Abstract

The aim of the article is to present a different look on opportunities for improvement in the production process. Lean as a concept is evolving and searching for new effective ways to reduce losses and waste. Introduction of lean management into research and development processes might be a way to overcome those restrictions. Prototyping of products and development of new devices and machines to perform the process are often completely separate tasks, whereas designing machines and devices embodying precisely defined functions is a way of speeding up the production, avoiding losses and improving efficiency, even by increasing savings on equipment, improving the quality of our products and other methods. This article presents one of the tools of the lean concept, the moonshine workshop.

Keywords: moonshine workshop, lean management.
