CHANGEOVER DEFINITION • Changeover should be defined as … • “The activities necessary to ensure manufacture of a new product at a predetermined production rate and at a predetermined product quality rate.” • and/or • “The elapsed time between manufacture of an existing product and manufacture of a new product at a predetermined production rate and a predetermined product quality rate.” ITBA - July 2007

REVIEWING IMPROVEMENT PRACTICE Dominant ‘SMED’ methodology Conceptual Stages ‘SMED’ • Stage 0 - Internal and External not distinguished • Stage 1 - Separate Internal and External • Stage 2 - Convert Internal to External • Stage 3 - Streamline ITBA - July 2007
SMED concept or stage Assigned technique Stage 1: Separate internal and external setup Using a checklist Performing function checks Improving die transportation Stage 2: Convert internal to external set-up Preparing operating conditions in advance Function standardisation Using intermediary jigs Stage 3: Streamline all aspects of the set-up operation Improving storage and transportation of dies, etc. Implementing parallel operations Using functional clamps Eliminating adjustments Least common multiple system Mechanisation REVIEWING IMPROVEMENT PRACTICE Dominant ‘SMED’ methodology ITBA - July 2007
CHANGEOVER IMPROVEMENT PRACTICE The need to measure performance and isolate individual tasks A brief thought … The use of the SMED methodology to address run-up losses ? Total elapsed changeover time ITBA - July 2007
CHANGEOVER IMPROVEMENT PRACTICE The ‘post-it note’ method ITBA - July 2007
CHANGEOVER IMPROVEMENT PRACTICE Seeking retrospective improvement: Preconceptions ? Objective: Faster Changeovers (Set-Up Reduction) Objective 2: Higher Quality Changeovers ITBA - July 2007
CURRENT CHANGEOVER PRACTICE Seeking retrospective improvement: Preconceptions ? Kaizen ‘SMED’ Objective: Faster Changeovers (Set-Up Reduction) >50% Improvement Low cost ITBA - July 2007

SOME DESIGN RULES Retrospective improvement: “doing better things” (design-biased technique guidance) • Quick release fasteners • No tools • Foolproof (no skill) • Part count reduction • Better access • Modularisation • Reduction in variety (variability) • Reduction in effort • Precision fixed locations • Pre-setting devices • Clamping/securing devices • Standardisation • Adjustment scales + minimise adjustment • Lightweight • Movement/handling aids • Universality ITBA - July 2007
