• Productivity Press

The powerful knowledge contained in this book can make your workplace more productive, your job simpler, and everything more satisfying. It’s about how to do equipment or product changeovers in record time–often in less than 10 minutes. The method you’ll learn here is called SMED, short for “Single-Minute Exchange of Die” (the “single” here means a single-digit number of minutes). Developed from a longer book, A Revolution in Manufacturing: The SMED System (cat no. PP9903), written for managers, this book is written for frontline production and assembly associates. It presents an overview of the reasons why SMED is important for companies and employees, sets out the three basic stages of SMED, and then devotes a separate chapter to each of these stages.
