Abstract
In today’s global competitive environment there is a need for the casting set ups and foundries to develop the components in short lead time. Defect free castings with minimum production cost have become the need of this indispensable industry. Lean manufacturing (LM) is mostly enthused by the Toyota Production System (TPS) which has been absorbed on removal of waste and refining customer gratification. LM is a set of values, attitudes and business procedures to allow the execution of it, which is broadly recognized and applied since 1960.This project work addressed the various production processes that can be used in foundry industry, finding the problems existing in these processes, Gaining deep knowledge of lean manufacturing and lean tools, Implementing these lean tools practically in foundry industry at optimum level and Comparing the result of analysis.
