3. In this exercise you must create/sketch a Current State Value Stream Map for the process described below. Use the basic symbols shown in the presentation and the text to depict each step. The company producing the part is Huskie Metal Products Product Information: Product is for an off-road vehicle and it is made from stamped metal with resistance welding operations and assembly operations. The raw material is mild steel coil. The finished product is shipped to the customer, ATV INC., on a daily basis. Production Control Information Huskie Metal Products" (HMP) production control department receives the 30/60/90 day forecast from ATV Inc. and enters into their ERP system. ATV Inc. also sends a DAILY order to HMP's production control department. HMP electronically sends a 4-week forecast to Steve's Steel Inc. (SSI), who in turn delivers steel coils on Monday and Wednesday each week. Production Control dept. creates a weekly schedule, and that weekly schedule is distributed from the ERP system to each of the manufacturing processes in the line. The production control department sends a daily shipping schedule to the shipping department. Process Steps and observations: Step 1: 350 Ton Stamping Press with automatic feeding Observed inventory - 4 days of coils BEFORE Press Cycle Time: 2 seconds per part One operator Step 2: Auto-Tapper-thread holes . Observed inventory - 2.5 days of parts BEFORE Auto-Tapper Cycle Time: 45 seconds per part One operator 0 Step 3: Press Brake - fold into box shape . Observed inventory - 1.7 days of parts BEFORE Press Brake Cycle Time: 35 seconds per part One operator Step 4: Resistance Weld Observed inventory - 4.2 days of parts BEFORE Resistance Welder Cycle Time: 55 seconds per part . One operator Step 5: Assembly Observed inventory 3.5 days of parts BEFORE Assembly - Cycle time: 75 seconds per part . One operator o Step 6: Shipping . Observed inventory -4.0 days of parts BEFORE Shipping Final Step: Finished parts shipped to ATV Inc.daily. 3a) Create/Sketch the Value Stream Map in its' current state (10 pts each - 50 points total): Use correct symbols from book/presentation. - Show inventory points where they belong with correct inventory levels. - Show process data under each process. Show distribution of schedule information to each place it goes. Create the value added/wait cycle diagram under the manufacturing processes. 3b) Determine these values: What is the Production Lead Time? (10 points) What is the Total Processing Time? (10 points)
