“…Lean manufacturing techniques has proven to be positively effective in most of the manufacturing fields [59], like metal industry, automotive industry, hospitals [60], textile industry, for years. Hence, most of the manufacturers wanted to adopt this manufacturing techniques to increase their financial performance [61], or the ergonomic layout of the company [62] or the sustainability of the work [63], by using Just in Time, waste reduction and detect-free production [64] techniques. Many new industries are trying to test whether lean manufacturing is applicable for their sector or not.…”

Many manufacturing cost reduction initiatives have been introduced over past three decades including lean manufacturing. Waste reduction and efficiency improvement are the main objectives of this initiative. It is developed from a set of tools and techniques and can fit nicely in cost focus or cost leadership competitive advantage strategies. But, keeping competitive advantage under the market circumstances are getting harder with growth of production quantity and product diversity. Therefore, paper's focus is lean manufacturing implementation trends and issues within the various manufacturing sector. Successes and failures of implementation of lean manufacturing in some industries are discussed. It was found that lean principles are good source of competitive advantage, it is applicable for many industries and its expansion and discussion are significantly progressing. The biggest threat in implementing lean is lack of understanding the concept but those who engage consultants were more successful.

“…The reasons to automate manufacturing processes include increased quality and efficiency demands, as well as the presence of hazardous working conditions and the high cost of specialized manual laborers (Botti et al, 2017). Granell et al (2006) conducted a survey with the aim of discovering the perception of production managers and manufacturing engineers working in industry about concepts such as levels of automation and automation strategy, and to determine the current status of manufacturing and automation issues.…”

“…takt time, cycle time and work in progress. Debevec et al [28] have proposed a an innovative approach through virtual production performing, with major advantage of the concept that the virtual factory (VF) does not consume any material, resources or energy -operate only with data. Real production process is not interrupted and consequently the equipment is not occupied and cannot be damaged.…”

In this writing paper an analysis of production system for assembly of cable harness from the point of the time for assembly and losses in working process has been implemented. A suggestion has been made according to a methodology for advancement in assembly system based on Lean concept. Based on this suggested methodology an optimization of numbers of working stations has been executed. The obtained results point out that efficient implementation of Lean concept in assembly process of cable harness is possible. At the end are given the appropriate conclusions and directions of future researches.Abstrakt U ovom radu je izvršena analiza proizvodnog sistema za montažu kablovskih snopova od trenutka montaže sa fokusom na gubitke u radnom procesu. Napravljen je predlog prema metodologiji za unapređenje u montažnom sistemu zasnovanom na Lean konceptu. Na osnovu predložene metodologije izvršena je optimizacija broja radnih stanica. Dobijeni rezultati ukazuju na to da je moguća efikasna implementacija Lean koncepta u procesu montaže kablovskog snopa. Na kraju se daju odgovarajući zaključci i pravci budućih istraživanja. Ključne reči montaža, lean, kablovski snop
