CUSTOMIZED ON-SITE TRAINING PROGRAMS
MAMTC recognizes
your need for lean training when and where you need it. The full inventory
of MAMTC lean-related seminars is available for in-house delivery,
customized to fit your schedule, your needs, and your business. Customized,
in-house programs focusing on the major tenets of Lean Manufacturing
include:
Principles of Lean Manufacturing with Live Simulation
This seminar provides a concise introduction to the principles of Lean Manufacturing and includes thought-provoking class discussion and hands-on simulations. You´ll learn about the fundamental of Lean Manufacturing visual controls, set-up reduction, batch size reduction and others that will facilitate your successful move from traditional mass production to Lean Manufacturing. The highlight of this seminar is a comprehensive, interactive simulation designed to show first-hand the effects of Lean related principles in comparison to traditional manufacturing processes.
How to Perform Value Stream Mapping to Identify and Eliminate Waste
When you remove wasted time and effort in your production flow, your performance improvement skyrockets, now learn how to apply a practical tool to zero in on your unique productivity killers. In this seminar youšll learn how to create a map of your entire production process to make waste visible, develop an action plan to successfully remove obstacles to flow, and more.
Visual Workplace (5S)
5S is a method used by all workers...front-line to management...to improve workplace safety, reduce waste, simplify work processes, improve equipment maintenance and trouble shooting, and ensure product quality. This seminar will address how to understand the purpose, benefits, and process of 5S implementation, linking 5S to company strategies, forming 5S teams, and performing target area scans to assess current conditions and problems.
Quick Changeover/Set-Up Reduction
Relentless pressures on the shop floor to eliminate waste and increase production flexibility make quick changeover and reduction in setup times necessities. This seminar delivers a step-by-step approach to accomplishing this goal and, in many cases, reducing setup time by 80% or more.
How to Design and Implement Cellular and Flow Manufacturing
Lean manufacturers moving to a cell environment face many challenging decisions. Which products can be converted? What are the best timing techniques? Is it wise to test cell design with simulations? This seminar will answer these and many other questions as you walk through the design and implementation of a work cell.
Pull/Kanban
To achieve a truly lean enterprise, your work flow must be level so
each process produces only the exact quantity needed and no more.
In this seminar you´ll learn how to quickly implement a pull/Kanban
system to change how production flows through your plant and reap
the rewards of reduced inventory, shorter lead times, and improved
response time.
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)
A productivity maintenance improvement methodology designed to maximize
equipment efficiency, TPM involves everyone from shop floor to top
executives. Support team based activities are aimed at plant wide
goals of zero losses and improved efficiencies. In this seminar attendees
will learn the principles of TPM and how to implement this proactive
and systematic approach to making repairs and checks. Topics include
the critical role your people play, the development of your TPM game
plan, implementation how-to´s, and much more.
