Review

A goldmine of great ideas for improving changeovers. The authors explain the ideas they have helped improvement teams implement at a variety of factories. Their ideas are generously displayed with more than 200 figures, photos, and tables.

Close to the ground, real-life examples of continuous improvement techniques that relate to virtually any type of production environment.

Product Description

Especially useful for manufacturing managers and engineers, this book describes exactly how to achieve faster changeover. Picking up where Shingo's SMED book left off, you'll learn how to streamline the process even further to reduce changeover time and optimize staffing at the same time.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunately this is not a very helpful book, October 11, 2003

By	Michael J Leahy "michael_leahy" (Santa Rosa, CA United States) - See all my reviews

I had hoped that this would be an extension of Shigeo Shingo's "A Revolution in Manufacturing: The SMED System," but unfortunately it is not really helpful. The writing is convoluted. The translation could be better. I didn't find anything in this book that wasn't explained much more clearly in Shingo's book.
