Knowledge: Transformative production strategies

The cycle time measures the processing time of a production step and is crucial for process optimization. In addition, the differences to throughput time and cycle time as well as strategies for reduction.

Lead time describes the time span from the start of production to completion. Find out how it is calculated, what influencing factors there are and how companies can reduce lead time.

How time, cost and quality-related key figures in production reveal weak points and optimize processes - for greater efficiency.

Find out how to optimise production processes using lean methods, digital tools and the extended production triangle. Guide with expert knowledge.

By implementing lean methods as part of strategic lean management, GREIF-VELOX is realizing leaner battery production with the Velovac.

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) increases production output by maximizing plant availability. Find out how TPM optimizes production processes, reduces losses and makes maintenance measures more efficient.

How manufacturing companies use Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) to optimize their production performance. Use OEE to identify losses and improve processes.

The 5S method is a lean management approach to creating an organized, clean and standardized workplace. 5S increases efficiency, reduces waste and increases safety in production and the office.

How to reduce waste and increase efficiency in production plants using lean management principles and methods. Examples from production and assembly.
