Abstract

Because of the numerous challenges that competitors in the same sectors, particularly in the production industries, manufacturing sectors are now working to improve their performance in order to increase production capacity. The goals of this research are to identify the internal and external SMED activity, to conduct the SMED in production and to propose improvement for increasing production capacity by using SMED. Furthermore, SMED can predict and provide solutions for the company's future state in order to increase production capacity and efficiency in production. Moreover, the second objective is that to conduct the SMED in production. Unnecessary processes, such as value-added activities, will have a negative impact on the company's production changeover time. These causes must be addressed because production productivity and effectiveness will decline, and other competitors will be able to move ahead quickly. In addition, a few tools are employed in order to complete this research. The first step is to define the research problem and goal. The data is then collected through observation as well as company data. An interview is also conducted in order to determine the exact process that occurs within the production line. The Why Why Analysis would then be applied to the data set. This analysis is used to identify the root cause of a problem. The outcome can only be achieved after the data has been analyzed to find solutions to industry problems. Aside from that, an action of optimization and improvement activities using SMED to minimize or eliminate internal activity in production will be suggested to that company.
