“…Results show the decrease in 11 percent stations, decrease in 11.7 percent moving around, 16 percent time has been saved, 34.2 percent length decreases and 53 per cent transportation cost has been saved. Kikuchi et al (2007) aimed at applying OEE method to cost reduction by using KAIZEN technique in a semiconductor industry. The consumption of gases and chemicals (GAC) for a specific process was very high.…”

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to review the literature and provide an overview of the history, evolution and existing research on continuous improvement (CI). It reviews a large number of research papers in this field and presents the overview of various CI implementation practices demonstrated by manufacturing organizations globally. Design/methodology/approach -The paper systematically categorizes the published literature, analyzes and reviews it methodically. Findings -The paper reveals the important concepts, case studies and surveys in concerned with CI methodology. The contributions of CI programmes towards improving manufacturing performance of the organizations and CI values that underlies continuous improvement have also been highlighted. Practical implications -The literature on classification of CI has so far been very limited. The paper reviews a large number of papers in this field and presents the overview of various CI practices demonstrated by manufacturing organizations globally. Further the future implications have also been discussed for the smooth and effective implementation of CI practices in manufacturing organizations. Originality/value -The paper contains a comprehensive listing of publications on the field in question and their classification. It will be useful to researchers, professionals and others concerned with this subject to understand the significance of CI methodology.

“…The study deals with various aspects of Kaizen as a lean manufacturing tool and how improvements can be made by adopting practices of Kaizen in wire harness manufacturing companies. OEE method was applied to reduce the cost by using Kaizen technique to a semiconductor industry which results in cost reduction of 7% annually for the use of gases and chemicals [1]. Kaizen was adopted to reduce operational cost and improve efficiency [2].…”

In the cutthroat market, demand for higher-quality products is currently the most important task in front of organization and management looks for better effectiveness. In manufacturing units, high cost, declining profit boundaries, discrepancy of quality of products, and delivery of such products in the competitive market are the factors those have encouraged many organizations to focus on ways to increase the involvement of employees to improve quality and productivity. Kaizen is one of the employee contribution methods intended to bring together all level of workforce in an organization for setting principles of excellence and achieving better consequences. In this paper, it is tried to analyze the performance of Kaizen in a wire harness manufacturing unit which is considered for the study, and the paper presents a case study of the selected company to reduce rejections due to high contact gap in terminal that further confides decrement in failure cost.

“…[5] The QKD network using quantum repeaters could be realized in the future. [10] Except that, currently the performed QKD networks can mainly be classified into three paradigms: one is quantum channel switching paradigm, which is commonly realized by optical switch, [7,8] the other is WDM network using wavelength-division, [6,11] the third is the trusted repeater paradigm usually called the 'hop-by-hop' model. [9] In fact, the switching network or the WDM network is still a point-to-point QKD system, it need not trust intermediate sites.…”

We demonstrate a three-node active quantum key distribution (QKD) network with our previous two-way QKD system. An optical switch is used as a router to connect the two nodes. Adjacent nodes are connected by a 25 km optical fiber. The test over 11 h shows that our system can reduce the Raleigh backscattering efficiently in the absence of the storage fiber. Furthermore, the obtained average sifted key is about 1.2 kbps in the network, with high visibility and low quantum bit error rate in the long-time test.
