Set Up Improvement
Set-up Improvement
A structured method to develop a stable, consistent set-up procedure. This is the amount of time taken to change a process over from the last part of a production run, to the first good repeatable part of the next run.
Using a ‘hands on’ approach, we can help you to dramatically reduce your set up and change over times, resulting in cost and time savings. By making simple changes you can expect to see a number of benefits including shorter lead times, material waste reduction, higher productivity rates and an overall improvement in efficiency throughout the entire process.
