Industrial Painting and Powdercoating: Principles and Practice

This program covers the array of robot configurations and features segments on robot anatomy and types, robotic programming, and sensors.

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.

Use this Introduction to Lean Manufacturing program to familiarize the concept of lean manufacturing to everyone in your organization so they can become more involved in the transition from mass production to lean production. This program explains the core philosophy behind lean manufacturing, and gives insight into why so many companies are adopting the lean principles. This program identifies many value-added and non-value added activities. Learn why total system efficiency is a more appropriate goal than individual efficiencies.

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.

Inspection and Measurement in Manufacturing

Ideal as an introduction to the basic concepts of kanban. See what kanban systems are available, how they work, and where they'll be successful. Discussion centers on how this lean tool supports inventory control to better respond to customer demands, promote visual control, and reduce costs.

The main goal of kaizen is the elimination of non-value-added activities (waste) through the implementation of one-piece flow, working to takt time, and instituting a pull system. The mantra is to manufacture only what is needed by the customer, when it is needed, and in the quantities ordered. Kaizen has been shown to collapse lead times, dramatically reduce work in process, and reduce scrap and defects while minimizing the need for capital expenditures. Its successful results across industry are real, proven, documented, and confirmed!

This book presents practical information and troubleshooting on laser cutting and laser cutting design tools from a quality manufacturing perspective. Equally applicable to small shops as it is to large fabricator companies, Laser Cutting Guide for Manufacturing is a roadmap for developing, implementing, operating, and maintaining a laser-cutting manufacturing enterprise.
