Lean Quick Changeover SMED (PowerPoint PPTX)

SMED (Single-Minute Exchange of Dies) is a system for dramatically reducing the time it takes to complete equipment changeovers.

The name SMED comes from the goal of reducing changeover times to the "single" digits (i.e. less than 10 minutes).

This documents contain step by step implementation of SMED process.

The Lean Quick Changeover SMED PPT offers a comprehensive guide to optimizing your manufacturing processes by reducing equipment changeover times. It delves into the core principles of SMED, emphasizing the importance of flexibility, quicker delivery, better quality, and higher productivity. The document provides a detailed breakdown of the manufacturing process, highlighting the four basic phases: transport, processing, storage, and setup operations. It distinguishes between internal and external setups, offering practical techniques for converting internal setup tasks to external ones.

The document also includes a section on using videotape to conduct a setup analysis, showcasing before and after scenarios to illustrate the effectiveness of SMED. It outlines the three stages of SMED implementation: separating internal and external setup, converting internal setup to external setup, and streamlining all aspects of setup. Each stage is accompanied by practical examples and techniques that can be applied in real-world scenarios, making it a valuable resource for any organization looking to improve its setup operations.

In addition, the document covers the benefits of SMED for companies, such as improved machine work rates, reduced setup errors, enhanced product quality, and safer operations. It also addresses the effects of SMED application, including total management improvement, reduced total setup time, and the elimination of the need for special skills. The document concludes with a discussion on eliminating adjustments and trial runs, emphasizing the importance of accurate centering, dimensioning, and condition setting during previous setup steps to save machine downtime.
