Development of a Teaching

Tool for Setup Time Reduction


using Lean Principles
Presented by
Amey Vidvans

IE 550-Manufacturing Systems

Why reduce setup time?


Reduced inventory due to single piece flow
Reduction in cycle times
Room for continuous improvement
Reduction in variability

e = o2+ ts2(cs2/Ns+ (Ns-1)/Ns2)

Flexibility of product mix

Ways to reduce setup time


Identify elements(Internal and External) and
waste
Incorporate Automation
Eliminate adjustment
Eliminate use of tools
Incorporate modular design
Incorporate Quick action mechanisms

Wastes
The Seven Wastes of Lean Manufacturing are;
Transport
Inventory
Motion
Waiting
Over-Processing
Overproduction
Defects

Identifying wastes in the old


setup
Activity

Analysis

Removing and bolting


on new die

Use of non standard


bolting, looking for tools

Installing new punch

Adjustment of
orientation and bolting

Feeder

Adjusting according to
new incoming strip
width, screwing

Incorporation of changes

Punch adjustment and


bolting eliminated

Loss of washers and need for


wrench eliminated

Adjustment and need for screwdriver eliminated

Quick changeover

Salient features
Eliminates Tools, free to use both hands in
setup
Standardised modular design
Quick action clamping and bolting
Fast changeover
Eliminates feeder adjustment

Time study of old conventional

Activity

Time taken

Removing nuts and die

2m15s+40s=2m55s

Fixing new die and bolt

18s+1m58s=2m16s

Feeder adjust

1m17s

Punch removal and installation

20s+31s=51s

Total time

7m19s

Time study of improved


system
Activity

Time taken

Removing die and fasteners

21s+44s=1m5s

Fixing die and fasteners

20s+15s=35s

Punch removal and installation

2s+2s=4s

Feeder adjust(remove and fix)

18s+40s=58s

Total Time

2m42s

Looking at other options, we can reduce this time further

Conclusion
The time study conducted on the various
elements reveals that the average time
reduces by 63% by incorporating Lean
Principles.
There is always room for continuous
improvement.
