Abstract
Nowadays, the interest to lean manufacturing increases every year and a lot of aviation companies use it on their practice. At the same time, Internet technologies also entered in the production of modern aircrafts. For increasing quality and safety of aviation products, in this article it was suggested to use lean manufacturing and Internet of Things technologies for Russian and Chinese aircraft production systems. There is a successful case study of Boeing company, which achieves great results due to these technologies. For realizing this idea on the practice, at first, it is needed to model and analyze the implementation of this technologies on production system and understand is it profitable or not. In this paper, it was proposed to use Discrete Event Simulation method, which proves its imitation on the real practice and possibility of its realization. The results show that we can easily use ARENA software (which is based on DES modelling) for proving the efficiency of Lean and IoT technologies. In conclusion, it becomes obvious that due to the rapid development of Internet technologies it is necessary to integrate it with the lean manufacturing process and analyze its implementation.
Highlights
The concept of lean manufacturing, which was developed in 1950-s by Toyota company, increases the efficiency of production in different industries
We propose to use modeling methods to prove the effectiveness of lean manufacturing technologies and "Internet of things" and to determine its feasibility in practice
In this article there were analyzed the new technologies for aircraft manufacturer company: Lean Manufacturing and Internet of Things, which can significantly improve the production system
Summary
The concept of lean manufacturing, which was developed in 1950-s by Toyota company, increases the efficiency of production in different industries Nowadays, it is used in automobile industry, and in healthcare, ship production and aircraft industry as well. In other authors publications [1,2,3] the idea of integration Lean Manufacturing with Internet of Things has been already suggested. There are no publications about the implementation of this idea for aviation industry and its efficiency and profitability In this paper, it will be considered the Boeing’s successful implementation of these technologies and possibilities of its deployment to the Russian United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) or Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC). For proving the efficiency of technologies, it will be used simulation research methods
