Lean Manufacturing Training

Would your company like to:

• Decrease Floor Space Usage by 50%
• Decrease W.I.P. by 85%
• Decrease Lead Time by 85%
• Improve Customer Service with Less Inventory
• Improve Productivity by 20%

 

These improvements can be accomplished by using lean manufacturing as a method of eliminating waste in manufacturing processes through continuous improvement and constant focus on the needs of the customer. The overall goals of a lean organization are the elimination of non-value added processes, quicker set-up and response times, and the reduction of inventory. A number of tools or core methods are utilized when transitioning to a lean production system. These tools are interrelated and are often used concurrently. The tools include:

• Value Steam Mapping
• Kaizen
• 5S
• SMED
• Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
• Cellular Manufacturing/One-Piece Flow Systems
• Just-in-time (JIT) Production Systems/Kanban
• Standard Work

 

We train by implementation, transferring knowledge of the lean principles to your employees while having immediate impact on your bottom line.
