Design/methodology/approach Initially, through a literature survey by using Delphi approach comprises continuous inputs from team experts, this devised 10 key strategies, which were further analysed hybrid multi-criteria decision-making approach. helped hierarchical structure...

Purpose Green manufacturing (GM) has received growing attention in the last few years. As today’s business environment is highly competitive, dynamic and volatile nature, GM seen as winning strategy to be adopted by manufacturers. In this scenario, successful implementation of manufacturers can give them an edge over their competitors. The purpose paper identify develop structural relationship among different factors for GM. Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire-based survey...

This paper presents an analysis of research on human resource (HR) barriers in lean implementation (LI) and also suggests a new model for successful LI. The objective this is to discuss role HR management, various threats challenges LI pertaining HR. A literature survey peer reviewed journal articles, notes, books are used methodology. It based interaction with managers, engineers, supervisors workers. evaluation has led the identification considers impact retirement programmes, career...

Ti6A14V is a well-known 'Difficult to Cut' material in the aerospace industry. Ti6Al4V shows strain hardening, poor thermal conductivity and chemical reactivity at elevated temperatures, which implies low machinability. This work presents an experimental investigation of 3D finish milling by Taguchi design experiments, having L25 array. The considered process parameters are cutting speed, feed, depth cut, tool type, coolant type computer aided manufacturing strategy. experimentation...
