This paper presents the use of discrete event simulation to understand the concepts of lean manufacturing, including line balancing against Takt time, pull versus push manufacturing, Kanban inventory control, and process variability reduction. Several simulation models were used to evaluate the impact of these lean concepts on production, work in process, and station/operator utilization.
