Driving efficiencies with digital lean manufacturing

July 4, 2022

Lean is a set of principles for reducing waste and increasing productivity. However, despite its manufacturing roots, lean may be used in any process-driven environment, regardless of the industry. Digital lean is not a new set of lean principles; rather, it enhances lean ideas to make their implementations more impactful. While quality systems such as ERP, show frequent reports on operations as they affect the business and plant financials, many digital lean systems and innovations offer detailed information on all areas of the process.

According to a recent study, lean principles, with an emphasis on cost reduction, waste removal, and dependence on allowing customer needs to drive operations, have played a vital role in creating efficiency throughout organizations.

While lean principles have long been used in manufacturing to drive efficiency and reduce waste, adding digital technologies to lean can take your company to a whole new level.

The WrxFlo team have many years of experience leading continuous improvement programs globally, which led to the creation of WrxFlo; to deliver Industry 4.0 solutions taking these operational benefits to a new level for our customers.

Benefits of digital lean implementation:

  • It supports continuous learning by utilizing data.
  • It reduces operational complexity on the shop floor.
  • It transforms preventative maintenance into predictive maintenance.
  • In the case of product defects, real-time data aids in the rapid identification of underlying causes.
  • It helps factories to make data-driven decisions by shifting decision making from one rooted in experience and judgment.
  • Sensors, a feature of digitalization, can monitor working conditions and trigger an alarm when hazardous conditions are detected.
  • It improves supply chain management by allowing factories to anticipate market conditions and avoid empty shelves/unfulfilled orders, which is far more impactful than traditional methods.

How to implement digital lean during your digital transformation journey

  1. Analyse Current Processes: Before introducing any new process or technology, it is critical to thoroughly analyse current processes. Without a comprehensive grasp of the prior procedures employed, there is a high risk of replicating old ineffective procedures, which will inevitably lead to failure.
  2. Platform solutions such as the WrxFlo solution should be implemented so that data obtained may be integrated across all systems, consolidated and analysed en masse.
  3. Contact the WrxFlo team to Optimize Digital Transformation. WrxFlo specializes in digital transformation and six sigma methodologies. We’re here to help you navigate your digital journey and provide assistance where necessary.

The CEO and founders of WrxFlo have walked in your shoes for 20 years when building, designing and running operations globally. They are experts in the field, and they can ensure a smooth transition into a more digitalized future for your business.
