Object of Enterprise
•To Increase Profit
–Growth by Top & Bottom Line
–Living Standard Improves

2. 2
INCREASE PROFIT
×Selling Price = Cost + Profit

•For example,
suppose you need
to transport 12 tons
of material with a 4
ton capacity
truck…
12 TONS
1 ton
Capacity : 4 ton
Material Source: Toyota Training Handouts
What is Muri & Mura

7. 7
To make 2 trips,
carrying 6 tons at a
time is Muri (Strain)
(overburden)…
X 2 = MURI
What is Muri & Mura
Material Source: Toyota Training Handouts

8. 8
Making 6 trips,
carrying 2 tons at a
time is Muda
(waste)…
X 6 = MUDA
What is Muri & Mura
Material Source: Toyota Training Handouts

9. 9
A mixture of the two is
Mura
(imbalance)(unevenness)
= MURA
What is Muri & Mura
Material Source: Toyota Training Handouts

10. 10
3 trips, carrying 4 tons at a time, eliminates Muda, while at the
same time no causing Muri.
X 3 =
no muda,
no muri,
no mura
What is Muri & Mura
Material Source: Toyota Training Handouts

11. 11
Achieving such a balance everywhere in the company is one
of the primary aims of the Toyota production system.
Elimination of the “3Ms” is always in the Toyota employee’s
mind, as everyone tries to keep waste down without causing
overburden.
X 3 = NO 3M’s
X 2 = MURI
(over burden)

Elimination of MUDA (Waste)
What is MUDA
Operation = Work + MUDA
Work = Increases value of production
MUDA = Increases cost of production

16. 16
Will add cost of :-
–Tools

–Poor Life
–Scrap due to method change (Obsolete)
–Storage and upkeep
–Searching

Reducing Defects
•Fool proof devices are effective to reduce defects
•They are low –cost highly reliable devices or innovations that:
–Either will detect an abnormal situation before it occurs in a production
process.
–Or once it happens, will stop the machines or equipment and prevent
production of defective products.
