| dc.description.abstract | KANBAN. CONWIP. CONWIP/KANBAN Hybrid Method.Production control systems have been widely discussed in the Production Engineering literature. The KANBAN system is the most known among professionals for the control and processing of materials in the shop floor environment due to its simplicity and competitive significance in the design of the Toyota production system. Analyzing possible disadvantages presented by this system, the CONWIP demonstrates that the KANBAN can be questioned in certain circumstances and upon certain variables of the product, demand, or production. The objective of this research is to Investigate, compare, and point out the advantages and disadvantages of KANBAN, CONWIP, and the CONWIP/KANBAN Hybrid Method. Based on the case study in a company that manufactures electromechanical components for valve monitoring and control, characterized by small lots, high customization, and uncertain demand, these methods were discussed in order to show, through the results, the differential combination of KANBAN and CONWIP in the CONWIP/KANBAN Hybrid method.</ref>. | |
