What is pull production in enterprises? What is push production?

Pull production is the technical support of just-in-time system, one of the two pillars of Toyota's production mode. This is also the production method of Ono Taiyi with super imagination and drawing lessons from American supermarkets. Compared with the past push production, the former job "pushes" the parts to the latter job for processing. In pull production, the latter job requires the former job to manufacture the required parts according to how many products need to be processed. "Kanban" is a tool to transfer this information between work and operate the system.

Corresponding to pull production is push production. In push production, every process should be produced according to the production plan as far as possible, and the production task should be completed as soon as possible, regardless of whether the next process is needed at that time. The traditional production system is generally push production, which will cause the accumulation of goods.
