The purpose of continuous flow, also known as continuous improvement or continuous manufacturing, is to achieve a streamlined and efficient process that minimizes waste and maximizes productivity. It involves the constant flow of products or services through a well-designed system that eliminates bottlenecks and interruptions. The ultimate goal is to reduce cycle times, improve quality, and optimize resource utilization, ultimately leading to cost savings and improved customer satisfaction. Continuous flow is often used in manufacturing, production, and service industries to create a more sustainable and leaner operation.
