Applying this tool in other areas is an interesting issue; it involves particular considerations and adaptation. In this research work explained that how the traditional style of manufacturing production system shift to the application of modern techniques of lean in one of the manufacturing industries to improve the flow of production system and demand processing by reducing line intersections with optimal usage of available facilities. value stream mapping (VSM) have been used to represent the production flow line. E draw max software has used to develop the simulation models, with applying pull system of lean tools for the modified status instead of the push system that has used in the traditional style of production. Thus, numbers of add values (AV) have been obtained over several periods of run-time for the designed simulation models. Then a future state map is drawn to show how things should work for best competitive advantage. Value Stream Mapping helps to identify the current flow of material and information in processes for a family of products, highlighting the opportunities for improvement that will most significantly impact the overall manufacturing production system of company. Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a very comprehensive tool to that allows an organization to identify sources of waste and implements process improvements. The present work represents a case study of a glass manufacturing unit producing glass of various thicknesses reveal that production lead time is one of the barrier in obtaining the desired production rate. The work carried out in this study optimizes the production lead time through software planning reduces the lead time. The decrease in lead time accelerates the production rate results in higher production. Keywords: - Value stream mapping, lean manufacturing, and implementation, pull system, push system. INTRODUCTON Lean manufacturing is a philosophy as well as a set of tools and techniques that focus to find and eliminate entire waste from system. The term lean was preliminary voguish after the book “the machine that changed the world”.[4] as such [2]describes lean as a family of connected methodology that focus to stream line and valuable production process. In conventional sense lean can be used as an alternative way of organizing mass production. There are five principles of lean that makes lean more effective and efficient. 1> Precise specification of value by specific product 2> Recognize the value stream for every product. © 2017, IRJET
