Abstract - This Project aims to investigate the design and implementation of lean methodologies and process improvement in a machining industry. The study explores the benefits of lean principles, such as waste reduction and increased productivity in the context of a small-scale machining industry. The Project presents a case study of a small machining company that implemented lean principles to improve its operations. The case study focuses on the company's journey, from identifying the areas for improvement to implementing the lean principles and measuring the outcomes. Analyzing, Brainstorming ideas to change the machines and developing the jaws & fixtures for holding a specific component. The study provides insights into the challenges faced during the implementation of lean methodologies and process improvement in a small-scale machining industry and provides recommendations for overcoming challenges that arises. The findings of this study can be useful for small-scale machining companies looking to improve their operations by implementing lean principles & Process Improvements.
Key Words: lean methodologies, Process Improvements, waste reduction, increased productivity, developing the jaws & fixtures.
