Love the improvements. Loved being a part of the original! One idea for continuous improvement: when you only have one operator working at the station, have them work on the right side so they are closer to the Activator cases for reduced motion during replenishment. I bet you drop 10-15 seconds per case of 30!

Three things about this video amaze me. 1. Paul is present. Getting managerial buy-in is critical and in my experience the hardest barrier to scale. 2. Employees are celebrating and not fighting change. 3. 12 years on its still relevant and better than ever. Masterpiece!

From the view of 99%, they just won’t understand this. From our small community, this brings tears to our eyes. Everything was thought of at the highest level. I mean folding the box flaps to storing the waste boxes. And it’s all simple, nothing complex or fancy. This is one of the best examples of TPS I have ever seen. Wow!!

This video is amaizing. I remember watching original video and was inspired to persue lean journey. To see the proof that after so many years someone is improving speed even further. It looks like magician doing tricks. It would be amaizing to see more longer format videos for other products as well where you go thru trial and error sessions from start to finish.

2 months of training. I suggest put a training series of printed arrows (with numbers 1, 2, 3, 4) so that a person will follow their hands in the numbered sequence. You can use two colours like in a hospital, one for right hand, the other for left hand. You can have these on a training board, that can be put one the table for training, then removed for normal workers.

AHH... the video that started it all for me WAY back when. So... whatever happened to Megan?

at 1:48 the yellow cone was placed on top of the cylinder. Then the worker lowers the plastic sleeve BUT it gets caught due to the 4 inch gap between the printed insert and the bottom of the cone.

Hi Paul, I'm struggling to understand the anomaly card. How is it used when a product has multiple nested steps/subassemblies? Does one anomaly card trigger more anomaly cards? For example, if the usual amount to produce is 30 but we need 100pcs, how does that propagate upstream?
@paul-akersАй бұрын
@@marios2liquid it’s simple let’s say Amazon orders 1000 of something and we normally only make 100 a day so we start making the thousand we call something called Buss which means we bring people from other departments to help out the production we start making the thousand and we hit additional con on other components those condoms are immediately delivered to other production areas and they start making those components. They are not additional anomaly cart. They’re just standard con. Our system is set up so that upstream the “” anomalies are manageable. It’s just at the production level i.e. assembly that we need the additional help in order to meet our goal of two hours fax to truck.

@@paul-akers ok so in that case you stick a note on the kanban injection molding card (which normally says make 100pcs) and you push it to that department, like hey, dont inject 100, inject 1000. once the injection molding guys make the parts, you trigger the "Buss" so multiple people can help with screwing and packaging? I spent many years working in factories in China and I always heard the 5S, 7S terms getting thrown around, now that I opened a small factory I realized how much work is involved to achieve continuous flow and be organized (stop looking for that screwdriver for 30minutes,or muda, muda everywhereeee). It seems that in China most small medium contract factories have a giant assembly table where they setup the line for customer A, make a few thousands of a product and then they ship. Next day that table is re-setup and used for customer B. This was very annoying, I remember, since there was no opportunity for iteration. The table was always cleaned up for the next customer. Compare this with what you show with your solo kit, all the iterations remain IN the cell. I am in the process of moving from one generic table to dedicated cells instead, lets see how it goes!!

@@Infobite-es3sh evaluate your study process. Ask yourself where is the value and non-value added activity? Run experiments and test what happens and then then readjust until you get the optimum situation.
