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--often in less than 10 minutes. The method you'll
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 using the
margin assists, summaries, and other features of the book to help
pull out exactly what you need.
One of the most effective ways to use this book is to read and
discuss it with other employees. The authors planned the book so
that it can be used this way, organizing the book into chunks of
information that can be covered in a series of short sessions. Each
chapter includes reflection questions to stimulate group
discussion. A "Learning Package "is also available (catalog
no.PP7126), which includes a leader's guide, overhead
transparencies to summarize major points, and color slides showing
examples of SMED applications in different kinds of companies.
