Welcome to Part 7 of E2M‘s 8 part series about Lean. Today we’ll be wrapping up our Case Study: Cars & Liquids Don’t Mix. In Part 6, the “Lean experts” from Toyota gave the juice manufacturer this recommendation: Close-couple the machines and eliminate all conveyors except what was necessary to move the product from one machine [...]

Welcome to Part 6 of E2M‘s series about Lean. Today we’ll begin discussing our second Lean case study. Enjoy! Cars & Liquids Don’t Mix More important than an understanding of material variance is the application of product flow in a high-speed environment. It’s possible to create a high-speed line that is too lean. For low [...]
Welcome to Part 3 of E2M‘s Lean series. Today’s topic is Lean, Culture & the Engineer’s “Tools” Fixation. In Part 2, we concluded with the realization that the problem is most manufacturing professionals who are on the hunt for world-class results don’t achieve anything close to the results they wanted. A leading reason for the [...]

This week we’ll delve more into the theory behind our client’s cost savings. Sometimes a commonly used formula can make all the difference in the world when used at the right place and time. Combining this with a comprehensive analysis can yield impressive results — nearly 100% customer satisfaction at a much lower cost! Here’s [...]

Welcome to the Smart-Size it Series with E2M! Part 1 will set up the problem: How do you get your ASRS to be just the right size? This could mean enormous savings…or enormous costs depending on your degree of success. But don’t worry; we’ll show you how to zero in on the right results starting [...]

Every company has to manage capital costs, but it can be a very tricky business. You want your operations to run as smoothly as possible of course, but more precision and efficiency usually means higher costs. What can you do about these costs, then? Continue reading to find out! You can’t increase your production capacity until [...]

Welcome to E2M’s Unlock the Gridlock series! Bottlenecks are never fun, so wouldn’t it be great to head them off at the pass? You can start learning how to do just that below! Unlock the Gridlock Clearing bottlenecks at the end of the line. Traffic jams can happen too easily at the end of your [...]
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, [...]
