Usage of the VORNE 800XL production monitoring and indicator visualization system for the development of the project "Effect in a minute“

Abstract

Nowadays, in most of the manufacturing factories, entrepreneurs tries to “slim down” their processes. To achieve that they attempts to implement some of the “Lean Manufacturing” methodology’s methods and tools with better or worst effects. Most of the failures results from the wrong approach to that subject. Leaders wants their teams to do anything faster and cheaper but too often their teammates does not exactly know why they have to do something as they do not see the goal of them. The easiest way to improve the understanding of implementation of “Lean Manufacturing” is to train whole team and arrange workshops that can educate everyone and lead the team to the common objective. One of the ideas of such an activity is the project called “Effect in a minute” created by the students from the student research group called “Management” from University of Science and Technology from Cracow (AGH- Kraków). In this article, there will be described the practical aspect of such an activity and prospect of the project’s development based on the usage of production monitoring and indicator visualization system called VORNE 800XL.
