You mean lean manufacturing principles.
It is the term used for efficient manufacturing.
This term has become a "Buss word" for now, soon it will be known by something else.

Lean production is a administration philosophy focusing on help of the 7 wastes (Over-production, waiting time, Transportation, Over-processing, inventory, action and Scrap) in man made products. by eliminating waste, high quality is more advantageous, production time is decreased, and value is decreased. Lean "equipment" comprise consistent procedure prognosis (kaizen), "pull" production (by technique of kanban), and blunder-proofing (poka yoke). One necessary perception is that maximum expenditures are assigned even as a product is designed. many times an engineer will specify commonly used, probability-free supplies and approaches fairly than a lot inexpensive, powerful ones. This reduces mission probability, it really is, the price to the engineer, even as increasing monetary hazards, and reducing salary. solid agencies improve and review checklists to study product designs.
