Introduction to Lean Manufacturing (DVD)

You can use this tape 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 tape explains the core philosophy behind lean manufacturing, and gives insight into why so many companies are adopting the lean principles. This tape identifies many value-added and non-value added activities. This tape 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.

Kanban System (DVD)

Kanban is a Japanese term for a visual system which is used to trigger activity upstream in a given process. The most important point to remember about a Kanban system, is that the best Kanban system is no Kanban system and that it is only a substitute for not being able to implement single piece flow in your process. Examples of Kanban Systems are shown from Carver Pump Company, Muscatine, IA, who uses Kanban cards, bins, and visual replenishment to deliver a wide variety of military and commercial pumps. A second example of Kanban is at Ariens Company, Brillion, WI, who has converted from a computer based inventory control system to using Kanban to trigger each step in the process of building snow blowers and lawn mowers. In the summary, six simple rules are presented that must be followed to make your Kanban System successful.
