Abstract
This paper deals with Master Production Schedule to give a broad outline of the requirements for resources at different work centers in the production industry. Using a pull system in MPS for the purpose of deciding appropriate resource requirements of work stations, this system is not used to decide the production rate for each workstation. In the pull system, the information regarding material move is the same as the push system. But the information concerning processing of parts or build schedule is given by the subsequent process. Hence the material direction and build schedule information direction opposite to each other. A kanban in a pull system is a card attached to a standard container that issues the production and withdrawal of parts between work stations. Kanban system is used to control the production of parts. Kanban system is used to reducing waste at every workstation and improves production as well as the quality of the product. The present article briefly explains of kanban system and how to use this as a tool for managing production as well as inventory.
