With examples drawn from aerospace, electronics, household appliance, personal products, and automotive industries, Lean Assembly covers the engineering of assembly operations through: Characterizing the demand in terms of volume by product and product family, component consumption, seasonal variability and life cycle. Matching the physical structure of the shop floor to the demand with the goal of approaching takt-driven production as closely as possible. Working out the details of assembly tasks station by station, including station sizing, tooling, fixturing, operator instructions, part presentation, conveyance between stations, and the geometry of assembly lines as a whole. Incorporating mistake-proofing, successive inspection, and test operations for quality assurance. Lean Assembly differs from most other books on lean manufacturing in that it focuses on technical content as a driver for implementation methods. The emphasis is on exactly what should be done. This book should be the "dog-eared" and "penciled-in" resource on every assembly engineer's desk.

According to a report by the Institute of Medicine, up to 98,000 deaths per year occur in U.S. hospitals as a result of adverse events. In other words, errors in hospitals cause more annual deaths than car accidents, breast cancer, or AIDS. With the healthcare system in such critical condition, Lean is the best possible treatment.Winner of a 2013 S

A universal imperative of most manufacturing firms is to lower cost, increase production rate, and deliver exceptional quality for every product. The manufacturing firm that springs to mind as the standard bearer for all three is Toyota and the generalized lean manufacturing method known as the Toyota Production System. The literature on what lean manufacturing is and how to do it is vast. This thesis first contributes to that cache of lean literature an example of one aerospace company's interpretation of lean and how it is defined in assembly production design. In other words, this thesis tests the claim that lean principles can be incorporated in the design of an aircraft assembly process to achieve the lean goals of producing a perfect product with zero waste at the rate at which a customer demands it. The thesis covers a seven-month research period at an aircraft assembly factory and is broken into three phases. The first phase presents research on an existing lean transformation initiative in the factory and measures its success at achieving lean goals. This evaluation determines that the as-designed system does meet the goals of lean to continuously improve and eliminate waste but also exposes problems to other sub-systems in the factory. Phase I identified several improvement candidates for deeper study, and the rest of the thesis considers one of these opportunities, specifically on the material delivery system. The second part of the thesis focuses on a root cause analysis of the problems associated with the material delivery system at meeting lean goals. The resulting question is what changes to the material delivery system are required to further these goals. The company was already considering several solutions to answer this question; however, the proposed solutions would violate the original design requirements for the system. This hindered the ability to make improvements. The third part of this thesis examines the redefinition of the design requirements that embody lean principles as well as other requirements imposed on the system. This allows for new solutions to be evaluated against the design requirements and a final recommendation is proposed.

Fear of change—we all experience it. Some accept change immediately, some gradually adapt, while others may never get there. Whether it’s poor leadership, the inability to change, or pure ego, this Shingo Prize-winning book explores this perplexing commitment to inefficiency. Winner of a 2013 Shingo Prize!/strong The Psychology of Lean Improvements: Why Organizations Must Overcome Resistance and Change the Culture examines the psychology behind why businesses avoid Lean transformations. It investigates why businesses cling to the eight deadly wastes and why they still find ways to place continuous improvement on the back burner. Frequently sought out for his expertise in Lean manufacturing, Chris Ortiz has been featured in a number of trade publications and on the television show Inside Business with Fred Thompson. In this book, Mr. Ortiz breaks down the fear of change within executives and organizational leaders. He examines the psychology of dysfunction, provides insight into why so many businesses fall short in creating visions for growth and prosperity, and identifies tools that can help you address resistance to change. Detailing implementation techniques with a proven track record for success, the book considers specific strategies that can be helpful towards improving your company and changing its culture—including cellular manufacturing, total productive maintenance, setup reduction, Kanban, visual communication, and in-line production. It explains how to get started on your Lean transformation, describes why an economic downturn might be a good time to embrace Lean, and warns of the dangers behind failing to do so. STRONGChris A. Ortiz is the founder and president of Kaizen Assembly, a Lean manufacturing training and implementation firm in Bellingham, Washington.

Modern Manufacturing Methodologies have undergone three different evolutionary stages over the past 200 years. Before there were modern manufacturing plants, the world only knew skilled craftsmen who labored as individuals in very small groups to produce goods and services. The first factory evolution came about when James Watt invented the steam engine. Metal cutting, forming and assembly machines were co-located near streams or rivers forming what we now call the Job Shop or the American Armory System. The second factory evolution began when Henry Ford introduced the first modern assembly line using interchangeable parts and standardized manufacturing procedures. This gave rise to the modern flow shop, which reached its zenith during WWII. In the late 1970s, the third industrial evolution began when Taiichi Ohno and the Toyota Motor Company introduced what we now call Lean Manufacturing...and the world came. Over the last 40 years, all forms of manufacturing and service systems have embraced the concepts of Lean Thinking and proved its superiority to traditional manufacturing and service systems design. This book defines and characterizes a new breed of Manufacturing Engineer which we call the Lean Engineer. The Lean Engineer has roots in traditional Industrial engineering, but is also well trained in six-sigma methodologies and understands lean to green factory design principles. However, Lean Engineering transcends and redefines the classic Industrial engineer. Principles of Lean systems design, U-shaped Lean manufacturing cells, Linked Cell Manufacturing System design and Mixed Model final assembly lines are unique Lean Engineering strategies. This book attempts to define for the first time a new manufacturing engineering discipline called the Lean Engineer. This book: Introduces Lean System Design principles Demonstrates the conversion of traditional manufacturing lines into U-shaped Lean Cells Contrasts push versus pull manufacturing strategies Covers Balancing, Leveling and System synchronization Demonstrates Value Stream Mapping and the 7-Lean analysis tools Provides an introduction to Queuing Network Analysis for single and multiple product flows ....and many more Principles which define the Lean Engineer
