Abstract: Preparing
machines for production and set them up in the manufacturing
industry is one of the most important steps that organization
always trying to minimize its time. This paper document the
implementation of lean manufacturing tool project in a
manufacturing industry to reduce the time-wasting step and
improving its productivity with the focus on the setup process.
In this project, Applying lean manufacturing tools helps to
determine which type of machine has the highest setup time.
Machines type1 has the highest setup
time with an average of 1.27 hour per setup with 24% of that
time consumed only by the first three steps of the setup
process. As result of applying lean manufacturing tools a
reduction of 8% of the setup time were achieved.
