2. 1. Lean Remanufacturing : Reducing Process Lead Time

   Author : Jelena Kurilova-Palisaitiene; Erik Sundin; Bozena Poksińska; Mats Björkman; Martin Kurdve; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Circular Economy; Lean Production; Toyota Production System; Value Stream Mapping; Remanufacturing Process Challenges and Improvements; Process Efficiency;

   Abstract : Remanufacturing is a product recovery option in which used products are brought back into useful life. While the remanufacturing industry stretches from heavy machinery to automotive parts, furniture, and IT sectors, it faces challenges. READ MORE

4. 2. Lean Visual Management of Deviations in Product Development and Production - Coining Physical, Digital, and Hybrid Pulse Methodology

   Author : Onur Kaya; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lean management; Visualization; visual management; lean tools.; issue management; deviation management; disturbance management; lean;

   Abstract : Lean is a relatively new trend, and every company strives for lean aiming for creating more output while using less input by focusing on the customer via eliminating non-value adding waste. Lean started at Toyota within its production system. From production, it started to be used in product development, and later on to other various sectors. READ MORE

5. 3. What's Next? : Organising Complex Product Development with Lean

   Author : Caroline Ingvarsson; Mats Engwall; Lars Uppvall; Anette Hallin; Pascal Le Masson; KTH; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Lean Knowing-in-practice Work organisation; Product Development; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Management;

   Abstract : An everyday question asked during complex product development work is, ‘What to do next’? Not just because the development in itself is advanced and integrated, but also because it is planned and performed in large organisations, in difficult projects, and across organisational lines. There have been different approaches to try and reduce the difficulty of having to organise complex product development, primarily through using different kinds of management models. READ MORE

6. 4. Applying lean principles and set-based approaches in product development

   Author : Mikael Ström; RISE Research Institutes of Sweden; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Set-based design; Controlled convergence; Concept development; Lean product development; Lean transformation; Industrial introduction;

   Abstract : The research described in this thesis addresses the problem of transformation to lean product development (LPD) and how to introduce and support the use of set-based design (SBD) in the concept development process. The original description of SBD does not define how to generate, evaluate and reduce a set of design solutions. READ MORE

7. 5. Improving engineering change processes by using lean principles

   Author : Mikael Ström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lean; information; engineering change; principles; PLM; product development;

   Abstract : The purpose of this research was to test the usefulness of the 13 lean principles for product development by Morgan & Liker when improving an engineering change (EC) process. The EC-process was studied at four firms. The firms were active in three different industrial branches. Two of the firms are situated in Sweden and two in Finland. READ MORE
