A PULL PRODUCTION SYSTEM UTILIZING THE DISCIPLINE OF KANBANS IS AN IDEAL APPROACH TO HOLISTICALLY MATCH INTELLIGENT PRODUCTION TO THE CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT/KAIZEN PHILOSOPHY. THIS PAPER WILL SHOW WHY A PULL/KANBAN MANUFACTURING SYSTEM IS ESSENTIAL, WHY WORK CELLS PROVIDE AN IDEAL VEHICLE TO EMPOWER WORKERS TOWARD THE ESTABLISHMENT OF SELF-DIRECTED TEAMS, AND HOW TO IMPLEMENT A PULL SYSTEM IN THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY. THIS PAPER IS BASED ON A SYSTEM IMPLEMENTED AT A MAJOR MANUFACTURER OF MICROWAVE POWER TRANSISTORS AND MODULES.
