Intro to Lean Manufacturing Series - 3DVD's #16583

This package consists of the following DVDs: Introduction to Lean Manufacturing: You can use this program to introduce the concept of lean manufacturing to everyone in your organization so they can become more involved in the transition from mass production to lean production. This program explains the core philosophy behind lean manufacturing, and gives insight into why so many companies are adopting the lean principles. This program identifies many value-added and non-value added activities and explains why total system efficiency is a more appropriate goal than individual efficiencies. You will see how streamlined production flow and pull production controls can reduce your inventories to improve profits. Examples of visual management, standardized work and flexible workplaces show how companies are improving as they make the many changes needed to become a lean manufacturing organization. Lean Manufacturing at Miller SQA: This program examines the lean manufacturing principles at an office furniture company called Miller SQA. Miller SQA has applied lean principles in a mass customization market to give their customers exactly the furniture they need when they need it. Continuous improvement is encouraged by presenting the benefits to all employees through "lean events" that allow different people from all parts of the company to examine the work area and make suggestions. In addition, a pull production control system maintains inventory levels at the assembly area so no more than 2 hours worth of parts are ever in the work cell ready to be assembled. One-piece-flow, cellular manufacturing, and strong visual controls are integrated into a sophisticated information technology system to help reach the company goal of 100% on time shipment of customer orders. Lean Manufacturing at TAC Manufacturing: This program examines the successful lean manufacturing practices at an automotive supplier, TAC Manufacturing. TAC Manufacturing is a subsidiary of Tokai Rica, and their production philosophy is based on the Toyota Production System. Many lean principles are followed such as just-in-time parts delivery, pull production control, and visual controls. The team-based workplace culture creates highly motivated workers capable of meeting all customer demands. Supplier confidence is maintained by careful selection and frequent communications to keep inventories of all materials ready for processing when needed.
