Analysis of the Delay in Production Process of Nickel Slider 55 918 with Value Stream Mapping Method in Zipper Manufacturing Industry

Abstract

The Lean Manufacture approach is a systematic approach to identifying and eliminating waste in the form of activity that does not give more value through continuous improvement. The Nickel Slider production process that occurs in the Zipper Manufacturing Industry still often delay in production. This delay is happened from the waste during the production process. The purpose of this research is to identify and analyze the factors causing waste in the production and can provide suggestions for improvement through the Value Stream Mapping method. Based on the result of analysis, the problem can be solved by using the Lean Manufacture approach using kaizen brust in Value Stream Mapping with proposed improvements using several tools such as Line Balancing, Kanban System (Pull System), and Therblig maps. The result from this research is a 12% reduction  in Value Added Time from 13735.56 seconds to 10804.75 seconds and reduction in Non Value Added Time by 45% from 18.5 days to 7 day so that the total production time has decreased by 44%.
