4.0 out of 5 stars Detailed and practical guide to Flow., April 16, 2004

This review is from: Fundamentals of Flow Manufacturing (Paperback)
Though the title states "fundamentals", I think this book goes beyond that in its treatment of flow. I don't like "theory" books so I was very pleased with the practical approach taken by the authors. Most lean/JIT books cover flow, but rarely in enough detail; Fundamentals of Flow Manufacturing does a good job of balancing adequate detail without overloading the reader. I also have to complement the authors on sticking to the topic and not getting sidetracked into other lean topics.

Of particular interest are the detailed calculations associated with setting up flow lines and kanbans. I also appreciated the discussion of the implications of manufacturing software and flow. This book is very well organized and a moderately quick read.
