Lean manufacturing seminars are being held during October in Treforest, Bradford and Leicester.
Lean manufacturing seminars organised by Bosch Rexroth in conjunction with The Lean Factory group provide advice, practical demonstrations and opportunities for one-to-one discussions The seminars, each of which lasts for around four hours, are being held during October in Treforest, Bradford and Leicester.
No charge is made for attending, but advance booking is essential as space is strictly limited.
Set up with the intention of spreading the benefits of lean manufacturing, The Lean Factory group has four members: Bosch Rexroth, Leonardo group, Orgatex and Wuerth.
During the seminars, experts from the member companies of The Lean Factory group will demonstrate how to build an assembly line using the lean concept.
The topics they will cover include value stream mapping, work content and workplace design in terms of one-piece flow, dimensioning of the Kanban control loop, design of Kanban boards, the customer order in the ERP system, levelling and the design of Heijunka boards.
All of the presentations are based on a practical assembly line and will provide guidance not only on the preparation of the line, but also simulation of a number of typical real-life scenarios.
Those attending the seminars will also have ample opportunity for personal consultations with the expert presenters, as well as to compare experiences with other attendees, to network and to discuss current trends.
