to frugal manufacturing. What waste free manufacturing offers instead are the principles, tools, techniques, steps and keys on how  to deploy globally competitive manufacturing in a relatively short period of time and manage the disciplines required to make a plant almost entirely waste free. Frugal excellence is a coordinated response to today’s highly competitive environment. It roots lie in manufacturing and are strongly influenced by the production system principles. Frugal manufacturing philosophy asks for elimination of wastes hidden in the manufacturing system by providing most economical efforts. This paper highlights the basic concepts of frugal manufacturing philosophy, its components, principles of frugal innovation, and major benefits. Ideas presented in the paper can be applied by different investigators for detailed investigation on different aspects such as performance index, productivity improvement so on. .
