Set-Up Reduction : Saving Dollars with Common Sense is a hands-on book for the applications-minded professional. It combines theory with experience and it will show you how to change "sense" into dollars. Learn how to achieve a 75% reduction in set-up time with a low cost/no cost solution. This book also guides your company to increased profits, increased uptime and improved flow. Set-up Reduction is best accomplished by developing a team of people working to insure the delivery of 100% quality parts in the right quantity at the right time at the right total cost. That means frequent, small production runs.
The ideal manufacturing objective is to perform set-ups so quickly that lot sizes of one can be accomplished. Set-up Reduction introduces a level of flexibility which allows companies to tap the capacity of all these areas to their fullest and to schedule the use of these resources based on customer demand. When a company can change its equipment over in minutes instead of hours, the result is a capacity increase, inventory reduction, quality improvement, cost optimization and flexibility to meet world competition.
