Description

The powerful knowledge contained in this book can make your workplace more productive, your job simpler, and everything more satisfying. It’s about how to do equipment or product changeovers in record time–continuously in less than 10 minutes. The method you can learn here is called SMED, short for “Single-Minute Exchange of Die” (the “single” here means a single-digit number of minutes).

Developed from a longer book, A Revolution in Manufacturing: The SMED System (cat no. PP9903), written for managers, this book is written for frontline production and assembly associates. It presents an overview of the reasons why SMED is important for companies and employees, sets out the three basic stages of SMED, and then devotes a separate chapter to each of these stages. The first chapter of the book is like an “owner’s manual” that tells you how to get the most out of your reading time by the use of the margin assists, summaries, and other features of the book to help pull out exactly what you wish to have.

One of among the finest how one can use this book is to read and discuss it with other employees. The authors planned the book so that it may be used this way,  organizing the book into chunks of information that may be covered in a series of short sessions. Each chapter includes reflection questions to stimulate group discussion. A Learning Package is also to be had (catalog no.PP7126), which incorporates a leader’s guide, overhead transparencies to summarize major points, and color slides showing examples of SMED applications in different kinds of companies.
