Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Industry 4.0 technology coordinates intelligent equipment throughout the manufacturing process, and Lean Six Sigma (LSS) improves production efficiency and effectiveness. The marriage of Lean Six Sigma and Industry 4.0 makes for a solid partnership that supports sustainable production development. Integrating LSS with Industry 4.0 is critical for organizations to leverage diverse interactions and use advanced technology for employee improvement. LSS tools can facilitate Industry 4.0 technology implementation and sustainable innovation in manufacturing. The concept of customized mass production and innovative products offers opportunities for advancements in LSS techniques, as workers can utilize technology's potential for customization and product development. The aim of this study is to enhance knowledge of the synergistic relationship between Lean Six Sigma (LSS) and Industry 4.0 by reviewing current literature and gathering information through a thematic review. The objective is to generate new frameworks and viewpoints. The goal is to propose a framework for sustainable manufacturing based on the significant key elements that result from the issues raised.
