Thesis (S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 1999.
Setup time reduction is one of the principle forces enabling lean manufacturing. This thesis documents the formulation and reduction to practice of two stages of a setup time reduction strategy for a 700-ton Danley progressive die press. Common methodologies of setup time reduction were presented and discussed, with the purpose of developing a general algebra for setup reduction. The algebra was applied to develop a specific strategy for setup time reduction of a 700-ton Danley progressive die press. Attempts were then made to reduce the strategy to practice.
