在任何时候，看板(相当于系统中的“能量”)的最大数量都与在制品的上限保持守恒。
The maximum number of Kanbans (the "energy" in the system) is fixed and physically conserves the upper limit of WIP at any given time.
图5所示的敏捷看板例子本身并没有实现“限制在制品的数量”、“连续流通”和“拉动式”特性。
"Limits WIP", "Continuous Flow" and "Pull" properties are not attained by the Agile Kanban example by itself, shown in Figure 5.
你从中可以看到看板的两种含义，一是“在维持连续流通的同时限制在制品数量”，而另一种是“改善”。
As you'll see here, there are roughly two different meanings of Kanban, one is "Limits WIP while sustaining Continuous Flow", and the other is "Kaizen".
拉动系统的要点是在需要的时候通过拉动前期的价值流，利用看板来限制在制品的数量。
The point of a pull system is to use a kanban board to limit work-in-progress by pulling from the previous phase of your value stream when necessary.
看板的目的是通过确保只有当下游工序需要时上游工序才生产零部件，进而最大限度地减少工序(process)之间的在制品(Work - In - process,WIP)或者库存。
Kanban's aim is to minimize WIP (Work-In-Process), or inventory, between processes by making sure that the upstream process produces parts only if its downstream process needs it.
看板支持：规划工具现在支持看板，包括一个故事版(story board)和在制品(WIP)限制。
Kanban support: The planning tools now support Kanban including a story board and Work-In-Progress (WIP) limits.
图4限定在制品数量的看板机制。
这样的看板面板有利于可视化地通知任务并限制在制品（处理中的任务）数量。
This Kanban Board helps visually signal tasks and limit WIP (tasks actively being worked on).
