Impact analysis of flow variability in sizing kanbans
Revista Produção Online, 2014 The aim of this paper is to analyze the effects of variability flow, advocated by Factory Physics, in sizing Kanban production systems. The variability of flow presupposes that the variability of activities performed by a process is dissipated throughout

Electronic Kanban System for Rubber Seals Production
Engineering Journal, 2013 A key success for automotive suppliers relies on its on-time delivery and efficient manufacturing process. A case-study rubber seal manufacturer is using just in time (JIT) techniques, requiring efficient process flow with low wastes. However, the majority of the current processes still rely on workers’ expertise that can lead to process errors.

, 2007 Nowadays manufacturing plants have adopted a demand- driven production control system also known as just-in-time production (JIT). This greatly reduces inventory costs because the buffers between the processes act as a blocking mechanism to indicate when production should stop and when eventually it can continue.
