Welcome back for Part 2 of E2M‘s Lean for High-Speed Manufacturing series. Today we will be discussing successful Lean production system using Toyota’s example. The leaders of Toyota understood getting better is more difficult than coordinating labor, raw materials, machines, production schedules, automation and material flow into a fluid system. With this understanding, Toyota began [...]

Welcome to the third and final part of the (Recon)figure series! It’s time to wrap things up! Conclusion The application of the simulation and systems analytics tools allowed E2M to have the line up and running by the deadline. In addition, the client outran their startup curve. This was made possible only because the team [...]

TRANSCRIPT: This E2M case study comes from one of the best known consumer packaged goods companies in the world. The company’s food has been on millions of American kitchen tables for decades. The plant’s old lines, however, need to be taken out and new equipment installed with only a 2-weeks to do it. The project [...]
It’s time to wrap up the Winning the Startup Game series! Today you’ll learn the two final pieces of the process. Here we go! 4. EXECUTE THE PLAYS WHILE KEEPING EVERYONE TALKING Constant communication is the key to execution. It’s how you build trust and develop a nimble, responsive team that can quickly adapt to [...]

Welcome to Winning the Startup Game, Part 1! A flat start-up curve can really ruin your game. Demand goes unmet. Startup costs rise. And despite your best efforts to reach capacity, your startup period just grows longer by the day. Everyone’s been there, but it doesn’t have to be that way. At E2M/Polytron, we’ve developed a [...]

Being certain about your data quality is always important; an entire line can go down if you’re just a few numbers off. That’s why E2m determines the Overall Equipment Effectiveness of your lines and identifies bottlenecks with precision. You won’t find our proprietary analysis tools anywhere else, so read on to learn more. Get assurance about the [...]

Manufacturing can be a tricky business. All of the machinery has to run in near-perfect harmony and precision, and most everything happens very quickly. Buffering can potentially smooth out your line’s operation, but even this can require much thought and understanding to get right. Fortunately, E2M understands buffering very well. Here’s Part 1 of a [...]

Here’s an update from the first annual Demo3D User Group Meeting, courtesy of our very own Mati Chessin! Christy and I had a blast at the first (and hopefully annual) Demo3D User Group Meeting in Salt Lake City last month. We were there as presenters giving a talk on our standard approach to emulation projects, [...]
