Set Up Reduction
Principles and Benefits of Set-Up Reduction

Understand the principals of “set up reduction techniques” and how it can improve business efficiency and profitability Understand why a machine, process or operation would be selected for the improvement activity and what range of improvements can be possible

Set Up Reduction

What is a set-up process?
“The time taken to change a machine from production of the last good part from the finished production run to the first good part of the next production run”

Typical set up process

Set Up Reduction
Why do we need to reduce the time taken to set-up a process ? Set-Up is a non value adding process which causes production output to be lost
SET-UP PROCESS

NON VALUE ADDED

=

LOST PRODUCTION OUTPUT

Set Up Reduction

The conventional way to limit the effects of setups is to minimise the number of set-ups required. i.e. Set-up avoidance. This assumes set-ups are a set time who’s impact can only be limited by reducing the number of times we do a set-up.

2/5/13

Set Up Reduction Set-up avoidance.

Long machine production runs. High levels of work in progress. High levels of finished parts stock. Poor delivery performance. Complex scheduling systems

Set Up Reduction
A better approach:- improve the setup
Minimise the time to perform a set-up. Eliminate wastes continually from the set-up process. Capture and standardise the best method sharing the skills required to set-up. 15 minutes 6.7 Enable set-ups to be performed as and when T …….. seconds..... required by customer driven demand. O ...

What do we gain? Flexibility Shorter set-up times More frequent set-ups Smaller batch sizes Shorter lead times Competitive advantage

How to perform a set-up reduction activity

2/5/13

Set Up Reduction Preparation for set-up reduction activity
For a reduction activity to be successful the following preparation will be required. ? Champion on board ? Mandate and objective set ? Time allocated ? Team defined ? Resources available 2/5/13 ? Skills in place

Set Up Reduction
A set-up reduction activity deploys the 4 steps within the following framework: ? Capture the set-up activity on video ? Analyse video into work elements ? Highlight elements as either internal & external ? Highlight all elements that include waste ? Re-organise internal & external processes ? Create improved process standard operations ? Proving trial of new process ? Identify and eliminate waste 2/5/13

? Capture
? The

the process – video

use of video can be an issue which should be discussed and agreement reached prior to any activity on the shopfloor. ? To get the best from video ensure the following:? Follow the operators and capture any automatic cycle times, more than one video maybe needed. ? Do not interrupt operator with questions during set-up process, include him in analysis team. ? Ask operator to perform as normally as possible, speeds, feeds, etc. ? Do not prepare anything especially in advance for the set-up, capture what usually happens

Set Up Reduction
From the detailed analysis the set–up can be reviewed by the overall categories of internal, external and potential waste.

When setting a target for the proving trial, the pure internal time is a useful start point. Any new method will have initial teething problems and the team may add some allowance for this.

Step two - identify internal and potential external operations Identify internal from potential external Operations Internal time is 194 seconds External time is2/5/13 87

Set Up Reduction
Step three - convert internal to external operations Convert internal to external operations Fuel filler cap = 16 seconds Internal time now 178 seconds External time now 103 seconds

Step four - eliminate waste

Eliminate waste from all operations. Priority internal Internal time now 29 secs External 2/5/13

Pit-stop - 91% improvement

Car stopped for only 29 seconds Races are now won and lost in the pit lane. After initial improvement start P-D-C-A cycle for Continual 2/5/13

Set Up Reduction
Set-up ongoing management Ensuring improvement is sustained requires attention to the following.
? Set-up

captured in standard operations. ? Performance measured and reviewed. ? Actions captured and actioned.

Set Up Reduction
Set-up & standard operations

Standard operations are the foundation stone of the set-up process and P-D-C-A improvement cycle. If standard operations are missing, every set-up will vary according to which operator performs it. Operator variations are caused through differences in training, knowledge, experiences and attitudes.
