| Abstract: | Kanbans have shown successful results in lowering inventory and shortening lead time in repetitive production system. Unfortunately, such systems are not applicable to production environments with dynamic characteristics. In this article a modified kanban system, the generic kanban system, is proposed for such dynamic environments. The generic kanban system behaves similarly to the push system except that it is more flexible with respect to system performance and more robust as to the location of the bottleneck. |
