The five most important lean manufacturing principles. Inspired by Incorporating lean thinking and life
cycle assessment to reduce environmental impacts of plastic injection moulded, own table design.
The LCA system assesses environmental impacts by analyzing data inputs from manufacturing processes,
such as energy consumption, material usage, and time intervals. Additionally, this method entails setting
objectives to evaluate a product’s environmental impacts and collecting inventory data. It also involves
analyzing input and output data and interpreting the findings to understand environmental effects better.
