Currently, many food factories are facing a situation where their profits are being pressured because they cannot sufficiently pass on the rising costs of raw materials, labor, energy, and logistics to product prices. Moreover, the current situation is that many factories have reached their limits, as they are unable to gather personnel even when employees leave, despite various measures being taken, and they have not been able to find fundamental solutions. In this seminar, we will discuss ways to overcome the recent significant rise in costs, incorporating actual case studies of successful cost reduction efforts in many food factories, and explain new strategies that directly lead to results, which go beyond traditional on-site improvements. ◆ Recommended for workplaces like this! ◆ - Want to develop leaders and management personnel - Want to reduce material costs but only hear about price increases - Want to increase production but cannot gather the necessary personnel - Unable to pass on the rising costs to selling prices - Directly impacted by the surge in raw material costs and wages

Free membership registrationThe shipbuilding industry is composed of shipowners, shipbuilders, and ship parts manufacturers, but it is not acceptable for parts manufacturers to delay construction plans due to their own circumstances. Parts manufacturers need to respond flexibly to delays in specifications and urgent requests, but in reality, it is often the mental strength of the workers on-site that keeps things going, which ultimately leads to a significant decrease in productivity. It is extremely important to stabilize the production system and build a structure that increases resilience to fluctuations, rather than just thinking, "It's fine as long as we managed to meet the deadline by brute force." This seminar will clearly introduce realistic solutions based on the actual situation of ship parts manufacturers. ◆ Recommended for workplaces like this! ◆ - There are many young workers on-site, and skills are not being passed down. - There are many unfinished tasks, causing storage issues. - There are frequent urgent requests from customers. - A production scheduler has been implemented but is not being used effectively. - There are many changes to the production plan, and adjustments are being made on-site.

Free membership registrationReducing lead time is often approached as a means to reduce inventory, but have you ever experienced stabilization of production planning and cost reduction as a result? In fact, improvements centered on reducing lead time can achieve significant enhancements that cannot be obtained through bottom-up improvements at the site alone. This is because the essence of lead time reduction initiatives lies in transforming the very mechanisms of manufacturing. In this video, we will focus on how to flow and control materials, explaining how to promote lead time reduction starting from production management. <The first 3 minutes are available for viewing> https://vimeo.com/1029920185 【Date and Time】 On-demand distribution!

Free membership registrationThe production management system is the core system that supports various business operations, and failing to implement it can have far-reaching consequences. Common examples of failure include the following: 1. Inability to optimize operations, resulting in half-hearted effects. 2. Realizing after implementation that it does not fit the production method. 3. Implementing a system with specifications that are too high and being unable to utilize it effectively. 4. Not being able to move away from traditional business methods, leading to the system not being used even after implementation. In this seminar, we will provide tips to increase the utilization of systems and schedulers for companies that are not making the most of their investments. We encourage you to take this opportunity to participate.

Free membership registrationWe often hear concerns like, 'We are working on reducing inventory, but we are not able to reduce it as much as we would like. Is there anything we can do about it?' A common factor among such companies is that the efforts to reduce inventory are only being carried out on the manufacturing floor. However, a major cause of inventory accumulation lies in the poor flow of goods, and fundamental improvements require initiatives from the production management perspective. This course will explain the approach to inventory reduction from the standpoint of production management. <First 3 minutes available> https://vimeo.com/1021952955 【Date and Time】 On-demand distribution!

Free membership registrationProduction management systems and schedulers are one of the essential and highly effective tools in the manufacturing industry, which engages in manufacturing. When a company reaches a certain scale, the number of products becomes enormous, and the materials and parts exceed the range that can be controlled manually, making these systems indispensable for managing operations. However, the reality is that many companies report that despite having implemented systems, they are not being utilized effectively, have become inefficient, or there is uncertainty about what kind of information processing is being conducted. There are specific reasons and clear causes for this situation. This article will explain the methods to unravel these causes and enhance the utilization of the current systems. ◆ Recommended for workplaces like this! ◆ - Feeling anxious about the future transmission of technology - Limited number of people who can use the system - The system's contents are obscured due to extensive customization - The new system has resulted in increased operational hours compared to before - The system has been implemented but is not being utilized effectively

Free membership registrationMechanical components refer to individual parts or elements used in the operation of machines and devices. Their range includes switches and sensors, as well as valves and pumps, among others. Most products are assembled by humans using processed parts, which means productivity depends on people, resulting in a production plan with excess capacity and longer lead times. Production plans are influenced by market conditions such as capital investment, but if demand fluctuations can be responded to swiftly, there will be no confusion on the shop floor due to plan changes or troubles. This seminar will explain how to fundamentally review the production management system to achieve lead time reduction and improve productivity. ◆ Recommended for workplaces like this! ◆ - Frequent plan changes and troubles leading to regular delays in delivery - The shop floor is overflowing with parts and work-in-progress - Slow response to demand fluctuations resulting in high inventory - Frequent quality defects leading to a normalization of rework - Chronic defects that cannot be resolved, causing recurring complaints

Free membership registrationThe molding machines are characterized by their large number of components, which significantly impacts human productivity. In the current context of increasing worker mobility, it seems that molding machine manufacturers are finding it difficult to respond to fluctuations in demand. Particularly, the inability to train new employees has delayed their readiness for immediate contribution, and it is a common sight in many factories to see managers and supervisors running around on the shop floor. This seminar will introduce steps to enhance the ability to respond to the increasingly serious labor shortage by managing on-site skills across the entire factory, as well as hints to overcome the current stagnation in production capacity. ◆Recommended for workplaces like this!◆ - I feel that production capacity has decreased compared to a few years ago. - We have relied on temporary workers every time there is an increase in production. - Sudden responses ultimately fall to the veterans. - The turnover rate is gradually increasing. - The shop floor is at the mercy of design, leading to a decline in improvement capabilities.

Free membership registrationHas your company already implemented a scheduler? Are you currently rearranging plans manually using Excel? You may have considered several schedulers to ease this challenging planning task, but many of you might have given up due to unexpectedly high costs. Alternatively, some of you may have implemented a scheduler, but found that operating it involves considerable effort, leading to a situation where you still rely on manual processes. It’s important to understand that simply implementing a scheduler does not mean everything will be executed automatically. You must not neglect the preparations that need to be made before implementation, and you should carefully evaluate the truly necessary functions before proceeding. In this seminar, a consultant who has provided implementation support to many valve manufacturers will briefly explain the key points to keep in mind. For more details, please visit the seminar URL on our company website.

Free membership registrationEvery time a new order comes in, we struggle with adjusting the delivery schedule. We often receive various consultations from valve manufacturers who want to make it easier to change plans. When we inquire about the actual situation, we find that specifications are not decided, drawings are delayed, parts are not arriving as scheduled, and the parts that do arrive have poor quality. It becomes clear that these short lead-time orders are already exceeding production capacity. If we were to solve all the issues that valve manufacturers are currently facing, the effort and costs involved would be far from realistic. Therefore, the seminar that Astec is presenting this time will introduce what can be efficiently achieved using a production scheduler and what the manufacturing side should prepare for this purpose.

We're short on line workers, so I would like to request some support." Site Manager O: "That's a problem. Which line has some capacity? Who can we assign for support?" Line Leader F: "It seems like all lines are quite tight on manpower." Line Leader G: "My line doesn't seem to have the capacity to send support." Line Leader J: "I checked the numbers for our line as well, and it looks like we can't send any support." Line Leader A: "If no one can come to support, there's nothing we can do; our line will handle it with overtime." Site Manager O: "I apologize for having to rely on overtime. If we had a system in place to respond to sudden worker absences, we could act immediately..." Line Leader A: "It would be great if we could see the load situation for each line in real-time."

Free membership registrationTo summarize "Digital Transformation," it refers to adapting to changes in the business environment, shifting and differentiating one's organization, systems, and services to digital, and establishing a competitive advantage. To achieve this, the following steps are taken: The first step is simply the digitization of specific operations and areas (digitization). The second step is the digitalization of business flows and processes (digitalization). The third step involves restructuring the entire workflow of the company, utilizing digital technologies to develop new businesses and build new business models. Only at this point does it finally become "Digital Transformation (DX)." It is also true that many companies working on promoting DX face challenges. If you have concerns regarding system implementation or utilization, please feel free to contact us or download the PDF for more details.

Free membership registrationIn the electronic components industry, after shifting to increased production due to supply shortages, there has now been an oversupply, leading to large inventories and prolonged inventory adjustments. A significant factor in this situation is the impact of market conditions, but it is also due to the inability of companies to establish production management and systems that can respond to changes in the market environment. The electronic components industry has been engaged in mass production for a long time, resulting in production methods that are difficult to adjust in response to market conditions. This seminar will explain how to quickly respond to changes in the market environment and maintain inventory at appropriate levels.

Free membership registrationThe recent sharp decline in profit margins for basic and general-purpose chemical manufacturers can be attributed to the significant advancement in multi-product production compared to the past, which has led to confusion in managing the "inventory" that was previously relied upon for production. Additionally, the aspect of multi-product production has made it difficult to train operators. In this seminar, we will explain that establishing a production management system based on multi-product compatibility is essential to overcome this confusion, and we will introduce hints for stable production! We hope you will attend!

Free membership registrationMany process-oriented companies are increasingly required to respond to diverse customer QCD demands with a variety of products and variations. However, resolving equipment constraints in plants is not easy, and many efforts remain focused on on-site improvements. As a result, fundamental measures cannot be implemented, which may actually lead to the exhaustion of the workforce. In this seminar, we will explain the selection of production management methods suitable for such process-oriented companies, the proper implementation procedures, and provide detailed introductions on how to promote groundbreaking improvements involving the workforce.

Free membership registrationApril has arrived. Have you seen an increase in new employees at your workplace? In the current domestic environment, new talent is extremely valuable, so please nurture them carefully and as quickly as possible into capable personnel. However, it is also true that the number of domestic workers is gradually decreasing. To ensure the stable development of our company, improving factory productivity remains a significant theme. While it is certainly important to raise the level of improvement activities from the past, the metal parts processing workplace is progressing towards a variety of small quantities, and there are significant fluctuations in orders, making the actual situation in the workplace difficult to see. As a result, productivity does not increase as intended. In this seminar, we will explain how to create a flow by connecting the poor collaboration between workplaces through production planning. Additionally, by utilizing a scheduler for production planning, it can be created easily and accurately. We hope to provide hints for considering the introduction of a system that matches your company's price and functionality. We sincerely invite you to attend!

Free membership registrationIn a test equipment manufacturer that relies heavily on manual labor, I must say that the current hiring difficulties in Japan are extremely severe. Additionally, production conditions are changing rapidly, so flexibility to adapt to these changes is also necessary, and we must overcome this challenge with the existing workforce. To achieve this, it is urgent to focus on "improvements in management" rather than merely extending past improvement activities. In this seminar, we will explain strategies for establishing a production plan where production management acts as a control tower to optimize the entire process. This seminar is designed to help you realize that instead of lamenting the labor shortage, there are still steps you can take, so please come and find some hints.
