THE KANBAN SYSTEM FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF PAINT

open access: yesReview of Administration and Innovation - RAI, 2006
This paper presents a case study for the project and implementation of a kanban system in a paint factory. The paint factory uses a continuous production system, which brings two main problems for the kanban system. The first is that of the number of kanbans in the system (that is, the determination of the amount of each batch to be manufactured).
