THE READER
Who it's for
You own or run a plant. You are deciding whether to add a line, buy the machine or take the export order. The machine will run for ten years. So will the decision.
INSIDE THE BOOK
What's inside
- How to find the real bottleneck on the floor before you buy capacity.
- A Hosur auto components unit that thinks it needs a second CNC machine, when changeovers wait on one setter.
- A Ludhiana fabricator who trials a welding robot on her own parts and buys one cell instead of two.
- A Kolhapur foundry whose handover stalls because the works manager was never brought in.
- Worksheets and a scorecard for each of the seven stages, from seeing the real problem to carrying out the decision.
All cases are illustrative, not real people or companies.
