This is an interesting article about achieving zero defects in manufacturing...and one way of doing so is through improved training for associates. Have you considered utilizing video in your training? Videos ensure consistent and accurate training for every associate, every time. Plus, they are a great way of capturing the institutional knowledge being lost as longtime associates retire. #sharingstories #associatetraining #trainingvideos #manufacturing #zerodefects

📚 Applying Toyota Motor Europe’s Lean Method to Studying 🚀 Here’s how you can streamline your study sessions using lean methodology: 🔍 Review & Adjust – After each session, reflect on what worked and what didn’t. Make small tweaks! ⏰ Experiment – Try flexible study times or new locations. Switch it up to boost focus. 📈 PDSA Cycle – Plan your goals, Do the work, Study your progress, Act on improvements. These small, consistent changes add up. What adjustments will you make? 🔄💡 #StudySmart #LeanLearning #MedSchoolHacks #ContinuousImprovement #StayEfficient #LeanMethodology #Toyota

Watch the replay of this webinar by Reynald Debaut-Henocque, ex VP Production at Toyota Motor Manufacturing France, and learn how they manage their maintenance to support their goal to 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐬. In this webinar, he explains the challenges they faced not to compromise maintenance while working 3 shifts, the organization they have implemented and how they manage the maintenance members. Often overlooked or outsourced, Toyota has understood that a key to success is to have a reliable manufacturing tool.

Our lean conversion programme is designed to simplify operations for everyone at McBride. Partnering with the Kaizen Institute, the team at McBride Middleton has a very clear vision and reasons for introducing the programme: ⭐️ Moving from reactive to proactive and eventually predictive manufacturing with the help of our daily performance metrics ⭐️ Creating a 'bottom-up' approach using learnings and real-time data from those running the lines ⭐️ A renewed focus on inputs as much as outputs ⭐️ Providing more autonomy to our teams We have identified future key projects that will help us achieve our lean programme objectives, including autonomous maintenance and a targeted waste stream 'Kobetsu' improvement plan. #LeanConversion #KaizenInsititute #Kobetsu

Lean thinking in Manufacturing aims to reduce waste as much as possible from work processes. The basic meaning of waste in lean thinking is any action or step in a process that does not add value to the customer or does not want to pay for it. The original seven wastes (Muda) were developed by Taiichi Ohno, the Chief Engineer at Toyota, as part of the Toyota Production System (TPS). The seven wastes are Transportation, Inventory, Motion, Waiting, Overproduction, Overprocessing, and Defects. They are often referred to by the acronym ‘TIMWOOD’. The 8th waste of non-utilized talent or ‘Skills’ of workers was later introduced in the 1990s when the Toyota Production System was adopted in the Western world. As a result, the 8 wastes are commonly referred to as ‘TIMWOODS’. #leanmanufacturing #7waste

Batch Production vs. Continuous Flow... To Cross a River What is the fastest way to get the most cars to the other side of the river? Ferry? With this option, cars must line up and wait to be loaded onto the ferry. Once the ferry reaches its maximum capacity, they have to wait for it to make the round trip. Bridge? With this option, cars do not wait or line up; they simply cross the river as they arrive, achieving an uninterrupted flow of vehicles. #continuousflow #batchproduction #onepieceflow #singlepieceflow #leanmanufacturing #leanthinking #blackbelt #industrialengineering

The Toyota Production System (TPS) is highly regarded as one of the most efficient and effective manufacturing methodologies, especially in the automotive industry. Developed by Toyota, it emphasizes continuous improvement, respect for people, and the elimination of waste, aiming to enhance efficiency and product quality. The system's focus on lean manufacturing principles, elimination of the 7 wastes (overproduction, waiting, transport, extra processing, inventory, motion, and defects), and empowering workers to identify and solve problems makes it highly adaptable and valuable, particularly in large-scale automotive assembly operations. TPS has been a benchmark for industries worldwide and has influenced the development of Lean Manufacturing principles across various sectors beyond just automotive. #engineerkhurram #manufacturing #toyotaproduction #lean
