In the past decade, Lean or Agile Manufacturing approaches have begun to get a lot of favorable attention.  While there are differences in between the two approaches, Lean and Agile manufacturing approaches both advocate simplification of the production process.  

Even if you haven't heard of the approaches, chances are you have heard of some of the techniques for implementation:

  • Work cells
  • Kanban
  • SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Dies)
  • Design for Manufacture

Below are some Lean Manufacturing resources that might be of interest.

MAMTC -- This is the lean manufacturing pages of Missouri's NIST Center.  Some good resources on these pages.

Lean Enterprise Institute -- The Lean Enterprise Institute is a non-profit organization that supplies education materials on Lean Manufacturing ideas and techniques.

Successful Lean Manufacturing -- This site by the Michigan Manufacturing Technology Center provides some additional useful lean manufacturing resources.
