Standard Work & Setup Reduction

Visual tools are employed within Standard Work practices to ensure that critical operating, inspection and maintenance information is readily accessible to those doing the work. 

Likewise, when employing quick changeover techniques to reduce setup times, it is critical that the jigs, dies and other tools are easily located and clearly labeled. 

Extracting such information from the confines of binders and computer drives and instead posting it right at the point of use serves to simplify training, prevent mistakes, reduce cycle times and enhance safety.
