Function of kanban Communicates production and transportation information. Communicates production information.It tells what to produce and how many are required.Kanban must be produced in the order received. Provides pick-up and/or transportation information,which includes“where from”and“where to'locations.It can also, in some cases,indicate schedule times for pick-up. Prevents overproduction and excessive transportation by restricting in-bound raw material

Function of Kanban A tool for visual management Allows ordering of multiple lot quantities only to the extent of Kanban available to be replenished. Maintain the production quantity of a process to specific pre- determined lot quantity indicated on the Kanban. Serves as a work order indicating what has been produced and identifies the physical product. ·Improvement tool Reveals existing production problems by reducing the number of Kanban. Helps to reduce passage of defects from one area to another by identifying preceding processes
