DESCRIPTION:
Hao said Highly recommend this seller. item as expected. Highly recommend this seller!!!. "A really USEFUL book" according to A Customer. Before reading this book, i had no certain opinions about SMED system. There was a lack of knowledge and i could not apply this technique properly in the factory which I am working for. Now, i am applying SMED technique and decreasing setup times sharply even not under ten minutes. This book opens doors for its reader. Pay money and take it. !. Very good book on Set Up Time Reduction F. H. Van Saarloos Very good book if your interested to reduce setup / changeover times. The book is very easy to read although in some cases it keeps repeating itself. When you think logical you could already figure out 75% on how to improve changeover before reading the book, but for the last 25% this book is an absolute must. A lot of the examples are car manufacturing related, but this I not a problem because the writer tries to give you the tools on how SMED can be reached, regardless which industry you are working in.
It offers the most complete and detailed instructions available anywhere for transforming a manufacturing environment in ways that will speed up production and make small lot inventories feasible. The critically acclaimed text is supported with hundreds of illustrations and photographs, as well as twelve chapter-length case studies.. Written by the industrial engineer who developed SMED (single-minute exchange of die) for Toyota, A Revolution in Manufacturing provides a full overview of this powerful just in time production tool. The author delves into both the theory and practice of the SMED system, explaining fundamentals as well as techniques for applying SMED
