How to
design a basic workcell.
-
Why
One-Piece Flow is advantageous.
-
SMED and how
to setup fast and consistently.
-
Why fast,
predictable setups smooth production and reduce inventory.
-
Why work
teams and workcells reinforce one another.
-
What teams
need for success.
-
How to use
Kanban.
-
Why simple,
visual kanban often outperforms a computer.
