摘要
Magnivision, an American Greetings Company, is located in Miramar, Florida. We mass produce over the counter Reading Glasses, which are distributed through retail outlets. Innovative thinking helped the "Clearly Lean" team develop a method change which created a more efficient work flow, reduced manufacturing costs, simplified scheduling and improved customer service. Clearly Lean worked together to convert the assembly operation from a large batch order system to a continuous flow system, using many lean tools. This work resulted in Improved Customer Satisfaction, Better On Time Delivery, More Orders Shipped Complete and a Happier Place to Work!.
