LEAN THINKING
Key Principles of Lean Thinking
VALUE - what customers are willing to pay for
VALUE STREAM - the steps that deliver value
FLOW - organizing the Value Stream to be continuous
PULL - responding to downstream customer demand
PERFECTION - relentless continuous improvement (culture)
--- Lean Thinking, Womack and Jones, 1996
Defining Lean
Lean is:
A systematic approach to identifying and eliminating
waste (non-value added activities) through continuous
improvement by flowing the product at the pull of the
customer in pursuit of perfection.

A problem may occur when a change is made either because the order
changes, the equipment goes down, or material is not available .

Quick Changeover (Set-up Reduction)
Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED)
a series of techniques for changeovers of production
machinery in less than ten minutes (single digit
minutes)
Set-up Reduction Program Goals
To achieve smaller lots
To maintain consistent quality
To minimize inventory
To reduce lead times
To address frustration of setup personnel
