In a Just-in-Time (JIT) production system with Kanbans, as used by the Japanese, the number of Kanbans employed at each workcenter remains relatively constant from month to month even though demand may change, This occurs because of the unique (and stable) conditions inherent in the production environment of Japanese firms. However, a number of American firms have considered or attempted the implementation of a JIT system without a similar production environment, thus, necessitating that the number of Kanbans at each workcenter be adjusted periodically. In this paper, a procedure for dynamically adjusting the number of Kanbans at workcenters in an unstable production environment is presented and analyzed. The adjustment methodology is presented in a step-by-step manner. This is followed by three examples presented within the context of a simulation model of a hypothetical shop. The first example will illustrate the methodology while the last two examples will demonstrate how well the methodology reacts to the dynamics of the shop operation. |
