Shingo, whose work at Toyota led to Just in Time Manufacturing, teaches how to implement non-stock production in JIT operations. The culmination of his extensive writings on production and improvement, this book provides a companion to his other landmark books on key elements of JIT, including SMED and poka-yoke. He covers basic concepts for improving production, and in examining various production systems, exposes fundamental flaws in European and American production philosophies. He also delves into the scientific thinking mechanism -- a new approach to improvement, and discusses production functions in both authorized stock production and non-stock production environments.

Describes the author's approach to manufacturing improvements which he called it the Scientific Thinking Mechanism (STM). This book leads you through the five stages of STM.

This book, based on Shingo's SMED System, helps you begin the education process that will support training on quick changeover. The learning format in the Shopfloor Series begins to make this technique accessible to your entire workforce.

Presents an industrial engineering rationale for the priority of process-based over operational improvements in manufacturing. This book explains the basic mechanisms of the Toyota production system, examines production as a functional network of processes and operations, and discusses the mechanism to make JIT possible in manufacturing plants.

Written by the industrial engineer who developed SMED (single-minute exchange of die) for Toyota, this title presents an overview of this powerful just in time production tool. It offers the instructions available anywhere for transforming a manufacturing environment in ways that can speed up production and make small lot inventories feasible.
