The team reassessed the collected production data with 1000 times preparing the tool and tool to learn specific steps together, conducted video manipulation analysis and discussed opportunities for improvement. At the end of the analysis, the group agreed on some solutions as follows:

• Switches the tool preparation operation when the machine stops to execution while the machine is machining the part first
• Implement 5S to arrange, rearrange fixtures, measuring tools
• Create stage tags to manage and easily find shared items

From working on the group, it is expected to reduce the time to prepare tools and tools for the S33 and S56 from 29-74 minutes to 16-33 minutes and the number of steps will be reduced from 9 steps to 5 steps.

In the next time, the group will actually implement the agreed solutions and monitor and measure improvement effectiveness, compare with the set target.
