The book is about applying Lean manufacturing principles to
industrial maintenance in order to improve the efficiency and be
able to do more with the same (or less) resources. By industrial
maintenance we mean the maintenance that takes place in factories
and industrial facilities. The book is the result of multiple
improvement projects carried out by the authors in various
industrial settings and sectors in the past 10 years.The approach
works and can be applied in any industry. It yields results without
investment. The book is a step-by-step guide that takes the reader
through the maintenance process, from equipment failure to finished
repair. In each step of the process, the typical inefficiencies are
explained and tools are given to improve the process. The book is
meant to be used as a guide in an improvement journey. The
improvement approach presented in the book is very close to the
shop floor and instructs the reader to engage with all team members
in the maintenance department in every step of the process, in
order to make the improvements sustainable. If one looks at the
main market indexes, between one third and one half of companies on
those indexes belong to the industrial sector: automotive, power
generation, basic materials, chemicals, consumer goods, et cetera.
Those companies spend on average 2 - 5% of plant replacement value
per year on maintenance. About one third of this cost is
maintenance labor. The maintenance work that gets done every day in
factories around the world is typically inefficient, from a Lean
perspective: time is wasted, different tasks are not properly
coordinated, job durations are overestimated and job plans, when
they exist, are thus "inflated" to cover up the inefficiency. All
this happens because maintenance tends to be the "forgotten" area
of efficiency in industrial companies, as much of the improvements
are carried out on the (literally) productive areas of the
factories. When companies set out to "improve" maintenance, they
typically do it through budget cuts that can risk the reliability
of the equipment. The authors believe there is a better way to do
more with the same resources through a careful review of the
current way of working and the introduction of Lean. With this book
, the authors try to bring to maintenance managers and
practitioners the tools they need to quickly improve efficiency (in
a matter of weeks) without any investment.

Das vorliegende Segelhandbuch "Rumpf und Rigg" erklart in kurzen
Worten und detaillierten Abbildungen den Aufbau und Betrieb eines
Grossseglers. Anhand der Beschreibung einer traditionellen Bark
wird die Wirkungsweise der einzelnen Segelarten, die Funktion und
Handhabung der zugehorigen Leinen sowie die Durchfuhrung der
wichtigsten Segelmanover anschaulich erlautert. Auch ist ein kurzes
Kapitel uber die Grundlagen der Wetterkunde enthalten. Es ist fur
Mitsegler und Stammcrew-Mitglieder gleichermassen hilfreich. Da
heute, vor allem in Deutschland, die Traditionsschiffe von
Hobby-Seemanner und -Seefrauen betrieben werden, kann es sehr gut
zur Auffrischung des bereits erworbenen Wissens vor und wahrend
einer Seereise genutzt werden. Durch das kompakte
Taschenbuchformat, kann es jederzeit griffbereit mitgefuhrt werden.
Der Autor, Torsten Dederichs, hat sein Wissen als Toppsmatrose an
Bord der Alexander von Humboldt erworben und mit Erfahrungen an
Bord anderer Schiffe, zum Teil auch international, abgegliche
