Abstract

Waste is unnecessary for any kind of industry because it raises the manufacturing cost of products. For owners or clients waste is anything that cannot create any value. By effective lean production system it becomes possible to decline the generation of wastes and increase the productivity in any industries. So, it became very significant to identify lean wastes and its effects on productivity and manufacturing cost of RMG products. By this research work it was possible to categorize the lean wastes in four RMG industries. Motion studies during manufacturing also helped to bolstering the work. Strong willingness of management of RMG industries for increasing productivity and lowering the wastes level accomplished the study successful and finally seven dead wastes were recognized. According to lean manufacturing these dead wastes encompasses overproduction, more waiting time and bottlenecks, over transportation, excess inventory, more processing (re-works), excess motion and defects. These lean wastes could not contribute in adding value of different products. However, this research paper mainly underscored on seven lean wastages of RMG industries and its consequences for increasing production cost and hindrance of productivity due to greater production time.
