SMED is Continuous Improvement
It is a customer driven requirement. Customers are

demanding:
Product and service diversity
Lower costs
Higher reliability and quality.
In essence organizations need to become leaner !
So organizations must:
Produce smaller lots, more frequently.
Expand the scope and diversity of products and
services.
Reduce quality defects.
3
Ultimately, SMED focuses on reducing changeover and set-up
times, thus enabling organizations to:
Produce smaller lots of products and services more

frequently !
Develop a broader scope of products and services !
Reduce quality defects towards zero !
Meet Customer’s Expectations !

4
What Does Set-up/changeover
reduction mean for my business?
Increased customer service levels and
profits !
Via Waste Elimination resulting in:
Reduced Lead Times-Faster Delivery
Zero Inventories-Reduced Working Capital
Improved Quality
Improved Safety
Smaller lots of products-flexibility
Diversified Product & Service Options 5
Why SMED ?
Look Familiar ?
•To eliminate the wastes that result from

“uncontrolled” processes increasing inventories and
lead times..
• To gain control on equipment, material &
inventory.
• Apply Control Techniques to Eliminate Erosion of
Improvements.
• Standardize Improvements for Maintenance of
Critical Set-up Parameters. 6

Traditional Setup Practices
Material movement occurs

•Completed products are transferred to
turned off. next operation.
•Raw material is moved after the
machine is stopped.
Detection of defects or
missing equipment is noticed •Setup tooling delivered after the
which the machine is running. changeover has begun.
•Defective product identified after
internal setup has begun.
Defective tooling,fixtures,
setup instruments are

turned on.

5 “Traditional”Setup Steps Defined
 Preparation - Ensures that all the tools are working
properly and are in the right location.
 Mounting & Extraction - Involves the removal of the
tooling after the production lot is completed and the
placement of the new tooling before the next
production lot.
 Establishing Control Settings - Setting all the process
control settings prior to the production run. Inclusive of
calibrations and measurements needed to make the
machine, tooling operate effectively.
 First Run Capability - This includes the necessary
adjustments( re-calibrations, additional measurements)
required after the first trial pieces are produced.
 Setup Improvement- The time after processing during
which the tooling, machinery is cleaned, identified, and
tested for functionality prior to storage.

Phase 2 Combining equipment functionality
Involves standardizing the equipment ( parts, tooling, processes) based on

commonality between setups to reduce the number of setup steps and cycle
times. The common setup parts were identified and
