Modern-day factories do not consist merely of machines working on assembling products; they form an ecosystem within which there is a coordinated flow of time, information, and materials. As indicated in research, poor production synchronisation leads to 30% decrease in total equipment efficiency.
Having an understanding of what the 7 flows in manufacturing are necessary in enhancing visibility and developing a resilient production environment. The 7 flows make up the fundamental structure of the manufacturing flow system.
