Single Minute Exchange of Die (SMED) stands for setup in the single-digit minute range. This lean methodology for reducing setup and changeover times originated in Japanese production technology. The ability to reduce changeover times has a direct impact on lead times and thus on the responsiveness and flexibility of organizations. In production and service environments with high variety, quick changeover is increasingly becoming a competitive factor. This webinar brings the underlying logic of SMED back into focus and highlights its contribution to achieving operational goals.
