High-Density Storage Systems and Their Integration Into Manufacturing

Holemaking

This Hydroforming program examines the basic materials, tools, and techniques of tubular hydroforming and sheet metal hydroforming.

Improving Cold Forming Output

While lean is a popular term on the shop floor, this program will show you a company that didn't stop there. A global leader in particle separation equipment, SWECO applied lean from the office to the loading dock. Part of the award-winning Manufacturing Insights Video Series, this program shows how applying lean techniques, such as kanban, visual boards, 5S, and pre-staged kits helped SWECO increase profits. At the same time, the company improved quality, reduced costs and better served its customers.

Induction Heating for Brazing, Soldering and Joining

This Introduction to Lean Tooling program examines how manufacturing companies are using lean tooling as an integral part of lean manufacturing to immediately cut costs, drastically reduce production lead time, and ensure quality. It will help you organize your tooling so you can find every tool you need in less than 30 seconds and it will help you get tooling ready faster so that setup time is minimized.

Kaizen event effectiveness is a prerequisite for lean transformation success. It provides the necessary transformational jump-start, momentum, organizational learning and engagement, and sustainable, step-function improvements. The systemic use of kaizen events establishes the technical and cultural foundation for principle-driven kaizen — the powerful combination of kaizen events and daily kaizen activities. The Shingo Prize award-winning book brings this all together as an indispensable reference for lean leaders and implementers within any industry and for use at any stage within the lean implementation journey.
